Fishing Report 5/12/2009











Tide runner trout have been coming in from the Gulf of Mexico. These fish return to the Laguna Madre to lay thousands of eggs in the warm undisturbed waters, they are fat and full of eggs. You can find tide runner trout moving in the Land-Cut or Baffin Bay area. Fishing has improved in the Upper Laguna for both redfish and trout. The Packery Channel is also producing tide runners. Live shrimp should be plentiful thru May. We will be getting croaker and piggy perch soon to offset the shrimp.
