I’m from San Antonio, Tx but promise I should have been born on an island or somewhere closer to the water. Just about every weekend can find me along the Texas coast searching for that next bite or just enjoying the outdoors if the fish aren’t cooperating. Whether it is miles down the beach for an offshore fishing session or inland to enjoy the gin clear waters my wife and daughter love to tag along. Heck they even love to tag along to Florida for the kayak tournaments. In my area the main target of species is red drum, speckled trout and flounder. Hard to beat the fight of a big brute red drum year round but every winter the larger trout are a handful. When the Texas surf and it’s infinite sand bars allows you can chase the schools of Spanish mackerel and king mackerel which make long incredibly fast runs on light gear. If you are fortunate enough to find some structure holding Red Snapper it’s on!
