Glenn Harrison South Padre Island, Texas Reported: 8 months ago

March has roared in like a lion with spring winds followed by a spectacular calm day or two for sight casting with a fly rod or spinning tackle. Windy days have been good on wind blown shorelines for Redfish on jigs and topwaters with the occasional trophy class Speckled Trout. The color change bite remains strong for school-sized Specks. Find the bait and you find the trout. The calm days have been spent on the skiff with shrimp pattern flies or fluke style baits presented for the taking. Redfish aplenty along with some tremendous trout showing us their back sides! Sheephead remain strong off the jetties for the bait crowd. Did I mention some giant Black Drum? Been keeping a fish strip handy to pitch in front of cruising "big uglies" along the way.

Tavernier, Florida
Reported: 8 months ago

We've been running back to Glades for Snook when the wind allows us to. Voodoo shrimp and DOA have been money. It's been hit or miss around downtown Islamorada on Permit and Tarpon. In the next few weeks, it should be getting good.

Eddie Garrett Alba, Texas Reported: 8 months ago

Lake level is -.27 low, and surface temps are 59 degrees in the morning to 65 in the afternoon. Fish have started spawning now in a lot of areas of the lake with a lot more bass on their way in. We're throwing tx. rigged Senkos 2' to 5' of water in the spawning areas and flats. Also light c-rigs with flukes. I'm booked the rest of March but have good April dates available. It's fishing good and going to get better.

Deer Park, Texas
Reported: 8 months ago

Fishing has been great in the Galveston complex—redfish and trout in the back bays. It's been very windy here. But still catching fish in the backwaters to book a trip call Captain Experience.

Trip: Laguna Half Day Run
★★★★★
We had the most wonderful experience with Captain Marc (and Brenda). My son and I went on a half-day excursion in Novemeber during our Thanksgiving trip and it was such a great bonding time for the two of us. Captain Marc is super generous, knowledgable and patient. We highly recommend him and his fishing guidance:). My son was particularly excited about having his trout cleaned and getting to serve it to us that evening. All around A+.

Joe took us on a wonderful and very active fishing trip. Joe has hosted me and my family prior so we knew we would enjoy another trip with him. He made us feel like family. Joe is very familiar with great fishing spots. He accommodates with great tips, instructions, and caters to everyone in the boat to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Thanks Joe look forward to seeing you on our next trip! Blessings and happy holidays!
