I am hoping all of you are enjoying a good and prosperous year as we begin to close out 2024. The fall season has been more like summer in the temperature department and as of this morning we have yet to have a serious cold front. We did have a front move through this morning and local weather forecast is for mid-50's to lower 50's tonight so maybe we are finally going to see a decent drop in water temperatures and hopefully as the NE winds drop off the tides will begin to fall. In 47 years of fishing, I cannot recall having tides this high for this long. As tides drop, we will see a concentration of bait fish and game fish along bay area shorelines and shallow flats from Port O Connor all the way to Brownsville.
We have yet to see a winter pattern come into effect, but we are getting closer with the passage of each frontal system.
