Surface water temperature 84 degrees. The water clarity is still stirred up in East Galveston Bay, with clearer / saltier water as you get west of Stingaree with a distinct line as you venture closer over towards Galveston. This week we have endured strong North/Northeast winds, which have forced us to pick and choose the areas where we can fish effectively. We have spent most of our fishing time on protected shorelines in the intracoastal finding trout, reds, black drum and flounder, around structure with good tide movement. We have utilized Imitation shrimp lures under popping corks, as well as 1/4 oz jig heads with tails by WacAttack fished slowly. Fish Bites also performed very well when fished under a popping cork.
The crowds are thinning now that Labor Day has passed, and fishing should continue to be very good, with less fishing pressure and cooler temps on the way, so get your friends and family and get out on the water.
