Another trip to the Lower Laguna Madre in the books. Over a week later I’m still recovering from the long, arduous but satisfying trip. Six of us made the trek, five from Houston and one from Corpus. The group included four newbies who had never fished the hypersaline lagoon in […]

The most recent cold front is a reminder that we’re nearing the end of the redfish explosion in the marshes on the Texas Coast. Over the last few weeks most of the shrimp has migrated to the Gulf leaving fin-fish as the only remaining forage available for a ravenous redfish. […]
The arrival of fall begets many changes for anglers on the Texas coast. Artic blasts bring relief from the scorching summer heat, but more importantly, the objects of our fascination begin to fatten up for winter when food sources will be scarce and water temps are too low to warrant […]
Fishing has been flat-out ridiculous on the Upper Texas Coast. Huge schools of redfish everywhere you look. The water has cleaned up nicely with the passing of the last few cold fronts too making the fish a lot easier to spot and catch. It’s been a sight fisherman’s dream in […]
Greg and I fished the second stop of the Xtreme Redfish Tournament Trail out of Harborwalk Marina in Hitchcock, Texas last weekend. I haven’t fished around Galveston much lately, and leading up to the tournament we weren’t on any heavy fish. We planned to swing for the fences and fish […]
I have been blessed to be raised on the Texas Gulf Coast my entire life. Born in the Houston metropolis I was introduced to saltwater fishing at an early age. Not as early as some, but I have been wetting a line in saline waters for well over a decade […]
I’m still recouping from the weekend that consisted of as many hours behind the wheel and as hours on the water. Like most things that are fun it was also exhausting. This past Saturday was the first stop of the Xtreme Redfish Trail (XRT) in Port Neches, Texas. A total […]
I went for an evening wade the night before the tournament to check out a spot for the tourney. Greg and I fished for about few hours without a nibble until after dark. I ended up landing 2 small reds and 2 solid trout, including a 26.5″ 6+lb trout. All […]
Greg and I put a lot miles on our vehicles and kayaks last weekend without very much success. We started out targeting reefs and guts in search of trout early with only a few bites, so we switch modes and started searching for redfish on shorelines. We found a few […]
I have been out several times since I last posted a fishing report with varying levels of success. I hit several locations including areas in East Bay, West Bay, and spots as far west as Freeport. Fishing has gone from good last week to downright slow early this week even […]
