Today we had a slight breeze out of the north east blowing 5-10mph, with this brings lots of calm clear water, allowing the fish to disperse scatter across the flats in search of food. We began working a shallow flat with small grass beds and sand pockets looking for redfish throwing 1/8oz weedless Down South lure Jigs. The preferred color of choice was victorious secret and magic grass, producing one slot redfish and numerous undersized reds. We then moved on to a bigger open flat with endless grass beds working Paul Brown Custom Fat boy corkies, the preferred color of choice was baby trout and brown tide, producing seven keeper speckled trout and countless others. As we fished up our final wade we walked a narrow shoreline with clay mud in search of flounder, only to find that it was LOADED with speckled trout and undersized redfish! We finished catching our limits of trout on 3/16oz Down South lure jigs with the color of choice being Candy Apple Red. All in all it wasn't the fastest way to get limits of fish but we did manage to pinpoint out some of the areas the fish were holding up in with the cold water temperatures.

Started out our morning a little later than usual, recently i was out of town working the Houston boat show for Down South Lures. I was exhausted from the drive and making home around 1:30am, but i had promised my best friends that we would go out and do some scouting in the morning so i dragged my butt out of bed around 5:30am! We didn't exactly get the rush start we wanted but we finally hit the water and first cast was around 8:30am. Winds were blowing 15-23mph out of the northeast and we started working some areas that in previous years had paid off in the past. Sure enough we started to find the redfish and began a slower pace approach with 1/8oz weedless jig heads throwing Down South Lures victorious secret and purple reign! The depth was about knee to thigh deep with a sandy grassy flat. The reds seemed to be more concentrated on the sandy areas and were favoring a slow hop rather than a fast paced jig. We then moved to a more deeper level of water with a soft silty bottom and began to use Custom Corky FatBoys in the double bubble color along with the gringo, waste deep water and a very slow retrieve helped to snag a few keeper trout and a few Oversized Trout as a bonus! We were back at the dock done with limits by 2:05pm!
