As the dog days of summer are over, THE SUMMER Masses and vacations that bring more fish force than normal are gone. Before the snow birds arrive and the kids have returned to school, we exhale heavily in relief from the sweltering summer heat and eagerly await the first great front of the year. We are aware that this is what starts the fish trends in the fall.
As soon as the first cold front of the season arrives, it brings reduction because the fish also start to notice changes in the environment. As the temperatures drop, novel serving patterns are triggered. Your upper gambling Reds will usually be on the flats foraging in pairs or in smaller schools of bass during the summer. They congregate in smaller spaces as the ocean temperature drops, just like the hook fish, which is always the game’s name.
Our approach at this time of year is to adapt to the Redfish’s habits and activities. Wading the deep flats while we quietly wait for signs of school or tailing Redfish is one of our most popular methods. Drifting the condos is another one of our go-to techniques because we are looking for signs of wakes and frightened water. If the water quality is good, you can occasionally see them and sight cast directly in front of them. It’s one of the most heart-pounding, adrenaline-inducing experiences because all you have to do is watch the fish consume the decoy you’ve just cast. A Laguna Custom Rod and a Down South Lure” Bone Diamond” duo are what we use to set up for this kind of fishing. Some of the best swimming lures available for this kind of fish are made by our colleague Mike Bosse of Down South Lures.
Numerous locations along Mustang Island offer these kinds of flats as well as the chance to target Redfish using these trends.
We’re going to briefly pumps the breaks and discuss the elephant in the room. Did you know that Texas has a Bulls running of its own? The Bull Reds’ drop movement to the Gulf for their yearly spawning rituals starts at this time of year. Wow, how does one get the chance to take part in such a jam-packed entertaining experience? You have the chance to find these savages as they cruise through the Packery Channel and Port Aransas jetties, following the migrating fish along the beaches while running up and down the search. When landing one of these incredible older Reds, one must be ready. This is usually a capture and transfer situation. best methods, as these men are the primary manufacturers and patriarchs of their species and make sure they make it to the spawning grounds where they are intended to go.
As per usual, we want to remind you to constantly check your tide tables and adhere to your major and minor serve times because we think doing so will improve your chances of catching fish and landing the particular best. The fish this fall is going to be fantastic, so we would love to have you visit us.
We’ll set you up!
