A Day of Records - 4k - Fly Fishing the Upper Texas Coast for Redfish from a Solo Skiff Kayak

I was lucky enough to have a buddy invite me to stay the weekend on the water in the San Louis Pass area. Conditions were average with murky water. The Ugly Crab fly ended up being the ticket. The Redfish were hungry and dumb. The cloud cover pushed me to the shallows next to the grass, but if there was sun, stalking these copper bruisers was a breeze. Tight Lines, I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for Watching!

Awesome, I’ve been dying to do some saltwater fly fishing here in Florida!

[@FlyFishingTexas]

Go grab a set up on marketplace and get out there! I would love to fish Florida!

[@gillboygd]

@@FlyFishingTexas I will for sure!

[@roymyers8575]

Plenty of action around PCB

@@FlyFishingTexas I'll be in Corpus March 1-may 30, always into a road trip. I've been fishing the panhandle of Florida for eight years.

[@FlyFishingTexas]

Fishing around Corpus can be tough. I would suggest the flats adjacent to the lighthouse lakes, the area around Wilson’s cut, or the flats behind Packery Channel

[@lukekeller3-16]

Awesome video , where are you at on the coast .

[@FlyFishingTexas]

I usually fish from Port O Connor down to Baffin Bay but I just moved to the Galveston area

[@Kermitboi626]

crazy how accurate your cast are in that wind

[@FlyFishingTexas]

Thank you! It takes a ton of practice! The trick is learning how much your line will drift… that day I was leading as much as 10’ on a long cast

[@huntlife89]

[@FlyFishingTexas]

I use 8wts and my favorite is a custom rod I made from the mudhole custom tackle native blank. I also like the TFO Axiom II

[@texaspunisher8594]

[@FlyFishingTexas]

9 out of 10 times I throw a small, olive redfish crack variation that has a rabbit strip tail.
