The big girls are starting to show up in the Upper Laguna Madre and Baffin Bay. We’ve been doing really well on Speckled Trout up to 27" on artificials. Now through March is the time to catch a fish of a lifetime!

Fishing the bays and back lakes for redfish and a few black drum on cut mullet and sardines. Jetty fishing has been good for bull reds and slots with a few black drum, mangrove snapper, and black drum. Sheepshead should start showing up any time.

Captain Pat went out of his way to make sure our trip a huge success. He even went a few minutes over our time just to make sure my 13 year old daughter was able to put that one last fish in the boat. She will remember that moment for the rest of her life thanks to Pats hard work and dedication. I can’t recommend him enough!

One of the hardest working fellows I have ever seen. I cannot believe he was not completely exhausted. Not a great night, but not for lack of effort. We corralled a few flounder and, before dusk set, we caught a few drum and trout. Fine fellow.
