Speckled trout should be the day — Nine Mile and the Badlands guts, not a wade across the flat.

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

Where

  • Baffin Bay rocks · 7.2serpulid reef on a low slack tide is a workable match.
  • TX - Mustang Island SP bayside launch · 7.2serpulid reef on a low slack tide is a workable match.

Day

low

Giant trevally should be the day — the throats — this is why the week is booked. Work the leeward shore — fly gets harder.

Where

  • Farquhar passes · 8.1pass jetty on a outgoing tide is a classic match.
  • Farquhar lagoon · 6.7hard flat on a outgoing tide is a workable match.
