This past week, the Galveston Bay complex had several inches of rain due to a cold front. Upwards of 5-6 inches reached the run offs of all the bayous and rivers around Trinity, East and West Bay. This caused a major migration of all the shrimp in the back bay and marches to fall towards the middle of each bay complex.
Thus, we now now have large flocks of seagulls feeding over large schools of speckled trout and REDFISH………………………………….
Water temp is hovering around 65 degrees and the visibility is awesome to about 1-2 feet.
Locations in Trinity are near Dows and Beasley reef, along with the east shoreline near Double bayou. In East bay, birds are working near Robinson bayou and Marsch Point. Campbells bayou and near Greens and Alligator point in West bay, are holding good numbers of diving birds……………
Make use of gold spoons in the 1/4 to 1/2 oz. Long casts prove important for good numbers of big girls near 4-5 lbs. Soft plastic grubs like Devils Eyes from Brown Lures or Salt Water Assassins work as well with 3/8 or 1/2 oz lead…………….
Redfish are in good numbers as well in the slot. Finding Gulf trout to 2-3 lbs as well. Real bonus as these fish normally just outside the jettys near offshore rigs……………..
This bird activity will continue to work till winter patterns arrive later this year…………………….
Deer season opens November 7th in both north and south zones. This will allow those anglers near perfect conditions, to make a memory of a lifetime……….
Stop by Fishing Tackle Unlimited in Houston, Texas and look at their rod selections of the famous GREEN ROD………….both in 6′2″,6″6″ and 7′. Great action in fast and medium tips.
Take time to enjoys our Lords great outdoors…………….God bless your families
