Fishing Reports
Feb. 2, 2012.....Well there was some consistency with the weather
this week. We had warmer temperatures most of the week. Had fog
and then we had bad fog. We had rain and then we had more rain.
But through it all we caught some good fish and yes even the birds
worked a little this week. I know, it hard to believe, but these
warm days brings out Spring type behaviors. Here are a few pictures.
Scott Groves with a good speckled trout and BJ Hendrickson and
sons caught some fish throwing plastics.

January 22, 2012.....Between the foggy mornings and the cool
temperatures we had a great week of catching fish in Matagorda
Bay. Fish are on the bottom side next to the shell and mud. Bouncing
Kelley Wigglers in Plum/Blue Metal Flake with Chart. tails and
Mirrolures in the 808 pattern produced some big trout. Here are
a few pictures. Doug Griffith with a solid 25 in. trout and his
friend Abel with a good group of fish. It will be time again for
the moonlight trips to be great if the weather holds up. There
are still good big flounder in the bay.

January 14, 2012....Times are great in Matagorda for Wintertime
Fishing. We were out yesterday, (Friday), doing our best to put
some break-in hours on my new 200 Optimax Pro XS and caught a
limit of reds and trout. Caught them all on Kelley Wigglers in
Plum Blue Metal Flake in the ball tail and Niteglow chart tail
in the paddle tail. If you have not had a chance to fish with
a Waterloo Rod you need to consider this soon. WOW, what a treat
to have a fishing rod like that. Thanks go out to Jimmy Burns
and company at Waterloo. The bay is a beautiful site in the morning
with the sun coming up and the water is crystal clear in most
areas.
Here are a few pictures from yesterday. Hope you enjoy them and
please book a trip now for only $400. Cal me at 832-692-5565.

Dec 1, 2011......What a great last two weeks of fishing in Matagorda,
Texas, in Matagorda Bay. Brett Dietze and five of his friends
caught some great fish while drifting East Bay using Olive/Red
Metal Flake Ball-tails by Kelley Wiggler. Get you some now by
calling or emailing Kelly Wiggler. Will Graber and his two sons
William and Andrew caught a mess of fish while drifting in the
river after a rainstorm that morning. Andrew the youngest boy
was the fish whisperer this day. He caught so many fish, his hand
was hurting. They ended up with 20 trout. Want to thank my brother
Steve for allowing us to get out of the weather for about an hour.
Thanks Steve. If you have not seen the beautiful Bald Eagles up
the river you are missing a maganificiant sight. There are several
pairs. Want to thank my partner Capt. Coach Ciruti for coming
to the rescue. My Mercury EFI 150 finally crashed after 12 years
of use. Had a party that day and we swapped boats and he pulled
it in for me.....WOW....that was great. Caught some good redfish
in river and in west bay. Robert Coffey had a great time catching
some big redfish in west bay.

Nov. 4, 2011....Caught fish all week long and even during the
norther. Great time to be fishing in Matagorda. Had three trips
this week on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Tuesday Dick Walton,
Leber Beall and I caught fish all day long. Used Olive Red Metal
flake KELLEY WIGGLERS in the Balltail version. On Thursday Scott
Reeh and I, during the norther,whacked them hard after we found
some drains in the bay and the fish were feeding hard before that
high pressure got on them. Once again used BLACK and Chartruese
ball tails from KELLY WIGGLER. Friday we whacked them with my
friend Rick Brooks in the River. He used a white gulp and I used
that KELLY WIGGLER, olive/red metal flake balltail. Here are some
pictures.
