Saltwater Fishing Report

Body
East Matagorda Bay FAIR. 62 degrees. The weather has finally settled so redfish, trout and drum are now biting all over the bay. Drifting with live shrimp under a popping cork will land you catches of all three, or wade with artificials for trout and redfish. Bait camps have plenty of bait. Report by Captain Charlie Paradoski, Captain Charlie Paradoski’s Guide Service.
