If you're heading out to fish in the Gulf of Mexico along the Texas coast today, here's what you can expect:
### Tidal and Weather Conditions
Today, October 27, the tidal conditions are as follows: the high tide is at around 10:33 AM with a height of 3.28 feet, and the low tide is at 5:06 AM with a height of -0.13 feet, and again at 5:00 PM with a height of -0.07 feet.
The weather is expected to be moderate with east to northeast winds at 10 to 15 knots, and seas ranging from 3 to 5 feet. There will be scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:31 AM, and sunset will be at 6:17 PM.
### Fish Activity
Yesterday saw good activity across various spots. In Galveston Bay, speckled trout, redfish, and black drum were active. Trout were schooling up on shell flats and were caught using WAC assassins in the Texas roach color with a ⅛ ounce jig head. Redfish were feeding heavily on shrimp in shallow water, particularly around rock shorelines, and were caught using crank baits and artificial shrimp. Black drum were caught on live or dead shrimp.
In Port Aransas, redfish were on fire at the tip of the north and south jetties using shrimp, cut mullet, or menhaden. Trout were good with croaker, piggy perch, or shrimp free-lined along rocks. Silver spoons also produced good redfish at both jetties.
### Best Lures and Bait
For trout, use WAC assassins in the Texas roach color with a ⅛ ounce jig head, or try floating Corkys or Texas Customs Double D's, especially in early morning shallow water fishing. For redfish, crank baits and artificial shrimp rigged weedless are effective, as well as live or cut shrimp. Black drum can be caught using live or dead shrimp and fish bites.
### Hot Spots
- **Galveston Bay**: The east shoreline is good for redfish, flounder, and speckled trout. Spoil Island along the channel is good for speckled trout, redfish, sheepshead, and black drum.
- **Port Aransas**: The tip of the north and south jetties are hot spots for redfish and trout.
- **Baffin Bay**: Early morning shallow water fishing is successful for big trout, targeting areas where you see jumping bait and small slicks.
Keep an eye on the wind and bait movement, as these can significantly affect fish feeding times. With the full moon, check the major and minor bite times to optimize your fishing experience.
