Day

low

Giant trevally should be the day — Ste Anne and the inner edges — a GT, not the Alphonse photograph. Work the leeward shore — fly gets harder.

18 mph SE · rain · incoming

Where

  • Ste Anne Marine Park · 5.6sand dropoff on a incoming tide is a workable match.

Day

medium

Redfish should be the day — wait — slack on a border estuary is a pause, not a hunt.

7 mph SSE · rain · high slack

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

Where

  • Texas Point / Sabine Pass · 6.7pass jetty on a high slack tide is a secondary match.
  • Keith Lake Cut · 6.6marsh drain on a high slack tide is a secondary match.
  • Sabine Bank · 6.3pass jetty on a high slack tide is a secondary match.
