It’s that time of year when marsh fishing slows due to the heat. The bite is usually good early and earlier. The bite shuts off right about the time you feel yourself baking like a sun-dried tomato. With water temperatures in the marsh are hovering in the 90’s most fish […]

I went out solo a couple times over the weekend. I found plenty of reds in the marsh but the feeding window was short very early in the morning. The fish were also extra weary of my presence because of the low water levels. Lost count of the number of […]
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 planned to the fish the second stop of the XRT kayak trail this past Saturday but that intention was axed when news arrived late Friday night that the tournament was postponed due to the conditions.

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 […]
When I saw the wind forecasts early in the week for Easter weekend I saw a challenge. I am no stranger 20-30mph winds, especially on the Coastal Bend during spring. Over the years I’ve fished in lot of tough conditions. I can recall one trip last year when a buddy, […]
