Fishing the Texas Coast: Mild Weather, Active Fish, and Sustainable Practices for a Successful Day on the Water

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
If you're heading out to fish in the Gulf of Mexico along the Texas coast today, here's what you need to know:
First off, the weather is looking mild and sunny for the early part of the week, with south to southeast winds up to 15 mph. However, there's a chance of late-week thunderstorms, so keep an eye on the forecast. Water temperatures are cooling quickly, which might slow down wet wading opportunities, but the fish are still active.
Tide-wise, for the Houston area, the high tide is at 1:50 AM and the low tide is at 5:05 PM today, January 2nd. These moving tides are ideal for fishing, especially around the edges of flats and in areas where baitfish and crustaceans are carried through the current[4].
Fish activity has been good, especially for redfish and speckled trout. Yesterday, anglers reported catching reds and trout in the shallow flats around Rockport and Port Aransas. Reds are tailing and podding up on small brown shrimp and sheepshead minnows, while trout are active in feeder channels and the edges of the intercoastal[1][5].
For lures, the Flats Buggs with double bunny tails or curl tails are proving deadly. Try using small hair bugs, gurglers, or poppers, especially in olive, black, purple, and small tan shrimp patterns. For topwaters, tan toads, grizzly seaducers, and "roadkills" are working well on sight-casting to larger reds[1][3].
Live shrimp are also a great bait, particularly for trout in feeder channels and for redfish while drifting on gaswell flats. Sheepshead are biting well at the old causeway near South Padre using live shrimp[5].
Hot spots include the edge flats and channel edges around Rockport and Port Aransas, especially during high sun and mid-week walks. North Levy Wall and Pleasure Island are also producing phenomenal catches of speckled trout and redfish. Concentrate on small potholes scattered over big flats, around 2 feet deep, for good results[1][5].
Remember to ease into the flats and avoid burning shorelines to kick up fish. With the new regulations in place, be sure to limit your kill of gamefish, especially larger trout, and consider catch, photo, and release to help conserve the population[1].
