CAPTAIN CHARLIE FARRELL’S
SWEET SPOT CHARTERS FISHING REPORT
JANUARY 22, 2005

Fished north of the Port…way north to Baffin Bay with Capt. Ernest Cisneros, Tight Line Charters, and friends Ernesceito and Ruben. Ruben had grown up on Baffin and had caught several double digit trout over the years. It was great to have him on board as we navigated the famous Baffin rocks. We started our first wade along a soft bottom shoreline in waist deep water. Everyone started with different bait that varied from topwater, suspending and soft plastic. While the topwater bite was non-existent TTKII Jrs and Corkies really produced. While the fishing was never fast and furious the bite was steady with the first wade yielding three fish over 25 inches that pushed the 6 pound mark. Several other stout trout were intermingled with these larger fish. We ended the day chasing tailing reds along knee deep shorelines. While several reds were seen only a few were hooked. Overall it was a great day on the water. It’s always fun to get away from your home fishing grounds and experience other areas of the Laguna Madre.

Good Fishing,

Capt. Charlie Farrell
