Fished the Gunsight / Padre Bay area over the long weekend and had a great time. Fishing was steady throughout the day. Fished the banks early, and deeper water as the days warmed up. We found fish on the points and in the back of coves. Shallow fish were near the brush that contained bluegills. Kept a couple of walleye for dinner, and the largest one had just eaten a 3" bluegill.

Smaller Stripers seemed to be moving around throughout the day, and were caught on a variety of baits. The smaller Stripers were nice fat fish, the larger ones were on the skinny side. Striper fishing was excellent at sundown off of points in 35' water on CD9 Redfins.

We caught Smallmouth anywhere from the bank out to 30' of water. Mostly smaller fish on the banks, and larger ones in deeper water. Most of the bass caught were Smallies, with several Largemouth to keep it interesting. All Largemouth / Smallmouth bass caught were released.

The Stripers found themselves on the wrong end of a fillet knife. Though not specifically targeted, bluegills were caught on crank baits and jigs. Bass were caught on crank baits and drop shot rigs rigged with finesse worms, or finesse shad worms. Thank you Wayne for the great job you do on the website.
