Trout Action
Winds have backed down and the water is responding with turbidity levels subsiding amidst better tidal exchanges. That has Capt. James Cunningham reporting an improving bite for boat fishermen working live bait focusing on Trout. The last few weeks, wade fishermen have had the upper hand with fish penned up on leaward shorelines hammering bait balls working off the guts. As water conditions improve mid-bay, that’s going to open up a lot of structure and set us up for some excellent Fall fishing.
Redfish & Flounder Gigging
Capt. Donnie Heath reported excellent action on Redfish with guests of The Hill Country Safari Club chapter in for a visit over the weekend. It took a little doing with tides elevated from TS Earl but once he tracked them down over heavy grass it was “on”. This was an action packed trip with Flounder Gigging on one evening. The gigging trips are new to some of our guests and it’s so rewarding having them return all pumped up. Rick K. fishing with guests of Martin Automotive were just ecstatic about their floundering trip with Capt’s Heath and Cady.
The Fishing Is Always Best When YOU Can Get Away!!
