Corpus Christi and Baffin Bay fishing has been consistent but we have been moving and drifting alot more to pickup our limits. Once we get a cold blast of air fishing should improve especially for redfish which are starting their migration to the bays. Look for large schools in grass flats close to gulf outlets. Croaker season has come to a close but larger trout and redfish are still snacking on piggies in the medium size range. Drifting close to spoils has produced best results. Tight lines!

fishing the upper Laguna Madre has been good, finally our winds have been cooperating and in return fishing has been really good. I have been wading and fishing out of the boat for Speckled Trout and Red fish, wether you are through in live bait or lures the bite has been good in the early morning either on the beach front or the bays. We finally got a little rain and the salinity levels dropped which will help the future bite. For live bait we have been using live Crocker and piggy pearch, the lure have been either down south...

For live bait we have been using live Crocker and piggy pearch, the lure have been either down south or gulps with sent, I started using a different retrieve this year and it's been amazing to see the difference, just cast and reel like you would a spoon, bounce it off the bottom above the grass and if they are there, they will hit it. With live bait, we have been anchored off the shoreline we're the water color changes, fish the color change, that's were the fish have been, good luck and tight lines,

Fishing is heating up here on our beautiful Laguna Madre! Corpus Christi Texas's bay system hosts one of the biggest bull red migrations. Beginning now and moving into the late fall and early winter, schools are starting to move on the flats that border deeper water on their movement out to the Gulf of Mexico.
Nice sized trout are being caught on grass lines that border deep drop offs and we are catching good numbers of redfish and trout on the flats with plastic lures and spoons.
Fishing should only get better as we head into the fall months!

    Went with Jay on Jan 19, 2026. He was very amicable and told us just what to expect. We ended up with a limit of black drum. The reddish decided to be a little more skittish. Overall, a really nice day and pleasant experience. I would definitely recommend a trip with Jay!
