  • "Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Trout, Reds, and More Await Anglers as Cold Front Approaches"

    "Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Trout, Reds, and More Await Anglers as Cold Front Approaches"
    Nov 2 2024
    As of November 2, 2024, the fishing scene along the Texas Gulf Coast is looking promising, despite the recent end of flounder season on November 1.

    ### Weather and Tides
    The weather is expected to be warm and sunny before a cold front moves in early next week, bringing north winds and cloudy skies. Currently, the southeast winds are steady, keeping the water levels normal to above normal. Sunrise today is at around 7:00 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 5:30 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    In the Gulf Coast region, particularly around Galveston Bay and the Sabine Channel, fish activity is robust. Speckled trout and redfish are abundant, especially when the winds are calm. Trout are being caught in 35-40 feet of water around the gulf rigs using LSU-colored 3-inch plastics. When the winds pick up, drifting in the Sabine Channel and Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) is yielding limits of trout and redfish off points, drops, shell flats, and rock piles with live shrimp under a popping cork.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For trout, the Wacky fluke in code red color paired with a 1/4 ounce jig head is working well in scattered shell flats about 5 feet deep. Redfish are responding to live shrimp, piggy perch, cut skipjack, or mullet on the flats, sand pockets, and along islands. Silver spoons are also effective for redfish at the north and south jetties in Port Aransas. Black drum are being caught on live or dead shrimp and fish bites in drains, sand pockets, and along oyster beds.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Neches River**: This area is now fishable and producing a mixed bag of speckled trout and redfish off points, drops, and rock piles.
    - **Sabine Channel and ICW**: Drifting here is producing limits of trout and redfish when the winds are blowing.
    - **Port Aransas**: The north and south jetties are hot spots for slot and oversized redfish using silver spoons, shrimp, and cut mullet or skipjack.

    ### Additional Tips
    Sheepshead and drum are tight to rock shorelines and can be caught on live shrimp under a popping cork. With the forecasted cold front, bird action is expected to increase throughout the system, which can lead to better fishing opportunities. Remember to be mindful of duck hunters on shorelines and back lake systems as the Texas Waterfowl first split starts today.

    Overall, it's a great time to get out and enjoy the fishing on the Texas Gulf Coast, with plenty of fish to be caught and favorable conditions.

  • Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Forecast: Mild Weather, Mixed Bag of Catches, and Conservation Reminders

    Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Forecast: Mild Weather, Mixed Bag of Catches, and Conservation Reminders
    Nov 1 2024
    As of November 1, 2024, the fishing scene along the Texas Gulf Coast is looking promising, despite the transitioning weather patterns.

    ### Weather and Tides
    The weather is mild, with water temperatures ranging from 77 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit in different areas of the Gulf Coast. Expect partly cloudy skies with a gentle breeze, ideal for a day on the water. Sunrise was at around 7:30 AM, and sunset will be around 6:00 PM. Tides are moderate, with mid-tide periods offering the best fishing conditions, especially around the shallow rock shorelines and shell flats.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a mixed bag of catches across various locations. In Galveston Bay, speckled trout and redfish were active, particularly around the West shoreline and near the Kemah channel. Birds working over schools of trout in the open bay from the HL & P spillway to the mouth of the Trinity River were a common sight. Redfish were tight to the shoreline, feeding heavily on shrimp in shallow water, while trout were schooling up on shell flats.

    In Port Aransas, redfish were on fire at the tip of the north and south jetties, taking shrimp and cut mullet or menhaden. Trout were also good, caught with croaker, piggy perch, or shrimp free-lined along rocks. Silver spoons produced good results for redfish at both jetties.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For redfish, artificial shrimp rigged weedless and crank baits have been effective. Topwaters and floating Corkys or Texas Customs Double D's are also working well, especially in the early morning. For trout, WAC assassins in the Texas roach color rigged with a ⅛ ounce jig head, and small dark crabs like black, dark olive, and purple, have been producing continuous bites. Imitation shrimp lures under popping corks with 12-18 inch leaders are also recommended.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Galveston Bay**: The West shoreline and areas near the Kemah channel are producing fair numbers of speckled trout and redfish.
    - **Port Aransas**: The tip of the north and south jetties are hot spots for redfish and trout.
    - **Spoil Island along the channel**: This area is good for speckled trout, redfish, sheepshead, and black drum.

    ### Conservation Note
    Remember to limit your catch, especially larger trout, as new regulations require the release of trout over 20 inches to 27.999 inches. Large female trout should be gently released to help in the recovery from the 2021 freeze.

    With the right lures and bait, and by targeting the right spots, you should have a productive day on the water. Enjoy your fishing trip

    "Ideal Fall Fishing in the Texas Gulf: Redfish, Trout, and Drum Biting on Live Shrimp, Mullet, and Spoons"
    Oct 31 2024
    If you're heading out to fish in the Gulf of Mexico along the Texas coast today, you're in for a treat. The weather is ideal for fall fishing, with water temperatures in the mid to upper 80s, which is just perfect for this time of year.

    Sunrise today is around 7:30 AM, and you can expect the sun to set at about 6:45 PM, giving you a full day on the water. Tidal conditions are favorable, with gentle tides that should help you locate the fish more easily.

    Yesterday's fishing was excellent, especially around areas like Port Aransas and Rockport. Redfish were plentiful, with many anglers reporting good catches using shrimp, cut mullet, and silver spoons, particularly around the north and south jetties.

    Speckled trout were also active, biting well on live shrimp under a popping cork and on croaker or shrimp free-lined along rocks. Black drum were another highlight, with good catches on live or dead shrimp.

    For bait, live shrimp is your best bet across most species. Cut mullet and menhaden are also producing good results for redfish. If you're after speckled trout, consider using live shrimp under a popping cork or soft plastics. For black drum, live or dead shrimp are the way to go.

    Some hot spots to consider include the jetties at Port Aransas, where redfish and trout have been biting well. Rockport is another great area, with redfish taking shrimp, piggy perch, cut skipjack, and mullet. San Antonio Bay and East Matagorda Bay are also worth a visit, with redfish and speckled trout showing good activity on live shrimp and soft plastics.

    Overall, the Gulf of Mexico along the Texas coast is offering some fantastic fishing opportunities right now, so make sure you're well-prepared with the right gear and bait to make the most of your day on the water.
