Dan's Flog (Fishing Log)
8-08 August Report PDF Print E-mail

August conditions have changed quited a bit.  The surf hasn't been the same since Dolly.  The trout are gone, but we did manage to hook up a tarpon out there in the middle of the month.  Fisihng around Estes Flats slowed down for trout, but the redfish have been steadily picking up.  We had several days with easy limits of solid redfish.  For the trout, San Antonio Bay was hot for a few weeks, but then it just shut down.  We have made some long trips to the Laguna Madre with excellent results.  Steady limits of trout are being caught down south.  The conditions have played an important role in where we are fishing.  Even if we have to run all the way south, we are doing what is necessary to find the fish.  Hurricane Gustav is heading into the gulf and I'm sure this will impact our fishing.

July has been a productive month for trout with a few tough days mixed in.  Hurricane Dolly came through at the end of the month and she sure changed our water clarity.  Cedar Bayou had been VERY steady for limits of trout until she came in.  Early in the month, the winds laid down and the fishing in Copano and Corpus Christi  Bay was good.  The northern bay complex has also been producing good catches of trout.  We had our annual CHEMO KIDS fishing tournament this month and it was a great success.  The kids had a great time and so did I!  Redfish have been scattered this month, but they are sure to be easier to find in the coming months.

We have had a few windy days early in the month, but overall fishing was great.  The trout bite was solid on Mud Island for a while and then we moved into CC bay.  Limits were pretty steady and the wind was calm.  It made for some hot days, but the fishing made up for it.  We made it to Cedar Bayou a few times and it was ON!!!  Overall the fishing was great this month with lots of fat trout hitting the dock.

I had a short trip with the Ingram family today.  Mr. Ingram quickly informed me that he didn't like to fish past 10:00 and he didn't want to be in chopy water.  This limited our options, but we made the best of it.  We managed 6 nice trout and 2 big flounder by 10:00 and called it a day.  The kids did well and Josh did it all on his zebco rod.  They really love to fish and it is neat to see people who really enjoy their time on the water.

I was part of a 2 boat trip today with Ron and Jon.  These guys were better than the movie Grumpy Old Men.  They could fish and the kept me laughing all day long.  Our first stop netted us 8 nice trout and thenwe scratched for a while picking up 2 trout and 2 nice flounder.  We then finished our limit of trout and went to find some reds.  We managed only 1, but it was w beauty.  Jon caught a 30 1/2 inch red and he made sure to let everyone know about it.  We ended up with 20 trout, 2 flounder and a red.  This is a yearly thing for these guys and it was really neat to see good friends having fun on the water.  I was a replacement for their usual guide today, but they said I am on the team now.  I don't know if I could have laughed any harder today.

I got a late start today, but the fish didn't mind.  Tony and I quickly boxed 18 nice trout and spotted a BIG blacktip shark on Mudd Island.  The dolphins ate us up today, but the fish are still here.
