Summary: The red tide is clearing up some with little seaweed. I was using plastic grubs on caroline rig. Eggsinker weight was 3/4 oz with 6lb main line and 6lb test on leader. Hook size was #8. Grubs were Motor Oil/red flake and clear and Red Flake. Most Barred Perch came off of motor oil/red flake. Also, use herring scent on grubs. Sizes of perch were 8", 7 1/2", 7" and smallier. I must say the beach is so relaxing. There guys there that had nice size yellowfin Croaker from Sand crabs. My self went ligth with 7' light action rod. Next time will bring long rod. Most important I am learning more about power plant surf zones and the way tide move sand to locate fish better. That all for now. Happy Fishing!!!
