Surface water temperature 82 degrees. The water clarity is about average for East Galveston Bay, with clearer water as you get west of Elm Grove. This week we have started out our mornings with NE winds increasing and changing to East to Southeast by day end. We have focused on grass shorelines with good current and nervous shrimp present, finding Trout, Reds, and a few Flounder. Our fishing friends have utilized Imitation shrimp lures under popping corks, with a 1-foot leader, as well as 1/16 oz jig heads with tails by WacAttack & Deadly Dudley, fished slowly up in the grass and over shell beds, as well as a few fish in the intracoastal around rocks and structure. Fish Bites also performed very well when fished under a popping cork for Redfish. If you like fishing under the birds they are pretty much all over the Bay, and some have better trout mixed in every so often. If you see Reefs with birds sitting on the water, the fish are close by. The crowds have thinned, and fishing should continue to heat up after this next front comes thru helping to drop surface temps, so get your friends and family and get out on the water.
