The water clarity is average for East Galveston Bay, with better clarity west of Yates. The redfish bite was excellent for us this week, around drains and in the very shallow water areas back in the marsh. We are still using Imitation shrimp lures & tails under popping corks, with a 1-foot leader to trigger bites, as well as Deadly Dudley Rat Tails, and WacAttack Flukes, in light colors with 1/4 oz jig heads. Jerkbaits and swimbaits are still triggering some bites as well, if you like throwing those style baits. The last few days on the flats, we have enjoyed most of our success on the Popping Cork with artificial catching the best trout, andthe most numbers. We have been catching some nice Flounder on our early am trips on high tides up in the flooded grass. The Reef action has started to pick up, when the conditions allow it, so keep that in mind as well.
