John with a nice Rockport, TX trout on the fly.
Before we get to your mid-November Fly Fishing Rockport Texas report… Jim Ferguson, if you read this, you provided me the wrong email address. Get back in touch and I will be happy to return your message.
Anyway, fly fishing in Rockport has been pretty good lately. We still have some pretty high water, although after a few storms from the North, it has blown a little of the water out. But not much. We are still seeing plenty of reds pushed way into the grass throughout the day. Again, this has made for some very fun fishing.
The trout fishing has been very good in the mornings. They have been holding in their usual haunts and very willing to eat a fly. Depending on the day, we are having pretty solid success with topwater flies as well. It’s always kinda fun seeing them come up and crush your fly on the surface. But this has been primarily a morning and evening game.
We have had a couple of storm fronts push through lately. This has goofed up the fishing a little bit, but not bad. Just a few less fish in shallow for part of the day and some really frustrating wind conditions. Looking forward to a break in the “W”. It allows us far better opportunities of some of these spooky fish in shallow.
We should be experiencing these higher tides for another few weeks. This will continue to allow these fish to move up into the grass and chase the bait. As we move further towards winter, you can expect some of this high water to recede and our winter holds to be more common. If you are interested in fly fishing Rockport Texas, contact us and we can get you set up.
