4/6/2018I had the Dusty R. group of 4 onboard tonight. Conditions were poor, with SSE wind at 20-30mph and very high tide levels. After a long rough boat ride out, we found a area holding reasonable water clarity. Most of the fish tonight were holding very shallow over soft mud and grass bottom. We made quick work of them, despite the nasty weather conditions. We ended with a 20 flounder limit by 9:50pm (1 hour 35 minutes of gigging). The fish were solid and fat, with most in the 17-20" range. Upcoming open dates: April: 8, 9, 11, 17-19, 23-26, 30 May: 1, 6-9, 12-17, 19-24, 27, 28 June: 5, 8, 10-15, 17-19, 21, 24-30I also do "late trips" if I finish quickly with my first group. Late trips usually leave the dock 10pm-1am. Please call for availability. This is the best way to get a trip on short notice when I am already booked. Price: $550 for 3 people, $100 each additional person, up to 6 people Capt. Rick Hammond Night Stalker Guide Service - Rockport, TX nightstalkerguideservice.com 361-229-6053

The beard shows the wind strength.
Tourney Kayak anglers will be out in full force today despite the winds changing to the north at 25 mph.
Just left their TKF-San Antonio Capt. meeting where I donated some TEXAS RATTLER jigs ... and some of the Black/GoldEye that's lethal on flounder caught by a rod n' reel.
