Left desk

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. The wind is the tide. Work the leeward shore.

20 mph SSE · 31% rain · 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.
  • TX - PINS South Beach miles 0-5 · 7.8pass jetty on a incoming tide is a classic match.
  • TX - Yarborough Pass (PINS mile 15.5) · 7.8pass jetty on a incoming tide is a classic match.

Calcasieu / Cameron

8.0OF 10

Day

medium

Redfish should be the day — lake guts and the ship-channel edges until it turns.

12 mph SSW · 18% rain · low slack

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

Where

  • Calcasieu Pass · 7.3pass jetty on a low slack tide is a secondary match.
  • Calcasieu Lake reefs · 7.1oyster reef on a low slack tide is a workable match.
  • Cameron jetties · 6.8pass jetty on a low slack tide is a secondary match.
