We are back to the surf today and have caught some very nice trout. the bait of choice is always croakers in the surf this time of year. If the current is strong like today add some weight to get your bait down.

We fished the last few days in Corpus Christi Bay near the oil & gas production platforms. We used croakers to select for the larger trout. We also fish some soft plastic baits and picked up some nice trout as well. these wells can produce throughout the year.

We were back to Copano Bay for speckled trout. The fish were plentiful and we kept enough for dinner. Our fishermen and women had a great day. The sun is getting hot and the bay is warming. The trout were on deep reefs in 5 to 6 feet of water. Croakers fished on these reefs produced.

We fished the surf of San Jose Island today. Speckled trout on croakers was our target. The trout were aggressive and limits came early. Later we tolled for kingfish and caught several. All were released.

We fished Baffin Bay for 3 days with artificial lures. We used top waters in the early mornings then switched to soft plastics. The speckled trout fishing was great early on top waters. Lots of nice fish up to 25″. We moved deeper as the sun rose and caught trout in guts on Bass Assassins and Norton Mini Sand Eels. Most colors produced but bone diamond was the best.

Fishing was great today near Rockport. We fished Copano Bay and used croakers. Although we did not catch any large speckled trout the fish we did catch were agressive and plentiful. The deep water reefs in Copano Bay can produce some very good boxes of fish.

We had a great three days of fishing. the speckled trout were very aggressive. They attacked the croakers and were all good sized fish with several over 4 lbs. Both father and son caught several really big fish. They had plenty of fish to take home for future fish dinners. We fished Aransas and Copano Bays and had a great time.

We fished the Meadows today in Baffin Bay. Croakers were the hot bait not piggy perch and the speckled trout were very aggressive. Almost pulling the rod from our hands. Althought most were around 18 inches (nice trout), there were several over 22 inches
