Fishing has started to heat up with warmer temps. Live shrimp and popping corks doing most of the damage right now.

Well this weather has been crazy but can still put my clients on fish. Between high winds and super low tides we have found success.

Fishing has been great on the bite during mid and ending of tides. Keepers other than black drum have been a hit or miss. The schooling size reds are plentiful. Small trout running the shallows, larger trout are staying deep still along the channel. Fish have been hitting live and dead shrimp and mid water plastics

I continue to beat up on the red fish. The marsh has begun to fill back up. And the redfish are flooding in. We have been catching them with artificials and live shrimp. The trout bite has been slow for me. I just haven't been targeting them. Seems like we are having an early spring, water temperatures have already been in the upper 70 degrees. Wind will be the big issue going forward till June. This will only play into my hands, because I have bee catching fish in some very dirty water.

Fishing has been great lately in the bayous and marsh with the recent warmer weather. We have been using live shrimp under popping corks targeting the reefs and ledges along deeper water. Should only get better as we go into spring and early summer.

Fishing has been slow for us, due to the weather and low tides. Making the water dirty and tough fishing.

    A+. I gave Ralph five 16-year-old boys of varying fishing experience, and he handled them. We will use him again!

    Out guide, Kevin, did an excellent job, and I would highly recommend him. There were four of us in our group including 2 experienced anglers, one semi experienced, and one who was very inexperienced. Kevin did a great job keeping everyone involved, baited, and altered approaches based on skill level. He worked very hard to put us on fish. He even cleaned our fish at the end of the trip. Again, I would higly recommend.
