The most recent cold front is a reminder that we’re nearing the end of the redfish explosion in the marshes on the Texas Coast. Over the last few weeks most of the shrimp has migrated to the Gulf leaving fin-fish as the only remaining forage available for a ravenous redfish. […]
Redfish
I often get asked, which color(s) should I use? Color selection is not a concrete science as with most fishing-related questions. As fishermen we’re philosophers, mind-readers, and theorists. We develop ideas based on past experience from what has and has not worked. This video is my take on color selection […]
The arrival of fall begets many changes for anglers on the Texas coast. Artic blasts bring relief from the scorching summer heat, but more importantly, the objects of our fascination begin to fatten up for winter when food sources will be scarce and water temps are too low to warrant […]
Fishing has been flat-out ridiculous on the Upper Texas Coast. Huge schools of redfish everywhere you look. The water has cleaned up nicely with the passing of the last few cold fronts too making the fish a lot easier to spot and catch. It’s been a sight fisherman’s dream in […]
Here’s a short clip I put together of some sight casting action from last week…. The fishing has been phenomenal. In two days last week I witnessed 100+ redfish landed between me and the group of guys I was fishing with. Report, photos, and more footage coming soon.
What makes fishing great is it’s something different to every person that fishes. What floats one angler’s boat may not fancy another’s fixation. My favorite way to catch fish is by sight fishing, preferably with the buggy whip in hand. I find myself constantly looking for new places where I […]
I love this time of year: nice weather and redfish school up consistently in the marsh. Here’s a couple of teasers from this past weekends action…
The fruits of labor? Maybe it should be the fruits of a damn good time yesterday. Had an epic day sight casting yesterday. Lost count of how many redfish were landed but upwards of twenty fish myself alone. Video(lots of it), photos, and report coming soon. Doesn’t get much fresher […]
I spent a few days last week camping alongside an eclectic group of guys. Despite our varying backgrounds and personalities we shared a common interest. We’re all fishermen. But beyond our affinity for angling our jones is swinging a graphite stick to present hooks dressed with fur and feathers at […]
Spent a few days camping at Padre Island National Seashore last week. The area has been hit pretty hard by the red tide. Most of fish effected are non-gamefish and baitfish but there was also plenty of redfish (big and small), trout, mackerel, snook, etc. that were effected. It is […]
