Chasing Big Bertha! on the Packery Channel (Corpus Christi TX)

[@gerardohuerta6925]

Thrill of the hunt

[@mond000]

Love the drone shots! Caught a nice flounder there on mullet 10 years ago, when you could drive and park on the other side of the channel by the bridge. Something else spooled me on a light reel that day also as I was casting a spoon in the swirling tide whirlpool.

Lol, yes, I call it the toilet bowl I passed across on my buddies boat a few months back, and on his sonar I saw 30 feet in that whirlpool

Bruh, I parked there and waded that area and pulled out a few trout. One guy was pulling some nice redfish on cut ladyfish and mullet. I had one redfish on a live finger mullet.

Yes, C.J. Fish gotta pass thru, haha

@@larasfishingchronicles9301 the funny thing is I didn't catch any in the channel. Only the area by the trucks. No one was catching in the channel that Thursday.

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

Ohhhhhh! I see 🤔

[@PRODUCTWZ]

Try chasing those fish later time and they wouldn’t eat anything

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

I believe their favorite food is crabs that why I believe they get on top of the Oyster Shell. That's where you would find them

What drone done you use?

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

The Budget Friendly DJI Mini 2 se

[@rsg9190]

Hey Lara not trying to start 💩or put da finger on anyone but what’s the law say bout using drones to canvas a large area for fishing? Just curious don’t have a drone and don’t fish as much as I wish😢😂

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

From my understanding, you can not use a drone to bring a fish in by line and hook from what I read seems like for hunting you can not use a drone to survey area for game unless you get a permit

[@rsg9190]

@@larasfishingchronicles9301 just a matter of time till tpw puts a law up I guess

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

Or hopefully, get a license to do so I am Part 107 license, so I am educated in drone laws and regulations with the FAA

What the heck was that thing coming out of the water at 4:50?

Why don’t you try live bait like croakers

[@larasfishingchronicles9301]

I don't really target drum, nor do I really use bait. I'm a sight cast fisherman at heart. Black Drum will sometimes take a lure, but if had my sights on drum I would bring bait, hence the dead shrimp or crab as for Live Croaker is a good bait if yur fishing for game fish other than Drum 😁 Roger
