Conditions: Water temps in the 60s, no red tide detected, Average tides with morning ebbs. NW winds midweek will drain a bit more water from the backcountry than the tide predictions indicate.
Bait: threadfin herring, pinfish, shrimp
Fishing Tactics: Morning ebb tide will expose oyster beds. You’ll find Redfish, seatrout and other species there. As the tide rises move to points and cuts where the current is moving for snook and more Redfish action.
My Fishing Tip of the Week: Start presenting your flies well before reaching the exposed portion of oyster bars. Redfish will be cruising the transition between the bed and the flat. Sinking crab and shrimp patterns with slow strips work best.
7 day outlook: Highs will be in the 70s with lows in the 40s and 50s. Strong NW winds on Tuesday otherwise light. Water temps remain in the 60s 20-30% chance of showers Monday and Tuesday.
