one of the best things about texas
redfish is their year-round availability
from younger fish in the marshes to big
bulls along the state's coastline
there's bound to be some good action
whenever you book your trip
each season has its charms but there are
some migration patterns to keep in mind
when choosing when and where to go
those of you looking to go after bigger
redfish won't want to miss out on the
action in the fall from september
through november adult fish move into
open waters to spawn
you can hook them in the surf almost
anywhere along the coast including
standout locations like south padre
island and sabine pass which deliver in
both size and numbers
for an inshore experience rivaled by few
head out in the spring
the fish aren't as big but this is when
shallow water fishing is at its peak
the coastal marshes from galveston bay
to san antonio as well as the lower
laguna madre are full of action this
time of year and accessible to a variety
of anglers
you can even get lucky here in the
winter months just remember to keep an
eye out for the weather before you head
out on your trip
on sunnier days you can stick around the
flats whereas on cooler overcast days
you should set your sights on deeper
waters
last but not least summertime offers you
the best of both worlds choose to target
smaller fish in shore for the ideal
family-friendly outing or head out into
open waters to chase big bull reds the
summer months are the best time to go
fishing in texas so who knows what else
you'll catch
aside from being plentiful and available
year round another thing that makes
redfish an attractive target is the
number of techniques you can use to hook
them from fly fishing in the marshes to
surf fishing along the coast these fish
respond well to both natural and
artificial baits
if you want to go back to basics
spinning is a great way to approach your
targets you don't need a complicated
setup and you can choose between live
bait like mullet and shrimp or
artificials like soft plastics
if you want to take it up a notch
fishing in the grass flats and marshes
with plugs or flies is hard to beat
this is especially fun to try in the
winter and early spring when the waters
are clear enough for sight casting

fish hit your line with all the ferocity
that hungry redfish are known for

texas redfish are some of the most
versatile targets out there if you still
