Trout action
continues to top the fishing news and Wednesday provided a continuation
of the hot action anglers have been having on trout all week.
Preston Blaylock and Horace Moore found East Bay to be the spot for limiting out on specks early Wednesday. Live shrimp and piggy perch were the baits while fishing one of the deep reefs.

Frank Martin
limited out on trout while wade fishing the surf Wednesday. The big
catch came using live shrimp fished under popping corks and took place
near Caplan.
While lots are trout are being caught this week, Steve Creecy
did not fare so well. Creecy sent a note saying that he personally
observed lots of trout at the cleaning tables; however, he got skunked
while fishing one of his favorite spots off of Dollar Point on Tuesday
where he has caught many specks and other fish over the years.
I am not familiar with the
current conditions around that area; however, it sounds like he may have
been fishing too far up Galveston Bay. The salinity levels likely are
low to near zero around there and the fish most likely are going to be
found farther south.
All of the reports this week,
like those today, have been from areas close to the passes or from the
surf. Earlier this week, one of our local fishing guides pointed out
that anglers are going to have to fish where the trout are today, not
where they were.
Just past 2 p.m. Wednesday, NOAA
Fisheries sent out an announcement that the red snapper season for
private anglers is being extended two days until 12:01 a.m. Sunday due
to Tropical Storm Colin.
