A beautiful red this morning with Ashley using cut crab. Young Lady with a 28” red catching with cut mullet. A 30” Big Red For A Young Fisherman in a Small Creek. The Capt with a Full Limit of Reds 30”28”24”22” a good day.

The bay fishing has remained decent throughout the past week. Sheepshead are still thick at the jetties if the weather permits. Catching speckled trout all over the bay on soft plastics and live shrimp under corks. Try to find some deeper water near a transition into a shallower drop off. Fish are moving up and down these water depth changes. Redfishing has been better in the afternoon. Once the wind picks up the bite heats up as well. Expect it to be a busy spring break for fishing.

With the passing of what hopefully will be the last big cold front of the year, fishing has warmed back up along with the weather. Yesterday was speckled trout on spinning tackle with a nice family from Minnesota. Today was fly fishing on my Maverick's gift for redfish and trophy trout. We have a SpaceX launch scheduled for Friday, which should be outstanding as the weather looks good through the middle of next week at least. Time for a geographical cure; come see me in South Padre Island!

The bay fishing is starting to get interesting. Lots of sheepshead moving along the rocks at the jetties. Just need calmer weather to go get after them. Some bull reds are showing up there also. As the water temperature warms up after the cold weather we had last week expect the bite to only heat up as well. Speckled trout and redfish will move out deeper water in search of warmer temperatures and begin feeding on prey as it moves out shallower. Schools of black drum will also be easy targets once warmer water temperatures rise.

We had such a fantastic time with Tim! We took the half-day tour, and we even wrapped it up early because we had limited out on Trout. Tim was such a great and funny guide, showing us how and where to throw the bait/lures so we could catch fish—and we did! I would definitely recommend Tim for your next fishing trip to SPI. We’re always booking with Tim when we’re back here.
We had a great time with Capt Marc and his wife Brandy. He is very knowledgeable about the Bay waters and knows exactly where to go to get you an ce chest full of fish! We will be booking again for sure!
Marc and his wife, Brandy, were super fun to fish with! We didn’t have the best catch day, but they were so fun and accommodating. We will fish with them again!
Cappy was a great guide. Helpful hints, helped throwing lines, quick to bait our hook, tried several places until we hit the jackpot. Maxed out allowed fish. Entertaining and pleasant to be around. Book him, you can 't go wrong.
