Friday: I met up with Jaime to fish a marsh I hadn’t seen since last year. It’s about an hour paddle via kayak to get to this marsh. I told him the night before that we were going to make a long paddle and to be prepared. I don’t think […]
Texas
We finally turned the corner from spring and got a break from the winds last week. But the break comes at a price in the form of the heat. Summer here on the Texas coast has arrived. This is the most consistent time of year for an early morning bite […]
The second stop of the IFA Tour is at Rockport, Texas this weekend, May 14th & 15th. The boaters compete on Saturday followed by the kayakers on Sunday. I won’t be fishing the event but if you’re in the area be sure to check out the weigh-in. More details here… […]
I am in the process of putting together a video from footage I shot speckled trout fishing this past winter. I got a ton of footage but I never got what I wanted. I’ll be back out there again next winter better equiped and more determined. Here’s some of the […]
I was on the water a few times over the last week and the fishing was pretty slow overall. Not a whole lot of fish landed or spotted. You know the fishing has been bleak when some of the most respected guides in the area are having a tough time […]
Spring is the most inconsistent time of the year. The weather is all over the place and the wind is almost always blowing hard one direction or the other, but sometimes things come together. Most of this footage was captured a few weeks ago when a late season cold front […]
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 […]
This Saturday April 9, 2011 is the first tournament of the year for the Xtreme Redfish Tournament Trail. The weigh-in is at Port Neches Park in Port Neches, Texas near Beaumont. I only fished one tournament all of last year, so I’m excited to get back behind the helm and […]
Evidence of the arrival of spring is everywhere: flip-flop weather, schools of newly hatched fry, herds of hungry fish prowling the shallows and tropical storm-like winds. Finding a reliable pattern during spring, more than any other season, is tough. Conditions are highly inconsistent and fish behavior mirrors the unpredictable weather. […]
Tomorrow is WestEndAngler’s annual Winter Trout Tournament for anyone that’s interested in fishing a fun/relaxed tournament. Last I heard there is somewhere in the neighborhood of 70 entries and there’s sure to be more because registration is open until right before the tournament starts. As long as you’re entered online before […]
