  • Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Tides, Temps, and Trophies
    May 5 2025
    Good morning, anglers! This is Artificial Lure bringing you your Monday fishing report for the Texas Gulf Coast on May 5th, 2025.

    Folks, we've got a mixed bag of weather today with cloudy skies and sporadic rain showers, but don't let that keep you off the water! Between those rain bands, we've got some prime fishing windows. Water temperatures are sitting right around 70-76 degrees across most bay systems, creating ideal conditions for our spring patterns.

    Tides are alternating between two and four tide days, and these weather changes are triggering high fishing activity. Water levels are above normal in many areas, pushing fresh recruits of fish from the Gulf into our bay systems through those channels.

    Redfish action remains GOOD throughout Redfish Bay with water temps at 76 degrees. Over at San Antonio Bay, fishing is GOOD with water at 80 degrees. Sabine Lake is FAIR at 67 degrees, while Bolivar is GOOD at 70 degrees. Trinity Bay is running FAIR at 76 degrees.

    Speckled trout fishing has been exceptional, especially in East Matagorda Bay where anglers are connecting with some true trophies. Remember, those big mama trout are precious resources - snap a photo and let 'em swim! The east end around Brown Cedar Flats is holding more fish when tides are high, while the west end near Raymond Shoals has been producing bigger specks during low tide periods.

    Hot spots to check out: Allen's Bite and Super Flat have been holding quality fish lately. Shadrock Cove and Corpus Christi Bay are producing well with all this new water pushing onto shallow flats. For wade fishermen, the grass beds along the south shoreline of West Matagorda Bay are holding clean water, though don't overlook those dingy water areas - that's where most fish are hanging.

    Flounder action is picking up in the bayous and guts on the South Shore of West Bay. Best flounder fishing has been early morning as they move into shallow water overnight.

    For largemouth bass, recent rains have drawn down some muddy water, but the back lakes are still producing. They're snapping on frogs, lipless crankbaits, and Texas-rigged grubs.

    Bait and lure report: Live shrimp under a popping cork is the go-to producer, with finger mullet also working well. For artificial lovers, GULP, Bass Assassins, Down South Lures, Hogies, and MirrOlure Lil' Johns have all been effective. Early morning topwater action has been steady on the flats. If you're after big drum or bull reds, grab some crab.

    That's it for today, folks. Remember to wear your kill switch, take care of our fishery, and I'll catch y'all on the water!

  • "Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Trout, Reds, and More Biting Across the Coast"
    May 4 2025
    Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Sunday fishing report for the Texas Gulf Coast, May 4th, 2025.

    Folks, we've got some alternating weather patterns today, with clouds and sporadic rain showers, but don't let that keep you off the water. There are plenty of dry spells between the winds that'll give you some prime fishing opportunities.

    Water temperatures along the coast are sitting pretty between 70-80 degrees, just right for active feeding. The tides are interesting this weekend - we've been seeing alternating patterns between two and four tide days, which has been triggering some excellent fish activity with these weather changes.

    The reports coming in from across the coast have been mighty encouraging. Speckled trout fishing has been on fire, with some anglers in East Matagorda Bay landing specimens as long as your arm. Remember folks, with those big ones, it's smile, snap a photo, and release. Our trout population is still recovering from that 2021 freeze, and it's good to see Texans taking care of our resources.

    Redfish action has been steady, with Redfish Bay and the Bolivar area reporting GOOD conditions. Black drum are also making a strong showing, especially around structures and piers in the Texas City area.

    For you bass enthusiasts, largemouth are snapping in the back lakes. They're hitting frogs, lipless crankbaits, and Texas-rigged grubs. The catfish bite is literally on fire on the bulkheads if you're using fresh-caught shad.

    As for hot spots, I'd recommend checking out Allen's Bite and Super Flat, where the big tides are pouring in from the Gulf bringing fresh recruits. Shadrock Cove and Corpus Christi Bay have been producing well with all that water pushing onto the shallow flats. For flounder enthusiasts, the bios and guts on the South Shore of West Bay have been productive, especially early morning as those flatties pull up shallow.

    Bait-wise, live shrimp and finger mullet have been the ticket, but if you're targeting those monster black drum or bull reds, try using crab. For artificial enthusiasts, GULP under a popping cork has been deadly, along with Bass Assassins, Down South Lures, and MirrOlure Lil' Johns. Texas custom Corkies and mirror softs along the sand and grass have been scoring trout up to 5 pounds.

    For wade fishermen, the grass beds along the south shoreline of West Matagorda Bay hold clean water when the south wind kicks up above 15 knots, but don't overlook those dingy water areas - that's where most of the fish are hiding.

    That's your report for today, May 4th, 2025. This is Artificial Lure reminding you to always wear your kill switch and take care of our waters. Tight lines, y'all!

  • Texas Gulf Coast Fishing Report: Spring Patterns, Bountiful Bays, and Tips for Your Next Outing
    May 3 2025
    Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Saturday fishing report for the Texas Gulf Coast, May 3rd, 2025.

    We’re rolling into May with spring patterns holding strong, and the bays are coming alive after those heavy rains in April. Water temperatures are sitting pretty in the mid to upper 70s, ideal for stirring up feeding activity. Expect partly cloudy skies and a mix of spotty showers through the weekend, so pack your rain jacket just in case and check the forecast before heading out. Today’s sunrise was right around 6:35 AM and sunset will be about 7:55 PM, so you’ve got a full day to get on the bite.

    Let’s talk tides. We’re seeing some good movement with alternating two to four tide swings this week, which should keep fish active, especially right after a tide change and during those early morning and late evening windows.

    Recent catches have been solid all around. Speckled trout are showing up in strong numbers across Galveston, East Matagorda, and the upper coast bays. There’s word of big trout being caught in East Matagorda Bay, especially around Brown Cedar Flats and Raymond Shoals. Wading those grass beds and sandy guts on the south shoreline is producing, particularly when the water’s a little off-color. Wade fishing from the dike in Texas City continues to be a reliable option.

    Redfish are cruising the shorelines, especially around the Galveston Jetties and in the marsh cuts. The bull reds are still hot at the Galveston Jetties and can be caught on live finger mullet or big chunks of crab. Black drum are hanging around deeper structure and piers, and the sheepshead are sticking close to pilings and rock formations. Catfish are on fire up the rivers and bayous if you’re looking for a change of pace.

    For bait, live shrimp under a popping cork is the ticket for most species right now, but those working artificial lures aren’t left out. GULP! swimming mullet, Bass Assassins, Down South Lures, Hogie’s, and MirrOlure Lil’ Johns are all putting fish in the boat. Lipless crankbaits and Texas-rigged grubs are working for bass up river too. If you want to chase a monster black drum or bull red, throw out a hunk of crab or cut bait.

    Hot spots to try today: East Matagorda Bay around Brown Cedar Flats, wading the south shoreline grass beds, and the Galveston Jetties for those bull reds and drum. For shoreline and easy access, wade the levee or anywhere along the Texas City dike.

    All in all, it’s shaping up to be another strong spring day on the water. Good luck out there, keep an eye on the weather and tides, and remember to handle those big trout with care if you’re lucky enough to catch one.

    Tight lines from Artificial Lure!
