Redfish and drum are holding steady on drains after cold fronts, lots of good specs on the flats when the water warms up.

Hey! Good morning, started back up this week after the holidays. Water temps have cooled off and water temps have dropped. Surf is full of big redfish slots and oversize. At the same time the sharks, stingrays and trash fish have all gone to deeper waters and are very rare for the next few months. I expect the bite to continue to be mid-day & afternoon as the waters warm up and get the bait moving

Rockport/Aransas Pass area, we have had a great weather pattern lately as well as lower tides. Those 2 things combined have resulted in some great catching days. Water temps in low 70s, air temps in upper 70s, fish have gotten concentrated in drains and guts. I only use artificial baits, fishing over grass flats with pots holes close to deeper water. Downsouth lures, Pavlures, knocking tail lures with soft dines and double Ds. Multiple flavors all based on water clarity. Incorporating the major and minors will help give you more opportunities to catch fish.

    Great time with Larry! He knew the fishery very well. He got us on to trout almost immediately. 10/10 would do again!

    James was an awesome guy. Just a normal guy that you could enjoy your trip with and catch fish. Had great conversation and put us on the fish when things were slow.. I highly recommend him and I would use him again. For sure.

    Great morning with Travis. Got us onto fish straight away and our two boys loved it. A 30” redfish started things off and we finished with a 5-6ft alligator gar, with plenty of others between them. Highly recommend a trip out with Travis!

    Had a fantastic time fishing with Robert in Rockport last Wednesday. He was knowledgeable, professional, and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable from start to finish. You can tell he really knows the area and works hard to put you on fish. Great communication, well-organized trip, and just an all-around great guide. We had a lot of fun and created some awesome memories out on the water. Highly recommend booking with Robert if you’re in Rockport — we’ll definitely be back!

    My boys and I had an outstanding trip with James. Great boat, top-notch gear, and he put us right on the fish. The boys had an absolute blast, and it was a memory we won’t forget. Highly recommend — five stars all around!

    Trip: Redfish On The Fly

  • ★★★★★
    Chase was great! We had so much fun and caught our limit of big redfish, then gigged 4 nice flounder before the weather rolled in. We caught about 8 additionall redfish that we threw back…along with the huge tarpon my husband caught. And the area we fished was absolutely gorgeous. A dream fishing trip!!! Thanks a million again to Chase!

    My party had a terrific time! James is one of the best guides I’ve had the pleasure to meet and fish with. I recommend him without any reservation, and confident that regardless of your skills and abilities, James can and will help you and your group have the best trip possible.

    A little bit of a tough day. Saw lots of fish but they just were not biting, but Travis went above and beyond and found a pocket of tailing Red. He found fish and put me on them and that is exactly what you pay a guid to do. Great job!!!
