Fishing Report May 20, 2008

The north wind held fishing to a challenge this weekend. Fish were still caught in the Land-Cut and Baffin Bay. Fishing remains slow in the upper lagoon. Trout and Reds were showing up in the Boat Hole close to the Bayfront. Croaker is off to a slow start and we are catching small baits, but the summer always starts off this way. June will produce 3 to 4 inch croaker, which are the perfect size for fishing! So come on down to the Bluffs Landing Marina and see what you can catch!

Bluff’s Landing Marina was host to the American Energy Fishing Tournament this past weekend. This was a pretty big tournament with 62 boats entered to fish this event. They held the Calcutta on Friday night and fished on Saturday. For those who don’t know a Calcutta is where you have to catch a redfish, trout, and flounder. If you don’t catch all three of these fish you are out the money. There were also prizes for individual in the redfish, trout, and flounder divisions. The Calcutta paid out $19,000 for 1st place, $11,000 for 2nd, and $9,000 to 3rd place.

Summer is here!

Our Gulf Coast weekend was interrupted by some cooler temperatures and much needed rain. The rain is important to our Laguna Madre, it keeps the saltwater levels in check. High salinity levels are not good for the eco systems. Despite the wind and rain, good catches of Redfish, Trout, Black Drum, Sheephead and Flounder were brought in from the Landcut. Baffin Bay is still holding a good pattern for large trophy trout. If you don’t want to travel that far, you can fish Emmords Hole and north to Nighthawk for Redfish. You can find Redfish and Trout under the high-lines. The Packery Channel is holding trout from the Gulf trying to come in the bay system to spawn. Don’t forget, croaker bait will be available starting May 1, 2008.

Please call ahead to reserve your bait. Call the Marina at #361-937-7100

Well, we had another great week of fishing down here at Bluff’s Landing Marina. Fishing in the Land Cut has improved as trout are coming in from the Gulf of Mexico to lay their eggs. These fish will weigh a pound or so more than they usually would. We’ve seen a lot of redfish coming out of the Nine Mile Hole because the water is falling out. Baffin Bay is still producing plenty of redfish and trout while the King Ranch shoreline has been holding nice sized redfish.

On the 18th of May we will be hosting a fundraiser for Cheryl Corson. Cheryl is the daughter of Lacy Smith, a longtime friend and resident of Flour Bluff. Cheryl has undergone two kidney transplants. All proceeds donated will go to Cheryl and her family for mounting medical bills.
We will have ten BBQ teams competing along with a fish fry and Cajun craw fish boil! It doesn’t get any better than that! There will be a little something for everyone so come on out to Bluffs Landing Marina and enjoy good food, cold drinks, and lots of good friends!

Fishing has gradually improved due to the decrease in wind. The wind speed has dropped from around 25 mph to around 10 to 15 mph. We’ve seen a lot of tide runner trout and redfish coming out of the Land-Cut. Tide runner trout are trout coming inland from the Gulf of Mexico to spawn. You can spot them by the bright yellow color in their mouths. Baffin Bay is still producing very nice trout, redfish, and black drum for the wade fishermen. Upper Lagoon, Pure Oil, Emmords Hole, and the Boat Hole are also full of fish! Live shrimp has been the bait of choice so far this season. Crocker season begins May 1, 2008. Make sure to call ahead to reserve your bait, lodge, or guide for the 2008 season!

What a beautiful weekend we had at Bluff’s Landing Marina and Lodge! Our weekend began Friday with the Texas Redfish Series arriving at the marina for their fourth redfish event in the Corpus Christi area. One hundred and twenty-five teams of redfish anglers competed for a $12,000.00 first place prize. Teams could weigh in two live redfish between 20 and 28 inches. The weigh-in began at 2:00 p.m. and the anglers had to be in sight of the marina by 4:00 p.m. sharp! One hundred and twenty-five redfish were weighed and put in holding tanks. They were later returned to the original waters they came from. The first day, the weigh-in was at Bluff's Landing and day two was held at the new “H.E.B. Plus” located in Flour Bluff. Out of the 125 teams that entered, only 50 teams were allowed to fish during day two. I took a lot of pictures of the event, so check out our web site at www.bluffslanding.com, to view them.

Aside from the redfish tournament we had a ton of anglers competing for “diner table catches.” I can’t tell you how many full boxes of trout and redfish were brought in. After witnessing the fish caught over the weekend there is no doubt that Baffin Bay is still holding plenty of nice trout and reds. On a side note the wade fishermen seem to be bringing in the best fish. Now if you’re looking for the perfect spot to bring in some keepers try Rocky Slough and Pensecol Point. These two areas are producing trout, reds, and a few flounder. King fish were also being caught in the surf about three miles out. The Boat Hole was holding a lot of keeper trout and oversized redfish. Other local action has also included redfish and trout on live shrimp as well as artificial bait. Speaking of bait, live croaker will be here May 1, 2008, so mark your calendars!
The summer is upon us here at Bluff’s Landing and we are having a great one so far! There were over 700 people here on Saturday and 500 plus people here on Sunday. What a great start for the summer! From all of us here at Bluff’s Landing Marina thank you, and don’t forget to visit our web site at http://www.bluffslanding.com/, for everything Bluff's Landing Marina and Lodge has to offer. Please call ahead for your bait and lodging.

Thank you!
