Captain Cody Maddox's Fishing Reports

09/30/08 Fishing Report
 
 
Fall has started off with a bang!!!! We have been catching limits to near limits of trout to 29 inches in the Matagorda Bay complex with a few redfish mixed in. Corky's have been the ticket for us wading the shorelines in knee to waist deep water over grass pockets. The topwater bite for me has been fair to say the least, but I can still catch a few. Big trout have started to show up and we are catching them on a regular basis. The fall east winds and equinox have made the tides really high and the fish are all over the shorelines.
 
 I have been since the tides went out and it was a little tougher to get the limits but we are still gettin 'em with a little work. I expect more high tides in the coming weeks and the fish will pull back up on the flats. With every front that approaches the fishing will get better. I have some openings left for October and I expect some huge trout to come to hand in the next few months. Don't miss out on the action!!!! Forgot my camera on a few trips but here are a few pics.
 
 I want to send out our thoughts and prayers to the Hurricane Ike victims and hope for speedy recovery.

Fishing has been weird to say the least. Southwest winds have really made it tough to catch fish on a consistent basis. We are having some excellent days mixed in with very poor days. Fall is slowly creeping up and we are seeing some nice trout coming of the shorelines in knee deep water. Redfish are also pulling up on the flats hammering down on big schools of mullet shooting out of the water everywhere. When the winds have been light we are having some excellent topwater action early in the day. I am catching better fish in the middle of the day on topwaters in waist deep to knee deep water on chrome she dogs. The next couple of months should get a lot better if we don't get any of these crazy hurricanes coming through here.
