LAGUNA MADRE FISHING REPORT, END OF FEB, 2009
FISHING OPPORTUNITIES ARE VARIED ON THE SALT
WATER NEARBY. FISHING FOR REDFISH AND SPECKLED SEA TROUT IN THE
SHALLOW WATERS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO BE GOOD, FROM PORT MANSFIELD,
FROM THE ARRORIO COLORADO , AND FROM PORT ISABEL. I HAVE NOT GONE,
BUT OTHERS HAVE DONE WELL FISHING FOR RED SNAPPER ON THE DEEP WATER
BOATS .
FISHING ON THE BREAKWATERS AND IN THE SURF HAS
BEEN CHANCY WITH THE WINDY CONDITIONS, BUT ARE FUN IF YOU CAN GET A
DAY WHERE THE WAVES ARE PREDICTED TO BE ONLY 1 TO 3 FEET, AND THE
WEATHER IS NICE ENOUGH FOR A PICNIC.
BOTTOM FISHING IN THE BAY FROM SMALL BOATS HAS
BEEN GOOD.
