EAST MATAGORDA: Water extended from East Bay to West Bay with the storm surge. Little damage was done.
MATAGORDA: Most of the damage occurred on the lower end of the Colorado River. Low-lying areas caught large trees and debris as water flowed from bay to bay. Old Parker’s Cut opened and flowed freely for a few days.
PORT O’CONNOR: Fishing has been slow. Tides are receding. Best bite has been on the leeward side of Espiritu Santo Bay on topwaters.
ROCKPORT: Redfish have been taken in the back lakes on natural baits and topwaters. Trout have been found against the grass with the high tides.
PORT ARANSAS: A rough surf has been good for bull redfish. Best baits have been chunks of crab and finger mullet.
CORPUS CHRISTI: Trout are fair to good from the piers at night on live bait. High tides pushed many fish to the back reaches of the bay.
BAFFIN BAY: Good catches of trout have been taken under lights at night in the Land Cut on live shrimp and glow plastics. Redfish are good at Yarborough on golf spoons and soft plastics under corks.
PORT MANSFIELD: Redfish are good in the surf around East Cut on mullet and other natural baits. Fish have been scattered in the bay with higher tides, but redfish are beginning to school on the flats.
SOUTH PADRE: Trout and redfish are fair to good for waders working the grass beds on small topwaters. Rising tides have pushed many redfish in the grass.
PORT ISABEL: Trout and redfish are fair to good while drifting sand and grass on soft plastics under popping corks. Tides are higher due to the storm and the Equinox tides. Redfish are schooling on the flats.
