Although have never fished or stayed in one of the houses along the river which allows one to fish there At least one, if not others here have and have posted threads here you might view. I don't recall the poster's name, but he has posted several times here and is very much into the gear he uses. If I can recall the persons id I will repost for you.
I think the person who has posted several times about fishing there is "buldog1935", and has posted on the fly fishing forum, as well. Maybe you could look at his prior posts? |

edwardsjethro: I've fished the Arroyo many times, but only once at a waterfront house. In March, several of us were there. The best "catching" off the dock was around 4:00 AM. Use some "glow" artificials, or live shrimp. Very small, dark blue plastics worked best. Turn the dock lights on before dark, to keep the fish around. Pitch into the dark, and slowly drag your bait into the light.
I usually fish 6 miles East to the ICW in my skiff.
If you have some specific questions, you can send me a PM. I know bulldog1935. He's a tremendous source of info, but he doesn't post here much. Might respond to a PM, maybe not. Have fun!
Oh, yeah, don't fail to eat at Chilly Willy's. Best(and only) restaurant. TexasJim _________________ TexasJim

there was a guy on here a couple of years ago who fished AC every year and did a lot of posting on it. think his name was bulldog1935. do some research and you may get some good info on the area and its fishing potential. _________________ Now that food has replaced my sex life I can't even get into my own pants!!!!!!!!
