| Sight casting the Lower Laguna Madre flats is my passion preferably fly fishing or with light spinning tackle. Imagine seeing a redfish at 100 feet in less than 12" of clear water. The boat eases closer. The pressure builds, but you make your cast, and the clouser drops silently 3 feet from the red's nose. A gentle strip, and you watch the fish eat your well-presented fly. It's about now that you'll wonder who got hooked.
The successful approach to this moment requires expertise and stealthy equipment such as my Maverick HPX/T poling skiff. Reds, trout, and snook are our normal targets with occasional opportunities for Tarpon. Half or full day trips for 1-2 anglers are available March through November, departing from Island Outfitters on the island. All levels of fly-casting ability are welcome. Tackle available on request. |
