The bay fishing has been decent throughout the past couple of weeks and the weather has been great. Catching limits of speckled trout on soft plastic artificial baits. The color changes around South Padre are holding speckled trout and redfish. Try finding some baitfish in an area and the gamefish will be nearby. Redfishing has been better on those high wind days. Have spotted several schools of redfish on certain days. I would expect the bite to remain decent as long as the warmer weather conditions remain good.

I put the boat back in the water this morning and took my wife Jill and her good friend April out fishing didn't have to go very far. We were fishing live shrimp under a popping cork with an 1/8 ounce jig. We fished for a couple hours. The wind started blowing pretty hard but we caught three really nice red fish, a bunch of nice keeper trout and a big girl. She was 26 or 27 inches. we took a couple pictures of her and released her right back in to the lower Laguna Madre so somebody else can catch her. The redfish are starting to school up and move into the shallows. If anybody would like to get on some of this action, please get a hold of me.

The bay fishing has remained decent throughout the past weeks. The weather has been great and the fish are biting. Catching solid speckled trout on soft plastics that resemble natural colors. Mullet replica type paddle tail worms have been my "go to "artificial baits. Catching reds on the higher wind days out on grass flats. Fresh cut bait and soft plastics are producing solid redfish strikes. Gold spoons on brighter days are working some days. The best thing about fishing at this time of the year is the drop in the amount of other boats and fishermen on the water. Great time to stretch some lines and hook into some solid fish.

Another brutal windy day down here in South Padre Island, so I went to my mangrove snapper trap line again did really well fish for four hours. Three people caught some really nice mangroves in a 40 mile an hour wind.
