We would like to welcome all of the Ladies to the "Babes on Baffin All Women's Fishing Tournament" this weekend. We are going to have lots of babes and lots of fun!

Don't forget to sign up for our up and coming tournaments.
Our Red fish tournament in November and Bluffs Landing's very first Chili Cook-off and Horse Shoe Pitching contest. We'll have lot's of great food, fun and prizes!

There has been a lot of movement in the waters off Baffin Bay. We have been seeing alot of Trout that are 30" around the rocks. Piggie Perch are still the choice bait.

Trout, Red fish and Flounder are showing up in and around the upper Laguna.

Red Fish are moving north for the Spawning period. Red fish spawn or lay eggs around the jetty areas where there are lots of rocks for there fingerling to be hidden and survive to grow up big and strong for us.



Great catches and congratulations to Michael, EJ & Austin Archuleta! They came down to the Marina and had a blast! EJ and Austin are the son's of Karin Brauner in our corporate office. They caught 19 Trout and 2 Flounder and went home with some great fishing stories.

Get your fish on!

We wanted to say thanks to "The Outdoor Texas Camp" for coming to see us at the Marina. This is a youth camp that focuses on saltwater activities. These boys went kayaking, tied fishing flies & went on a guided fishing trip among other things. During the week they stayed with us, they brought in lots of fish and monster reds!! They all seemed to have a great time and we really enjoyed having them out and hope to see them again next year! Check out our web site www.bluffslanding.com for more pictures of these boys and there great catches.



Every one has been telling us all about the Trout and over sized large Reds they have been catching around the Baffin area.

Alot of people are also fishing in the shallow grass lines and are using piggies.

Our next big event is the Babes on Baffin all women's fishing tournament.
It's October 4th and 5th. So get ready lady's!

I will leave you all today with a bit of art we found in Kris's corner. BBQ and fishin, life can't get much better than that!

Hope everyone has had a great week and is ready to have an even better weekend!

Looks like there is a chance of rain today but Saturday and Sunday are looking sunny and in the 90's "Great fishing weather!"



For anyone that will be in Austin or can make it to Austin this Tuesday August, 5th stop on by for our Bluffs Landing open house. We will be serving great food and drinks. This event will be held at 600 Congress on the 21st floor between 6-8pm. This is a great chance for us in the corporate office to get know to meet our fellow fishermen. We will be talking about events that we will be hosting and also our V.I.P. membership that we are so excited about.




The fish are still biting like crazy so good luck to all and have a great weekend!

Fishin at the Bluff in July 2008

Ok, I am going to start this week off with a bit of movie Trivia.

In the movie "Castaway" star Tom Hanks removes his own tooth with:
a) a pair of crab tongs
b) a pair of pliers
c) a pair of socks
d) a pair of ice skates

You can find the answer at the end of this report.

So.... Fishing has really picked up on The Laguna Madre. BIG catches of Trout and some real nice Redfish. The Red's are ranging in size from 20" to 44". Large Trout are being caught down around Baffin Bay.

Wade fishing seems to produce better numbers of Flounder than the boats this last week or so but the boats are still producing great numbers as well.

For bait right now Croaker are very slow for some reason and live shrimp are few and far between. Mostly on the weekends Piggy Perch seems to be in good numbers. Piggy Perch grunt just like Croaker. This makes them a great target for all species.

Remember we offer professional guides for hire. Inshore & offshore.

Offshore fishing is off to a great start! Snapper, Ling, Dolphine, Shark, Amber Jack and King Fish are being caught.

We are also selling Ribon fish, Bay-hoo and Squid.

Stay with us on your next visit to Corpus Christie for Lodging, Food and a great fishing adventure.

We offer a full line of information for you and at no cost!

Since everyone has probubly heard about Hurricane Dolly, I decided to get you a little forcast together to insure you a great fishing trip. Looks like she isn't going to bother us much and next week is nothing but sunshine!

Have a great week!

The answer to the trivia question this week is D "Well it was only one ice skate (along with a rock) to bang it out."

Join us again next week for more Trivia!

It was a wet one but a great one!

If anyone skipped out this past weekend you sure did miss alot. We had rain but "man-o-man" did we have some good hauls of fish! The 4th was a blast, our guides went out Saturday and Sunday and they didn't even have to go too far away from the Marina to catch the big ones.

Here is our very own Kathy Akin with a whopping 27 inch 7 pound Speckled Trout.

