Alphonse / St François

Day

low

Giant trevally should be the day — the same sand as it empties; the GT still owns the edge. Work the leeward shore — fly gets harder.

19 mph SE · outgoing

Where

texas · Baffin

Upper Laguna / Baffin

6.8OF 10

Day

low

Speckled trout should be the day — sight the grass and serpulid — do not fish Baffin like Rockport.

10 mph SSE · incoming

No live gauge this hour — the printed tide is the forecast.

Where

  • TX - Mustang Island SP · 7.8pass jetty on a incoming tide is a classic match.
