The surface water temperature is 58 degrees, and water clarity is stained for the most part, with a couple of areas with better clarity west of Elm Grove. Most of our success remains back in the marsh/bayou areas where one can get some protection from the strong wind and wave action.
The Redfish bite remains consistent in areas where good current flow has bait up against the shorelines/grass lines in 1 to 3 feet of water around oyster shells on Wac Attack Tails in Chartreuse, fished with 1/8 oz heads, as well as weightless presentations.
The trout have preferred an erratic presentation with pauses, targeting deeper pockets close to channel bends/deeper drops with shell, triggering the most bites. The lighter the jig head the better, determined by the wind and current, and tails without paddles, performing the best.
Water Temperature has remained steady this week, we just need the winds to cease a little to allow us to fish more of our winter time areas that seem to be blown out, week after week.
