WeedBegone Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Any body got ideas for saltwater spots next week. I am ready to go try some spots. Water temp still a little cool. Any reports from the Sabine Lake bulkheads by the marina? Any from Sabine Pass State Park? I am also even interestead trying for whiting on the coast if it is not too early. I need a nibble, I need a bite I need something to do with my rod in my left and my real in my right.
mat Posted March 7, 2013 Report Posted March 7, 2013 I haven’t been this year so I don’t have any personal experience to offer. (But no one else has offered anything). The weather is looking great for most of next week with possible lower winds towards the end of week. (it's too early to really know) It may be a good opportunity to hit the lake. If I were going and the lower winds hold true I would consider the beach for whiting, but I like fishing the surf.
mat Posted March 8, 2013 Report Posted March 8, 2013 I've also heard of Flounder being caught along the Pleasure Island steps
WeedBegone Posted March 8, 2013 Author Report Posted March 8, 2013 Sounds lke i need to try both the surf and the island. Thanks for the info, I will try and keep you posted. There should be nuff fish out there for both of us. 8)
bullets13 Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 go out to the neches and fish. the pros are out there pre-fishing right now. we got to stop and talk to a couple of them for a few minutes, which was pretty cool. of course, it's the neches, so the fishing isn't very good.

They are all over the place here in Orange. The boat ramp is staging up. I saw this one and many others in the lot yesturday.http://www.kogt.com/
bullets13 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 We talked to Jason Christie and John Crews on the water yesterday, plus a guy I didn't recognize, and saw Dean Rojas and another guy I didn't recognize
westend1 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 FYI. I have a friend who killed the flounder fishing the Louisiana shoreline Saturday. Using mud minnows in the bayous north of blue buck.

WeedBegone Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Posted March 14, 2013 I did catch a couple of keeper flounder and released one. Also reeled in about a 7 inch whiting trying to mate with a 4 inch plastic. Gonna try the coast tomorrow.
bullets13 Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 Caught 9 bass yesterday afternoon, 5 keepers on Toledo. The day before kept 8 trout and 2 flounder.

WeedBegone Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Posted March 14, 2013 Pleasure Island on the bulkhead by the RV park. Tide coming in was hindered by the North wind that was behind schedule getting out of here. Flounders were 13 14 and 15. I was thinking about the patttern and how long it would take to get to 20. :)
bullets13 Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 Slow this morning. Caught 6 bass this afternoon, all keepers. I did catch a 5 lb channel cat on a wacky worm this morning.
bullets13 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 i had the chance to fish a couple of days at toledo this past week. the bite wasn't real hot and heavy, but when it came it was usually a pretty good fish.[img]http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5449/withdave.png[/img]
mat Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 Nice to know someone was able to get some fishing in during spring break. Hopefully things will slow down for me in the next couple of weeks.
westend1 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 We caught several nice trout at Sabine Sunday, while fighting 25 mph winds. A couple were around 23". Would post pics but never remember how.
ST413 Posted March 19, 2013 Report Posted March 19, 2013 Spent the last day and a half on Rayburn, the bite really picked up late this evening. Must have caught 6 or 8 between 6:45 and 7:15. None of any size but did bring home a nice mess of fish.
ST413 Posted March 19, 2013 Report Posted March 19, 2013 We have see eagles on the lake regularly but this morning we had four flying over us. That is the most we have ever seen at one time. Two of them even fought for a moment free falling until they were maybe 75 yards above the water where they seperated and went back to soaring.
