Spring Fly Fishing Report For Rockport Texas – March 27th

It's the end of another week today, and also the end of Spring Break for most Texans. So after a pretty hectic couple of weeks, we are updating our Rockport Fishing Report. We will cover what all we saw on the water this past week, and also what we expect as we close out the month of March and move on to April. We've finally had a solid week of sunshine and warmer weather down here on the Texas Coast. And it was about damn time! This did great things for our fishing, compared to our last couple of Rockport fly fishing reports. The water is warming up and so

Rockport and Texas Coast Fly Fishing Report – March 21st

We were down with weather today, so a new fishing report made it on the docket. So here is a look back at how the fly fishing in Rockport, and surrounding waters, has been for the past little bit. And hopefully a look at what we are expecting in the coming weeks time. Week one of Spring Break is in the books! Week two is going on now, although things are always a little more mellow for the second week. This kind of marks the beginning of the busiest time of year around here. Days are warmer, which brings out the weekend crowds a bit more. Spring Break enhances that

Our New Black Duck Cromis with Outboard Jet

Our New Black Duck Cromis Skiff This little video was shot a few weeks ago fly fishing in Rockport, Texas for redfish. We were getting out to play in our new Cromis skiff, by Black Duck Skiffs. This skiff will be the new choice for Fly Fish Rockport when we want to get out in a micro skiff. These things are lighter, quieter and far shallower than our other Hells Bay boats. Even better, the Cromis is designed to run with a jet outboard. Hand down this is our new favorite boat! But enjoy the footage of the new boat and fishing from a calm Winter day in

Texas Coast Fly Fishing Report – February 16th

We are down with some gnarly winds today. So it seemed like a good opportunity to update the fly fishing report for Rockport, Texas and surrounding waters. It's been a little over a week since our last report and things are trying to change around here, sorta. So here is the current lay of the land down here and what we are looking at for the coming week or so down on the Texas Coast. Since our last report, it has been pretty good down on the coast. We've had more nice day than bad, which means we have been able to get a bunch of boats out on

Rockport Fishing Report – February 3rd

Apparently it's been "a while" since we've updated our Rockport fishing report. Oops! Busy busy over here, and sometimes things just slip through the cracks. But since we are sitting here, staring down the barrel of the worst cold front of the year, we find ourselves with a bit more time on our hands. So we will try to spend our time wisely and go a little housekeeping on the website, including an up to date Rockport fishing report. So, here we go. After a very warm and mild December down here on the Texas Coast, our January kind of went to crap. A couple days after New Years,

December Redfishing Refusal!!! #Shorts

Texas Redfishing Refusal!!! Well, they can't all work out... I guess. This is a short clip from the 8th of December. Calm winds, cloudy skies and lots of redfish in skinny water. But they weren't easy. This clip is pretty funny though. You never know what's gonna happen out there!

Tying G’s Black Crab For Fall and Winter Redfish

Tying G's Black Crab for Fall and Winter Redfish Captain Gibson is back with another one of his favorite redfish fly patterns. As we continue into Fall, and very soon Winter, this is a go to pattern for Capt. Gibson, as well as all of our other Fly Fish Rockport fishing guides. As our waters begin to cool a bit more in the fall, many of our sea grasses begin to die or go dormant. Many of them will turn brown and eventually float away with the tides, leaving clean mud or sand bottom behind. This black crab fly is easily seen by both the angler and the

Tying the Shminnow for Jack Crevalle in Texas

Tying The Shminnow Fly in White For Jack Crevalle and Tarpon Spring is here on the Gulf Coast of Texas. That means our migratory fish are here as well. Jacks, tarpon, kingfish and cobia are all common targets for the fly fishing guides at Fly Fish Rockport this time of year. The Shminnow is one of our favorite flies for Jack Crevalle here in Texas. Although it can work well for tarpon as well. The pattern is a bit more sleek than other topwater flies, making it much easier to cast. Yet it still floats well and dives when stripped. Tying this fly is Fly Fish Rockport Captain,

Rockport Fishing Report – May 13th

The end of the week is almost here. So we figured a Rockport fishing report would be a good idea. Hopefully we can fill you in with what to expect leading into this coming weekend, and the days beyond. So for those looking to head towards the Texas Coast to do a little fly fishing, read on as we've got you covered. First and foremost, you must know what weekend it is in Rockport. It's pretty much the worst weekend of the entire year around here. And by that we mean, crowded. It is Babes on the Bay weekend coming up. That means the largest fishing tournament of the
