Way to go Truett! 2nd place-fly division-2-14 TIFT!

Summertime, summertime!!!

Look closely in the second photo to find the redfish in the absolutely clear water! Enjoy!!!

The Birds are Working!

Well, it's Spring! The season has come a little later this year, but it's beginning, at least in the mind of this guide, is marked by the migration of juvenile shrimp out of the westside bays, which triggers the frenzied podding of the redfish, which triggers the frenzied feeding of the laughing gulls. the clients struggled with the conditions on the day of these photos were taken, and we caught a number of species besides redfish. including a laughing gull! But, as you can see, there were redfish to be hooked on the fly as well...Capt. Randy

The Sand is Red Hot!

Well, it's springtime, and all the craziness of fishing for pods of redfish under laughing gulls has been hot and heavy in the last two weeks. But, today I take a brief moment to let you all know that the eastside sand has also been red hot! With the sun high the redfish can be seen roaming around on the white sand as though we are poling the skiff along in a 10 inch deep aquarium! Congratulations Nelson on a fine cast! Capt. Randy

Spring Break on the Lower Laguna Madre!

We left the dock when it was still almost too dark to motor safely. We carefully navigated the ICW, avoided the large dredging barge that has made a home at the mouth of the Arroyo, and headed north to  an obscure shoreline that is treacherous to reach due to the low winter tides that are hanging around quite late this year. Our efforts paid off! We saw 6 or 7 large redfish feeding slowly into the wind with at least an inch of their backs totally exposed/sticking up out of the water! We hooked and landed 3 of them  on a fly and headed in early, satisfied that we had accomplished our goal!

We are now receiving bookings for the spring and summer. Give us a call if you want to come down and fish in the next few months. Capt. Randy

Fall Fishing with Returning Clients!

These fine gentlemen have been down here many times and come in the fall precisely because of the uniqueness of this time of year for the seasoned salt water fly fishermen. These and many other photos tell the story of multiple double digit days on the fly. Many fish were caught during a stretch of stellar days on the

Lower Laguna Madre!

Fall fishing is ago!

The last four weeks have contained a great number of fine weather fishing days. Low winds and tailing red, while always a possibility, commonly occur throughout the fall months. Considering the fact that the daytime temps are so pleasant, I am always quick to encourage clients to get down here this time of year for a great opportunity to catch your first redfish on a fly rod.

The first photo below is a happy client on his first saltwater fly fishing trip on the Lower Laguna Madre. As you can see, he accomplished his goal! I have been so busy, I am just now getting the opportunity to publish this report.
