not answering your question, but we've had great times at South Padre around Thanksgiving, including blackwater and kings at the jetties.

Biggest red to date on Thanksgiving. Also seen lots of flounder, sheepshead and mangrove snapper around then depending on conditions. Live shrimp on a 2/0 Kahle hook. 12 in leader and a small 1/8 oz weight above it. You'll have to put up with some smart bait thieves, but should still pay off. I like dropping it just in front of the last rock you can see in the water.

Best bull reds I caught last year was Christmas week in really nasty surf. Look for crabs in the "wash".

I used to fish the North Jetty in Port A on Thanksgiving. Turkey sandwiches, beer and a small portable TV to watch the Cowboy game. Always caught fish.

Best trip I have had was Thanksgiving a few years ago. Caught reds and black drum in the surf in front of the Island House. We are going to be there this Thanksgiving to try it again.
