Capt. Chad's Fishing Report

Here is a fishing report from our friend Capt. Chad Peterek.

After the first 2 weeks of the 2010 Baffin Season, Dr. Mark Stevens of Victoria is a top my leader board with his personal best 29" trout he caught with me on a Keylime Pie Gambler bait...the fishing in Baffin has remained slower than normal, but we are getting a few big bites...so far we have landed 3 trout over 28 inches and I am looking for the next one to come along soon...but the past 2 weeks have been about grinding all day in some very cold and windy conditions.
Tournament News: My partner Rocky Whitley and I fished the Annual Baffin Bash Trout Tournament 2 weeks ago and ended up taking 6th place after 2 very tough days of fishing. Next tournament is the Bluff Landing Trout Rodeo at the end of this month.
Hottest Baits: Gambler Lures in the colors of Keylime Pie, Plum/White and Copperfield.

I still have a few dates left open for a trophy trout trip to Baffin Bay and the Upper Laguna Madre...grab your rods and lets go!!!

South Texas Shoot-Out and Fishing Report 6/4/09

The first annual South Texas Shoot out is right around the corner! Click here for rules and registration.

Laguna Madre/Baffin Bay — Trout are scattered or in low concentrations from Pure Oil Channel southward. Most fish are being caught with croaker from Baffin Bay to the Landcut. Water clarity is good in Baffin, Rocky Slough, the Meadows and Yarborough. Plum Bass Assassins worked near the mouth of Baffin, along with croaker and live shrimp. In the back bay, anglers continue to catch trout on paddletail soft plastics and purple Devil Eyes this week in the back of Baffin Bay, around protected shorelines with rocks. The south end of the Landcut remains hot for trout and reds on croaker, with a few flounder. Drum are there too. Nine Mile Hole and Yarborough also has some reds.. The King Ranch shoreline continues to produce scattered trout.

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.
We’ve been receiving a lot of registration entry forms for the South Texas Redfish Shoot-out. The tournament is June 12th -14th. First place payout is $15,000, second is $10,000 and third is $5,000!

Fishing Info:

So far this year, the fishing in Baffin Bay has been fair to tough. We've not been catching a lot of fish. But the big fish is what has kept us going strong! There have been many days where you work all day long for 15-20 fish, but we've had several 7-10 pounders. The whole purpose of fishing here in Baffin is for the chance to catch a fish of a lifetime, therefore we have had success on many trips, but the numbers of fish caught has been lower than ever. Speaking with many locals, other guides and a biologist, we can only come up with the fact that this dry spell has hurt the fishing in Baffin Bay this year. The best lures lately have been Gambler Baits all the way...hottest colors have been KeyLime Pie, White, Plum/White tail and Texas Tea. We've tried top waters on many occasions and have not had much success yet, but it should turn on very soon.
