Fishing my favorite spot in Rockport, Tx

- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Quick morning trip to Copano Bay in search of the drug called the tug.
I am a kayak fisherman using mostly if not all, artificial lures, popping corks, berkley gulp on a light inshore rod and reel setup with 10lb Daiwa J or Berkely Power Pro braided fishing line. My rods of choice are Cajun Custom and Falcon HD rods. I use Daiwa a Regal 2500, Pflueger President 30 and various Penn Reels.
You'll most likely find me Kayak Fishing in Corpus Christi, Aransas Pass, Ingleside, Portland, Mustang Island, Wilsons Cut, Fish Pass, Kates Hole, Wolfview Park and other saltwater fisheries in South Texas
I've been an avid Kayak Angler since June of 2022 and am constantly soaking up fishing knowledge to further my experience on the water going after redfish, speckled trout, flounder, sheepshead and whatever else may come my way! Thank you for watching/subscribing, and as always, comments are always welcomed and I will answer every single one.

Can’t tell you how much I enjoyed your no nonsense way of fishing!! Not many dude or bro comments!!! Thanks for sharing. Hope to see you in Rockport this spring!!!!!
I’ll be around for sure!
Fishing from my Kayak is the best! Great video!!!
Thank you. And I have to agree!
Great day of fishing...
Oh yeeeeaaaaah. I hope to God I hear that tomorrow
Is it tomorrow or Tuesday!?
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 I’m coming in tomorrow Fishing spending the night fishing in the morning and heading back
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 let’s see how the weather holds up
Lost a big one like that at Braunig lake on Wednesday. Awesome day!
Was definitely a heartbreaker. Hadn’t had that happen in a long time. And definitely not on an exposed hook jig head.
What a good fight that red put up. I’m doing a wade trip tomorrow and I’m hoping and praying I can hear the drag scream but also pray I don’t lose a fish like that
Good luck!
Great video brother, just subscribed to your channel. Tight lines!
Many thanks! Keep ‘em tight!
Grant,
That was a great day on the water!
My last trip there, in March, the wind kicked up as I was parking, up to 25 MPH. I put in anyway, in hopes of finding a wind break. MISTAKE! The water blew out of the cove & I got blown to & stuck on the flats. Too windy to pole out, so I had to get out & drag against the wind- got out to 2 ft water, peddled back to launch & called it a day. Bummed, but ready to head back down and give it another shot! Glad to see it being as productive as it should be!
Yikes man! Yeah that lake can be very unforgiving when the wind is howling. Luckily, tides have been high and wind moderate at most lately. Let me know when you get down this way!
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 Will Do! That would be a blast!
Dang, those were nice fish! I also love that spot, but don't get there much as I live in Phoenix.
Been hitting up some small creek marshes on mustang. New to the kayak world though, just got a vanhunks.
Welcome to the most fun you’ll have fishing 😎
Great video Grant!! What a day. loved your Chorizo video because your kitchen was epic. Do some catch and cook videos in that awesome Kitchen!! you will kill the views!! See you in October hopefully!!
My favorite spot also, I think you beat me there thurs the 18th, so I went to the other side of the bridge where the boats can't really get too, and was chasing bull reds!
@southtexasoutdoor5484 shhh, yeah water was dirty back there, but lost at least 25inch trout , caught two flounder they were all over the banks and then the bull reds, I released all the fish caught!
Where is the spot? I can't figure it out.
I just found your channel, great vid! What kayak and electric motor are you using?
@@lilj71-h7g thank you 🙏🏻 Hobie Outback and a torqeedo 403
i live in rockport and cant seem to catch fish but i am from oklahoma so this kayak fishing is new to me and i dont have a clue where to go i just paddle around asnd catch hard heads sucks so any pointers of what to use and where to go i use dead shrimp and been trying live croaker but no luck thank you for the awsome video
I catch 99% of the fish I land on artificial soft plastic lures. Dead shrimp is good when you can locate and throw into some areas where black drum or redfish are holding. But yeah, otherwise you’re gonna have a hard time avoiding the junk fish. 2.5” - 3.5” paddletail lures are very effective for me. Dependent on water clarity, or lack thereof, you’ll need to use different colors. Dark water, stick with darker lures or even chartreuse and Pearl white. Clear water, go as natural as possible - meaning don’t deviate too much from the color of bait you are seeing in the water. Redfish and trout alike will go after a natural mullet color almost always, but there are a lot of great (off the wall) colors that don’t mimic any baitfish native to these waters that work as well. If you have Instagram, send me a message there and I can help you further. Username there is

Great video! What brand was your rod and reel?
Thank ya! That was a Cajun Coastal paired with a Daiwa Regal 2500
I am new to kayak fishing, but have boat fished all over CC and Port A..where do you launch your kayak in those areas? I am rigging up a Ascend 133T with a trailer for hauling it to that area. Any info you could share would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Sure no problem. Do you have Instagram? You can look me up and message me there I’ll help ya out
what type of phone mount is that. its pretty handy! great catches
Amazon - search for
Lamicall Phone Holder Bed Gooseneck Mount
It’s on sale rn as well!
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 thank you so much! just ordered
@@hookedbykali you betcha!
Bad ass
Description says COPANO BAY but you're big red (best sound) looks like you're just outside of Swan Lake in Port Bay
Big red best sound? Swan lake is just off copano bay
How do I get out to this spot from CC Texas
Open google maps and look up “Swan lake, Tx”. There’s a kayak launch north east of the actual lake.
So sorry. I meant south east!
Thank you so much
@@garyvalenzuela2868 you betcha
What kind ( brand and model ) of Paddletails were you using? Thanks!
I make them
Was that in Robstown you were filling up?
Indeed
😅, I’m from Alice. The golden chik and Happy Donuts was the give away.
@@Reeferjay86 cool man. So am I
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 hell yeah brother 😎
How far is it from the parking lot to the launch? Been looking to launch there but not sure if I can get my kayak all the way to the water by myself
It’s exactly 65 yards
It’s not a forgiving ground if you plan on dragging your kayak (hard packed clay/dirt) but if you have a dolly it’s not bad at all.
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 got it, thank you!
@@markthompson5283 anytime!
What did you use for bait?
Soft plastics
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 Is there a particular kind? New to this
@@Cleaningmotivation-c1f I mostly use a 3” paddle tail. I’d you have Instagram, look me up there. I post most of the lures I make and catch fish with. Also sell them 🙂

Where’s this if you don’t mind
Swan lake
@@southtexasoutdoor5484 I need to get dien there! It’s on my list. Been to port bay a few times

@@southtexasoutdoor5484 nice, I've wanted to yak fish out there for a long time but never seem to have the time between booked charters etc when in town. Moving to the area finally in a few months. Maybe I ll see y'all on the water sometime.
