Fish still hungry even when the wind blows
Anglers report mixed results across Texas coast as sustained winds and shifting tides challenge fishing. Sabine Lake yields sheepshead and black drum near jetties. Galveston and Matagorda bays offer trout, redfish, and black drum with varying water clarity. Local guides note water conditions, back bays, and channel hotspots as prime spots for scattered catches.
