Are they catching any at Pack's yet? Reports I have heard are not good.

yes, they are catching rockfish at packs. the average catch is one or two stripers per boat a day. the average weight 10 to 12 pounds. i weighed a 16 pounder yesterday. they are also catching more big catfish than ever. the bigest one yet was a 60 pound blue. probally have weighed 20 or more thirty pounders. all blue cats with just a few flatheads coming end. we are expecting a huge catch this weekend...

Glad to here that you all are getting into them. JP, sorry about backing out on the trip a while back but had to replace a rotten band board on the house. Hope that I can slip down there for a weekend sometime and do some fishing. I have been slammed for the past few weeks trying to get my deck built but this warm weather is driving me crazy.

i hope you can make the drive down soon. the spring run is starting now. we are going to be about four weeks earlier this year. a warm winter has everything cranking early.the big cats are in three foot of water now.
