Pacemaker Fishing Forum

Today, Bob and I took the Hobie PA's out in search of some monster perch. It was a beautiful morning....



.....except for a full frontal of east wind!

We had rollers up o 2' coming in between the jetty.

We got through it and started working the lee of the wood wall. We both got nipped a few times. Bob cught a small perch and I caught an almost 10 incher (white perch).

These guys were active at the mouth of the jetty, where it was a washing machine!



Bob then ventured out to the north rocks and soon I followed suit.



We each got nipped and all I got was this guy....



....and a small striper.

I then decided to fish inside the creek while Bob stayed out.

Not too much later, my rudder was jamming (as was the wind) so I called it a day.

Bob stayed out and we chatted for a bit as it started to lay down some.

On the way home, I get a call and Bob advises me that he caught "a 13.5 incher.....with a spit on the tail". He had me for a moment....rat red!

The Hobie performed well through the waves...never  rocked or rolled even though a few waves came over the bow.
