| This morning was calm and sunny, and Copano was a mirror as I paddled across the bay before daylight. I began working the shoreline as soon as there was light to see, knowing that with a full moon it ... |

| With all the rain lately, there is a LOT of fresh water flowing into Copano. I took Friday morning off and paddled 11 miles, surveying a lot of spots and looking for salty water and fish. The river is ... |

| Saturday I paddled across the bay in the darkness to be on site as daylight arrived. I knew the winds would come up quickly, and that kills my sight fishing chances. The fish have been cruising the op ... |

| Wednesday was the best window for BTB but there were meetings at work that kept me off the water. How did you do? |

| After weeks of wandering lonely shorelines with barely a redfish visible, I finally had success Saturday while storms rolled through. Not sure if I just got lucky or if I was seeing a pattern, I retur ... |

| Conditions just before daylight were interesting, but I wasn't about to turn around and call off a fishing trip. At the launch rain was coming down and winds were blowing. I guessed 20mph… but the wea ... |

| This morning with wind and clouds (and light rain coming and going) I paddled 13 miles of shorelines. I didn't expect much, but did find several feeding fish. Most were on protected shorelines, and we ... |

If you don’t get to BTB soon you’ll miss the spring Jacks
For that I need two things: winds to come down, and my work to give me a chance to chase the fish. I'm watching for windows ... |
