Fishing has been consistently good for Redfish and Sheepshead, with a grab bag of other species. Black Drum, Seatrout, Jacks and Mangrove Snappers have all been in the mix. If the weather stays warm, expect Snook and Tarpon action to heat up quick!

Fishing report from Glenn H.
in South Padre Island, Texas

Black Drum
Winter time fishing has been solid throughout the south Padre Island area. Snook and large trout remain plentiful in the Brownsville ship channel. Many of my trips have been with less experienced anglers and we have been focusing on speckled trout in deeper water with great success. The wonderful thing about being this far south is that "winter "means the temperature dropped into the 60s with highs near 80s during the day. Of course we get a cold front or two that slows fishing For a day as the front passes but the weather warms right back up quickly. Red fishing has been consistent with top water action along with soft plastics being the ticket. Find the bait and the fish are there with them. Fly fishing trips have been outstanding during the extreme low tides that we have. Fish become concentrated and wafing for tailing red fish has been the name of the game. Fishing will remain consistent and only get better as spring progresses.

Took a short trip out to the reef and although the water was cold, the bite was hot! Fishing is great over here, even in the winter - hit us up! Found the Flounder last week not far off the beaches. They were eating cut bait AND soft plastics. The winds kept us inside the intracoastal, but we still got some action in the protected waters. Took a nice couple on a half day trip and landed some nice Mango Snapper AND a kicker Tripletail.

Big Ugly Fight I knew once the warmer weather came in id have abother shot at this Big black drum that ive been trying to get on my last 4 charters and finally got him. I waited to get him on an incoming tide right by a piling on top of an oyster bed. We were getting bites on the prawn and big live shrimp an finally nailed him. My charter client who was 71 years old was so happy! Took a team effort but we got em. I usually can get them on high tide at the bridges. He was caught on the pass piling of the Dunlawton bridge.

With the cooler clean Crystal Clearwater site Fishing has been at its best catching great numbers of redfish, black drum and speckled sea trout. I expect with the weather forecast over the next couple weeks for the bike to remain very good and the site Fishing to be at its best January and February can be some of the best fishing in the Mosquito lagoon
