Im headed to the Packery channel jetties today. Wondering if any fishing reports? Ill post something in the next days. We hope to catch and release many. I didnt bring my fish cleaning gear or ice chests to keep anything other than a couple adult beverages. LOL.
Tight lines!

Well.. the wind was blowing pretty hard Sat afternoon. Waves were high on the surf side. So we had to fish the channel. Wife caught about 10 sandies. I caught all hard heads. We didnt see any reds or specs come off the jetties. We also didnt see any mullet in the channel or surf. I bought bought live shrimp. So we used live shrimp. No luck.
We are still here Sunday. Wifey not feeling well today. Fishing the channel near our car and the port-o-potty. No winds. No mullet either. Wife caught a rat red so far. Lots of sea weed on the lines. Fishing with fresh dead shrimp and frozen mullet. To cheap to buy live today. Not much being caught today either. Heading home around 11am. Coming back next weekend. Then done for the year.
Shut up and fish!

The packery is usually good for bullreds this time of year. Mullet heads fished on the bottom work for me. Mullet heads only not the body just the head. Also try corpusfishing.com has lots of info. Good luck next weekend

According to google and CC NAS; Looks like its gonna be cold and extra windy this weekend. Any advice how to fish these conditions? My family still wants to go. I told them to gear up! Its gonna be cold.
Just wondering if it will be worth the 3.5 hr drive from Austin? Any advice appreciated.
Tight lines!
Shut up and fish!

Saturday Nov 10. We arrived at south Packery Channel Jetties at 2pm. fished until dark. 55 degrees, very windy. High Waves. We fished the surf side of the jetty. near the end. wife caught a black drum, and a slot red. we gave the drum to people fishing next to us. My mom caught a nice bull red. we released all other fish. using frozen mullet (cut) on the bottom. no live mullet available at red dot or other bait stores.
We all got wet from the splashing waves. I got soaked trying to help land these fish. All in all, we had a good Saturday fishing. Sunday was cold and rainy. we didn't catch anything. left Corpus Sunday morning by 1030am.
I'll try to attach pics.
tight lines!
