Fishing has been slow over the last couple of weeks because of the sporadic conditions; the weather has been all over the place. I have caught good numbers of trout on a few outings with the rare fish over 3 or 4 lbs, but for the most part the average size has left much to be desired.
Raymond and I fished two different spots yesterday and were on the water before sunup and didn’t get off the water until well after dark. Yesterday’s outing was a grind in every sense of the word. We fished for over 12 hours during near freezing temperatures the entire day. And to add to the drudgery we didn’t get a single bite all day until after dusk.
We landed at least a dozen reds to 27″ in an area where we traditionally catch mostly trout. During the redfish frenzy I also managed to catch the lone trout of the day, a solid 4lb fish. The lures we have had the most success on are Gambler Flapp’N Shad, TTF Flats Minnow and TTF Hackberry Hustler’s in morning glory, liquid shrimp, mumpy glo, and matagorda magic.
