Fishing has been great! We've been experiencing upper slot and oversized red fish and trout! Throwing popping cork and shrimp/artificial shrimp has proved to be the key. Fishing conditions have been nice with 65-80 degrees. And okay winds 👍🏽 We are drift fishing for the reds and trout and channel fishing anchored down for the black drum

My neighbor Mike and I got them pretty good today. Really nice grade of red snapper and a bonus grouper that was just a little short had to release him weather was fantastic. It's nice when we get some calm seas and we can sneak out and catch some awesome snapper seen a few cobia today. Couldn't get them to go, but they're always fun to see swimming around the boat.

The bay fishing has been decent throughout the past couple of weeks and the weather has been great. Catching limits of speckled trout on soft plastic artificial baits. The color changes around South Padre are holding speckled trout and redfish. Try finding some baitfish in an area and the gamefish will be nearby. Redfishing has been better on those high wind days. Have spotted several schools of redfish on certain days. I would expect the bite to remain decent as long as the warmer weather conditions remain good.

We were fishing live shrimp under a popping cork with an 1/8 ounce jig. We fished for a couple hours. The wind started blowing pretty hard but we caught three really nice red fish, a bunch of nice keeper trout and a big girl. She was 26 or 27 inches. we took a couple pictures of her and released her right back in to the lower Laguna Madre so somebody else can...
