Port O'Connor Fishing Reports

Catching them in the tight confines of a narrow bayou is tricky to say the least but James said "I finally got them going" and that made for lots of smiles for guests of Chad R.

James reported lots of fish holding in the larger shallow bays but said they were pretty hard to pen down on a bite.

we counted more than a dozen Trout over 28" cruising a flat on the last day of duck season

That has made things at the boat ramp extremely complicated and treacherous with boaters piling up on flats and grounding out all over the place

Redfish mixed with big schools of Black Drum got jumped by Capt. Chris Cady and Capt. Donnie Heath working with Cast & Blast guests after morning hunts.

Capt. James Cunningham reported a big water fallout overnight with nagging West winds dropping bay levels substantially.

Full moon phase with early slick offs continued to make morning hunts a little bit tricky with just a huge disparity in morning and afternoon success.

We've had some great hunts the past few days along with a few heartbreakers and "best laid plans" but all in all we're holding up between weather

We hope that you had a wonderful Christmas and we're wishing everyone the brightest of New Years!

Capt. Nathan Beabout reported an outstanding series of trips on soft plastics and slow movers taking solid Trout to 25" and plenty of numbers in some nice pre-frontal weather windows.