Her family was taken out by Captain Steve Jorden, her son inlaw also caught a Trout that was 27 1/2 inches and 8 pounds!!!!

Janis Lindeman was celebrating her July 4th Birthday with husband Harvie and good friends, Captain Randy Pryor and his wife Jackie. Her Birthday present to her self was catching this 27 inch trout!


Here is another set of handsome gentlemen with there fantastic catches from this weekend. Great Job!!


I'm sure everyone is singing, "Rain rain go away, come again some other day". Well looks like you are in luck. Friday - Monday looks to be clear Skies in the mid 90's with a chance of clouds on Sunday but I think we are clear of rain for now.

Remember to call in you orders for live Croacker, the fish are still eating them up like crazy! Please call (361)937-7101 or make any other reservations online at www.Bluffslanding.com.

Everyone have a great weekend and catch some fish...........

Fishing Report June 30, 2008

Fishing still remains good with good catches of trout using croaker.




This is 7 yr old Mathew Seymore the Third. Captain Rick Loveday took out Mathew, Grandpa and dad out on June 9th. Mathew also caught 2 over sized reds, 2 legal reds and several of their 30 trout. Good job Seymore family!!!

It has been a slow year so far for croaker because Mother Nature steps in sometime to slow the process of evolution.

Redfish are moving north towards the jetties to spawn.

Live shrimp are available and Piggy perch will be here soon. These are as good as using live croaker, mullet or any other baitfish.

Don't forget to make you'r reservations @ bluffslanding.com for July 4th! "This Friday!"

And remember to be safe and stay out of trouble you don't want to end up like Jimmy!

"Some times even us at the office have too let loose every once in awhile :)"



ALL OF US AT BLUFFS LANDING WISH YOU ALL A VERY


BE SAFE DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!

Fishing remains at an all time high on the coast! Trout are being caught EVERYWHERE!
Redfish are stacking up in the nine mile hole.

Croaker is the way to go when choosing your bait

Upper Laguna is producing Trout everywhere and also has scattered Red's.

Remember to call in your Crocker reservations and pick up time is no later than 7am.


Make your reservations now and come celebrate Independence day with us on Friday the 4th of July!

June Fishing!

Before I go on about how wonderful the fishing is at Bluffs landing. I first have to congratulate Sir. Stinkerton. Stinky graduated top in his class this week, so as a graduation present to him we are taking him fishing at Bluffs landing. "He loves chasing the pelicans and eating at Laguna Beach Restaurant" So why not gather up all the graduates you know and come celebrate with us!



Back to our fishing.........

Upper Laguna Madre has been the hot spot this week. Live Croaker are still the bait of choice and we have plenty of them!

If your fishing for Trout you need to be around the Pure oil Channel and Emmords Hole.

If it's Redfish you are looking for head for the Night Hawk area.

Don't forget to call ahead for your bait reservations, we have lots of Live Shrimp and Crocker available.

And remember we offer fishing guide and lodging packages.

We are having the seventh annual Marco Pena Memorial Fishing Tournament to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation this weekend June 20-21 at Bluffs Landing Marina.

Fishing Report 6/11/2008

Fishing has really picked up around the grass lines in Emmords hole and back into Nighthawk. Redfish have been spotted around Spoil Island in the Boat hole as well.

With the SE winds pushing 15-20mph nearly everyday, the bait fish are being pushed up on the West shoreline. With this going on it makes a great area to get out of the boat and wade for bigger fish.

This past weekend we enjoyed hosting the McCoy's group, who took out 25 boats and brought back nearly 800 lbs. of Trout, Redfish and Flounder! It was a great weekend of fishing!



Main Street Home's annual fishing trip. Proud angler with the largest Redfish.




27.7” Red Caught from Bluff’s Landing

Fishing Report 6/03/08

Check out Kris's new favorite fishing technique......


Another great weekend of fishing at Bluffs Landing! The Redfish and Trout are still coming in from the Land-cut, Yarbourgh Pass and the Baffin Bay area and let me tell you they are biting like crazy!

Croaker is the bait of choice right now. Night Hawk, Emmond's Hole and the Pure oil Channel are producing LIMITS of Trout along with Redfish. "Yummy!!!!"

As the winds lay look for Redfish around Spail Island.

We have plenty of LIVE CROCKER on hand but if you want to make sure we have enough for you and your friends give us a call and make Bait reservations also call us for any booking of fishing guides, Lodging or Company tournaments. (361)739-2764 or bluffslanding.com
