Wade Fishing Guides of Seadrift
Texas top wade fishing guides are focused on meeting the challenges of each and every day with an expectation of finding trophy Trout and Redfish over a variety of structure. Nestled in the small town of Seadrift, Texas you’ll find a great adventure with a top Texas Fishing resort and lodge. Making memories of a lifetime is our job and it all starts with the best Seadrift Bay Fishing Guides here on the mid-coast in Seadrift, Texas. Our Trout and Redfish guides on San Antonio Bay use any number of approaches including wade fishing, airboat fishing, boat fishing, flyfishing, and kayak fishing. Versatility matches the conditions to the goals of our guests where enjoyment and fun are our main focus.
**Fishing Report**
Cool conditions with rain and blustery winds have been replaced with hot, dry, and blustery winds pushing 30 knots. Welcome to May in Texas! I’ve never seen a May that wasn’t full of challenges but also big rewards! Boat fishing for Trout has pretty much been limited since big water venues are shut down and torn up. However, on the wade fishing scene, Trout have been predictable for guests working live bait over sand/grass. Capt. Chris Cady; Capt. James Cunningham; and Capt. Braden Proctor have all been reporting solid Trout and decent numbers.
Boat fishing guides continue to pursue solid Redfish action ranging from barrier island back lakes to brackish upper Delta inflow marsh. The brackish backwaters are almost an eco-tour all by themselves as alligator and freshwater fin and fowl mix in. Guides reported lots of run ins with Alligator Gar while pulling Redfish out of the mix as well. Those toothy fish are something else and lots of fun to catch.
We’ll be looking to break out of this elevated wind pattern as June draws near and returning to more traditional light winds early before ramping up into the mid-teens mid-day.
**Lodge News**
We’re proud to welcome Orvis to our great line-up of sponsors on the fly fishing scene. We’re bringing in their top of the line Helios 3 rods and their Maverick and Hydros reels in 6 to 8 wt.
