First Cold front of the year.
First Cold front of the year.
Oct 18, 2024 Corpus Christi
10/16/24 we received our 1st cold front of the year. It brought high winds and temps dropped around 15 degrees. The high winds pushed alot of water into the area causing concentrated fish to scatter across the flats. Although the fish have been feeding, they are a little tougher to **hidden content** guides have been cutting in lots of extra work to locate these fish and get customers a decent box to bring home. Lately popping corks and live shrimp have been the way to go.

With water levels down and low winds, the fish were spread out. Each spot we visited we mangaed to pick up a few keepers so it didn't take long to realize not to stay in a spot too long. Managed to grind out a decent box of fish in 4 feet of water adjacent to deeper drop offs.

Reds and Trout 5/5/23
May 5, 2023 Corpus Christi
Morning started off opposite of forecast. Winds blowing heavy with storms in the area. Winds started laying down mid morning and became calm before noon. Water was chocolate colored. Search and found some clean water after a few hours of searching and found fish. Had a great group of 4 that ended up catching a lot of Reds and Trout and even saw some wildlife. Ended up being a successful day.
