Here’s a short video I put together of spooked reds. This footage was all taken on the same day and most was from a single paddle.
Fly Rod
Here is a compilation video of footage I took over the last few weeks. All of the footage has one central theme skinny water fly fishing for redfish in the marshes around the upper Texas coast. And when I say skinny I generally mean water less than 1′ deep. Most […]
Here’s a few random photos from some recent outings. Also, I had another great day on the water this morning with the fly rod. My two biggest fish went just under 28″ and weighed over 8lbs. The first two fish I’ve fought that took me into my backing. I didn’t […]
What a difference a few inches of water makes. I have been on the water a few times recently with various levels of success. One area I fished the tide had fallen enough to make fishing downright tough; I had a difficult time maneuvering through the marsh because of the […]
Greg and I started the morning bright and early at a spot we hadn’t had the chance to check out this year. We were interested to see if we could pick up trout shallow along with some redfish. We started off throwing topwaters in 1′-3′ of water on main bay […]
After keeping a close eye on the winds and water levels all day I had enough with being stuck indoors so I decided to head out for a quick evening trip close to home. I decided to pack light and only tote along my fly rod, fly box, and a […]
Fishing has been outstanding. I’ve been all over the map here on the Upper Texas Coast, from east to west, and have found redfish schooled up shallow at every location. It has been very easy to find them. Just look for birds hovering, bait fleeing, or listen for the distinct […]
Greg, John, and I hit the marsh last week and found several big schools of redfish early before the water level got too low. Bite lasted only a couple of hours because it was already mud slogging low and ripping out quickly. We had just enough water to float when […]
Here’s some pictures from Doug and I’s day on the water yesterday. We launched out of Galveston in Doug’s Maverick to ice cream conditions and fished several nearshore rigs. The water looked beautiful. We were in search of tackle and rigging testers and we found a few. No sightings of the Silver King but we did […]
Doug and I fished West Galveston Bay this morning. I caught a couple of reds on the gold spoon fly before the wind picked up and made fly fishing tough. We also caught several reds and a few trout drifting throwing TTF Flats Minnows in morning glory, mumpy glo, and […]
