Weekend bait?
« on: February 08, 2017, 06:53:44 AM »
I'll probably be venturing out this weekend in search of grinners. Hoping to get a heads up on the bait situation. Any piers had macks lately? Are the perch or croaker showing down south?

No croaker or perch from what I've heard.  Lots of mack out in open water, but I have not heard what the piers are doing.  Steve would know the Oceanside pier bait reports.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

The most reliable info I have was macks were being caught from Crystal Pier right before the first round of storms hit.

If you have to, hit up one of the Chinese stores.  They usually hav fresh maks.

I'm not sure I'd call them "fresh"... "fit for human consumption" is pushing it I think

The ones I get are fresh, they bleed a ton.
