Houston Fishing

858 Views 5 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Kyle Smith
It looks like I will be down in the Houston area for work mid August to mid September. Has anybody ever fished down there? Any luck?

I'm hoping for maybe a redfish trip if the season is right. There are a few fly shops down that way so I will be asking them for tips as well when the dates get closer. Just looking for bits of knowledge where I can.

Thanks!

Gorgeous time of year to be in a gorgeous city

No insight on fishing but think that gets in the front end of some of the good bull redfish.
I rented a kayak and fished lighthouse lakes by Port Aransas for reds

I highly recommend the Whole Foods on Houston St, I think it's at either Lexington or Lafayette Ave. Close to the 6 train.

Quick update on the Houston trip. I made it down to fish the bay. Fishing flats of something else, it's like nothing else I've ever done. In some spots you can wait out 3 to 400 yards. I've been throwing basic Clowser patterns and I've been having mild success. I have caught a baby Jack, a few Seatrout, a needlefish, a baby ladyfish, And two baby redfish.

I'm still hoping to get on a few tailing fish before I am done

I had the opportunity to go down there last fall, but a hurricane took care of that. Texas looks like a warm and saltwater paradise.
