March 10 Sabine Lake Turning On!
At last we finally got a little spring time weather going. The water temps have crept up to 63 and the trout have been feeding on Sabine Lake. Yesterday afternoon, I had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Kent. When two of the best guides on Sabine Lake get together,you know something should happen. Well it did and we had a blast! We didn’t get on the water till about 4:30 afternoon and fished till around 6:00. In that short period of time,we managed to scratch out 15 trout, 1 redfish,and a flounder. The biggest trout was a 26 incher which inhaled my pink ratfish. Again for those anglers who do not know what a ratfish is, it is made by Flonder Pounder Lures. Sabine Lake trout have been loving them. Contact Joe and Phill Ortiz at Flounder Pounder.net Fishing should remain steady this week untill the passage of the pacific front predicted. Key on mullet on the flats and make drifts quitely as possible. Sabine Lake is an amazing esturary to fish. Anyone interested in booking a trip should contact me as soon as possible and I gaurantee you will have the time of your life fishing on SabineLake!
Sabine Lake Fishing!! March Madness Baby!!
March trout fishing on Sabine Lake can be hit or miss. March brings some of the most unpredictable weather of the season. One day calm seas and the next howling winds. This time of the year trout and redfish can still be caught on those windy days. The most southern pocket of Sabine Lake will start producing nice limits and quality size trout. The Reef area will be the best places to cut long drifts and find suspending trout and redfish. Incoming tides will be most productive times to fish the area. Try throwing soft plastics rigged on quater ounce jigheads. Glow/chart and pumpkin seed/chart and limetreuse will be great color choices. Here lately, trout have been moving in and off the flats. These fish in the pictures were caught Tuesday afternoon.
