Over Sixty Whiting -- Freezer Full
Well, by the late afternoon yesterday, I have caught over 60 Whiting this week since Sunday and the one keeper Black Drum on my birthday. I only kept 4 of the biggest Whiting yesterday and released the others after my piece of Fish Bites had dissolved -- leaving me time to hit Bernies for a couple $1 drafts. I had caught a few small Pinfish at the Packery Channel yesterday before hitting the nearby Walmart for some more supplies (food and tackle).
I decided to use the live Pinfish for bait back at the shipping channel in Port Aransas after using up all my stinky, 3 day old bought shrimp. All the spots along the jetty at Packery channel were already taken when I arrived there and since I had gotten a warning ticket for not having a Corpus Christi parking permit while I walked the short jetty, I went into a park farther back along the channel where I caught the Pinfish.
When I arrived at the shipping channel, two of the Pinfish were dead so, I found the nearest small Pelicans and fed them each a meal. The live Pinfish didn't get any bites so, I fed them to another couple of Pelicans and broke out the Fish Bites to get those other Whiting (still need to clean them this morning). Still trying to figure out where and when to fish today (if at all) but, may go ahead and suck some shrimp first in case I want to try for some Sheepshead.
Finally able to attach a couple pictures so you can see some of the week's catch -- starting last Saturday with the Red Snapper trip.
