Salt water fishing sees fish despite hurricane activity
Rod and Gun anglers report mild hurricane impact on salt water fishing with speckled trout flounder and creakers in multiple bays and reefs. Successful catches include 31 speckle trout at Cow Trap Lake, 50 fish at Half Moon reef, and several large speckled trout near Galveston jetties. Reports note scarce live shrimp, possible early kingfish movement, and a deadly fish influx around Morgan's Point. Freshwater reports show bass and perch activity at Highlands reservoir. New Madrid Missouri is noted in a historical aside.
