Hit Hanna Park lot 1 with the little ones. Just wanted to get out and fish, but also had heard the Whiting bite was off the hook. Wouldn't have minded filling up the cooler. First line in at 1:30 about two and a half hours into the incoming tide. Water clarity was o.k. not great but it shouldn't interfere with catching. Surprised the seas were so calm not a real chop but steady waves about 2 ft. Winds out of the North 5-10. That part of Hanna is normally high impact with lots of cuts and holes. It's been so long since there was a really good storm it's completely flat. Not, cuts, no troughs nothing.
First fish was caught on the 7' rod which was in maybe a foot of water. Blue. Oh, no, here we go again! Catching was slow and I was very happy the next fish was a 14" whiting. Things are looking up! Well, over the course of the next three and a half hours we caught a dozen whiting with only one more keeper. The rest were babies barely able to make the rod dangle.
Finished up at 5pm. Bait was shrimp though Idid buy some frozen fleas for the trip south next week from B&M Bait and Tackle.
