Redfish should be the day — fish the wind-blown shoreline — the table is not the tide here.

Wind not in · outgoing

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

Where

  • San Luis Pass · 8.4pass jetty on a outgoing tide is a classic match.
  • Galveston North Jetty · 8.4pass jetty on a outgoing tide is a classic match.
  • Trinity Bay shoreline · 8.4marsh drain on a outgoing tide is a classic match.
