Baffin can be good year round, but there's a bunch of submerged rocks down there, and you have to be careful. Maybe hire a guide since you never been down there before.

There's very little access to Baffin except by boat. The whole area is surrounded by the King Ranch.

I would highly recommend not boating this bay with a top notch gps/depthfinder and knowledge. Because of the large submerged rock and difficult of navigation is why guides are slightly higher. The best time for trophy trout will be jan/feb. I just got back from Rockport and had great luck in 3-3.5' water on a mirrolute mirromullet 4" for trout and redfish in the backside of mud island and San Jose.

baffin is great fishing... almost year around. Fishing off a pier will limit the 'greatness" of it though. the best wade fishing spots I know of are only accessable by a boat though.
