Rain down south from tropical storm Harold moving in north of the LLM. I would look at the Arroyo Colorado if you get an influx of freshwater there!

Winds are low on the Laguna Madre right now, and the fish are here. I'll probably get in trouble again for telling you, but there it is! Much of the action still concentrates at Port Mansfield, but the sand (now slowly being covered in grass!) is lively too. Haven't had a chance to make it back to Gulfside fly fishing yet, but the wind abides!

In case you ever wondered what I was doing down on South Padre Island, for SIX MONTHS! (2022-2023) - here is the Los Pescadores Coffee & Outfitters business I did the startup for down there on my childhood homewaters - - - I was very pleased to see the sense of "community" I so badly wanted to take root, HAS taken root and is flourishing right now! It is an exciting time for the Lower Laguna Madre, and the fly fishing this past week was great - with A LOT OF HELP from my friend Jim Ford. Fish photos coming soon!

Wife and I were staying at a resort right next to it this weekend. We had breakfast in there Saturday and Sunday. Nice place and the avocado toast was excellent

Remember what our friend Larry Haines said, "... leave off the flash in the fly when you tie it, and skipjacks tend to leave it alone more often." Have yet to get back and try that, but I believe it - coming from Larry Haines

Yeah, pretty cool. Was fun to do that startup, but it really cut back on my fly fishing while I was there!
