The last couple of days on Sabine Lake have been the best we've had in months. He redfish were big, bad and pletiful. More trout were put on the boat in the last two days than the last to months . Most of the fish were caught on chicken on a chain plastics, drifted over shell in about 4' of water....and not another boat in sight. See you on the water!
