What a pleasure it was to sit down with Rob Shumske. He is a veteran fly fisherman on in our Galveston Bay Complex. He and his wife Jen are putting on the Feather Flickers Tournament this November 7th. There are a few slots left! Go grab em!

On this episode I recap last week's trip and then dive into the anatomy of a redfish. Their vision, hearing, lateral line and metabolism are all explored.

What will the effects of Bertha be on the marshes? Step by step guide to the annual motor service | Crazy high water temps in the back lakes.

I'm kind of all over the place this week. I correct a fact I got wrong about the MLLW, tell a story about dropping a lower unit on my foot and a note left on my windshield...

We're all over the map today. I'll explain why the blue water shows up in the summer and how to pick your beachfront fishing window. I also recap my trip to Grand Cayman and the reports I'm hearing about what's happening here on the home waters.

Well we stayed in the home waters and ate some crow. Caught a couple redfish but didn't get the finish we wanted.

It looks like Summer is finally here!

Storm surge, Lots of rain run off. Muddy water. It must be time for a fly tournament.

Lots to cover this week. My 11 yr old son and I fished the Galveston Redfish Tournament in waters I hadn't ever been in. I also explored a new area in my scouting attempts for the Galveston Classic. My buddy Mark caught a state record Black Drum but didn't do all of the registration to claim it.

This week I recap a trip where we got shots at sheepshead, a big ugly, a bull red and a triple tail all in one morning. We'll also discuss the salinity maps and how I use it to select my fishing areas after lots of rainfall occurs.
