Springbreak fun

Monthly Report for August

Aug 25, 2018 Houston

So this month has been a record year for us. We have been limiting out on red fish for ever client for the past 8 weeks. Its starting to slow down but there as great slot reds moving in with stomachs craving for shrimp. The drum are moving to the fall feeding areas and so are the specks. Next month should be amazing for trout with the rains pushing the white shrimp out of the grass lines and waters cooling off. We looking forward to a great fall run and hope we will have a great winter fishing session as well.

Great experience, almost limited out due to his scouting and overall knowledge of the area, no other crew caught anything but captain David kept getting us on all the fish consistently and helped us learn how to fish in the unfamiliar waters. Working with him was an easy transition like we had been fishing together all our lives and he was very prepared for the entire experience.
