Angler Capt. Bill Pustejovsky notes fall warming with light winds and strong tides around the full moon in Matagorda Bay. He targets wading reefs near the Intracoastal, favoring East Matagorda and reefs like Long Reef and Halfmoon. His go to bait is Bass Assassin in red shad and morning glory colors as shrimp feed drives fish activity. Bird action may signal broader fishing across bays.
