Nasty Fishing Conditions Today

Today I got up before daylight and ventured down to the bay to try for jumbo perch.  Just as I got set up, it started downpouring and I was soaked within a couple minutes.  I was almost ready to call it quits when it suddenly quit raining so I decided to fish a little while.  The bite was slow as the waves started to grow.  The wind was blowing hard out of the west and the bay was engulfed with 5 foot swells.  The south pier was unfishable. 

All I could do, was drop my bait next to the wall and hope that some fish were close.  I got a few bites and then managed to catch a couple nice perch around 10 - 11 inches.  The sun then appeared as the sky cleared while the wind was howling hard.  I gave up with my two fish and will try again soon.  Good luck fishing!
