    Texas Fishing Report April 20 – Trophy Trout

    A 6.75# trout at 27″ makes the grind all worth it.  We caught some solid trout today on the first few wades with a number of smalls mixed in. Then the bite slowed to a red or a couple of trout each wade.

    Well, as we left the dock there wasn’t much in the way of weather, but as soon as we got all set up in the marsh with the tower rain storms started popping up. However, we were in some gin clear water and was able to see good enough, but none of the reds wanted…

    Wading for Redfish with Capt Nathan Beabout

    While we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to go this weekend. We got lucky and the storms passed just inland, leaving the bays a touch breezy, but with no rain. Even with the high winds we were able to find plenty of protected water to fish, concentrating on sand/grass, mud/shell for…

    Fishing Report

    First time in a long time I remember wet wading in March. The Spring pattern is definitely here. Fish were holding over knee deep sand pockets, finding the bait was key. Topwaters, softdines, and DSL dirty tequila got the job done. On top of a great day wading, these boys enjoyed an evening last night…

    Sight Casting to Redfish Seadrift, Texas

    There is a reason redfish tournaments across the Gulf Coast start in March.  It is because redfish come in out of the gulf and fill the shallows of our marsh and grass flats.  These fish will make these areas home for the most of the summer, cruising the grass and shorelines in search of there…

    Mission accomplished in Port Mansfield! Had several solid trout and reds today. Then the big girl crushed a topwater. Fish were released.

  • Low Tide Redfish

    We have seen some ups and downs on the Middle Texas Coast lately.  Naturally our lakes are holding trout and reds on a consistent basis.  If you try to avoid the crowds in the more popular lakes, it has been anything but consistent.  If the water is up, the trout bite is on in almost…

    The Devils River is one of those legendary wild spots that surfaces in rumor around the campfire.  It is a harsh unforgiving environment in a true wilderness setting.  A group of us have tried planning a canoe fishing trip to the Devils River for years but the logistics are a challenge.  These new paddler camp…

  • Port Mansfield Trophy Trout

    Last week’s Port Mansfield trips were action packed. We fished a couple days in warm weather, then got hit by a front and temps dropped a little, which triggered a big fish bite. Mansfield trips are trophy trout trips, with the intention of upping your personal best. One client was able to achieve that, as…

    Chasing Redfish with Capt. Nathan Beabout

    It was a bit of a grind yesterday until the cool front arrived. Slick calm conditions meant our only shot at a bite was redfish.  A handful showed up, crushing topwaters and Down South Lures dirty tequila.  About an hour after the front, we found a small trout bite, and managed to loose a couple…

    Capt. Nathan Beabout Fishing Report

    Starting on Saturday, we found fish in an old favorite spot with zero boat traffic.  With a stiff east wind, we walked along a big dirty streak of water that was teaming with bait. We landed several small trout at first, but about halfway down the dirty water keepers started to take the baits.  No…
