Re: West Galveston Bay, what now

I’ve been out on and around the water just about every day since the freeze and haven’t seen a single dead fish. I’ve been up and down the majority of the South Shoreline, concentrating my efforts from Sea Aisle all the way east to Offatts Bayou. I haven’t been out towards Christmas bay or the Pass...

Re: Lure size question?

Best advice is in answer given by Sfinatic. However, many times that's easier said than done. I pretty much fly fish these days, so "Match the Hatch" is my byword. But, the size of a fly is small and yet I catch some pretty big fish (every once in a while). The point being, that while siz...

Re: Lure size question?

I don't fish that area but it won't be any different than middle or lower Texas coast. Your answer is whatever size bait the fish are feeding on. Lately for reds I've been using something smaller that more resembles shad since that is what they are feeding on. If you're ever in doubt in most months...

Re: Newbie baitcaster question

Get the basics down on how to cast correctly and with accuracy . Try short distances first then as you can hit the same spot regularly, that includes throwing into the wind, increase your distance. While doing this learn what you need to adjust for the wind direction and conditions. If you will be ...
