Strong south winds linger mudding Laguna Madre fishing
The water remains muddy from dredging and deep sea boats return for rough seas though overall fishing is fair. Captains Ghilain, Kingery, Murphy, Stockton, Shattuck and others report red snapper, whiting, trout, king mackerel, bonitas, and ling caught aboard several vessels with bay and pier anglers also tallying good catches. Local tips urge caution on jetties and recommend safe shore options as weather continues to affect conditions.
