Fished from 6:30-9 am this Saturday morn, and only managed two keeper trout in Aransas Bay. Did not see many others catching either. Bright, big moon might be part of the reason for slowness.

Fished copano this morning from 630 to 10am fair amount of action early on 3" baby trout skitter walk but very little else. Lots of boats around but I did not see anyone catching and no one was cleaning when I got back to the ramp

Sleep in maybe. I've always has better results after or right before a full moon around mid-morning.

We fished turtle pen early 7-9 and then Newcombe later until about noon. No keepers either place. Where was the bite on late morning?

Fished Ayres Bay which is not too far East from Rockport, caught all my trout from 11 on, found a nice school of fat trout, smallest one was 19 3/4, largest close to 24 1/2. Waded a shoreline early, bait and fish everywhere except on my hook, lol. Caught the trout anchored on a reef in about 5 ft of water.

Deep. We were wading chest deep off of a flat with lots of bait and the fish were deeper, windward side.

We fished Copano on Saturday morning to early after noon. Caught a few trout two of which were 20" and 21". Also in the same location i caught a 40" Jack Crevalle, which took all of at least 30 minutes to reel in. After that the bite slowed down not much else. Went out this morning and tried a few reefs, wind was light out of the ESE about 10-15. Saw no bait only caught a couple of gaff top. Moved to a gas well, then wind started picking up fast out of ENE. It also got darker, started heading in wind was 20 to 30 and gusting waves were about 2 1/2' to 3'. It was rough, didn't get rained on but got drenched by the spray. The wind picked up quick and out of known where, anybody on here get caught in that.
