We have been catching trout in Baffin Bay and some reds .Had a trip there last Friday and lost a lot of fish but we did land 12 keeper trout and 1 nice red. The fishing was tough for other anglers as well.

Fished the Babes on the Bay tournament last Saturday .Sherrel my wife and Kacie my daughter brought in a full stringer of 3 20" trout and a 26" redfish .Still did not even place that was about 900 people entered.We kicked about 800 butts but that was not enough!
We have been catching easy limits of trout in clearer water near Super Flats.Most caught on shrimp but the bigger ones on croaker. The reds are biting cut menhaden and cut mullet.
The Kingfish are here Brad caught 3 today in the jetties.The wind is starting to lay down and I am running offshore asap.

Windy ,tough fishing

Last two weeks have been quite a challenge ,windy 50 mph ,muddy water ,and high tides.The best fishing lately has been right up in the mangrove bushes and grassy shorelines .The reds have been hitting cut perch mostly,some on live shrimp and some on Berkly Gulp.Trout are few because of bad water clarity.Ransom Island ,dagger island ,East flats ,Shamrock cove,and Ingleside cove have been the clearest .

SPRING FLING media event

We had a really great time at the Rockport Spring Fling media event .Lots of great vendor's showing off their products.From Lankat bait bucket ,Midcoast products to Berkley Pure fishing.We also had a lot of great outdoor writers like David Sikes join us.

Windy Fishing



The wind has been 20-30 mph. from the southeast. The reds are on the Inter coastal waterway from Rockport to Ingleside .Fish the cuts leading from the bay.The fish will bite really good until about 9:00 am. Spinner baits are working great,with a purple ,chartreuse tail .Gold blade and chartreuse head.Work both sides of the shoal and the west bank too.
Large weedless spoons 1/2,or 3/4 oz are required for the wind.If the water is muddy then throw large White gulps.
