  • Wintertime Rio Grande Fishing Report: Crappie, Cichlids, and Monster Gar Headline the Action
    Jan 12 2026
    Howdy, y'all, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to gal for all things fishin' down here on the Rio Grande in Texas. It's Monday, January 12th, 2026, and we're kickin' off the day at 8:35 AM with some prime winter action brewin' in these murky waters.

    Tides today around the lower Rio Grande near South Padre are lookin' solid—low around 3-4 AM at about 0.2 feet, high hittin' 2:28 PM at 1.7 feet or so, per Tide-Forecast.com predictions. Sunrise was at 7:17 AM, sunset 'round 5:40 PM, givin' us a good 10-hour window before the chill sets in. Weather's typical January—cool highs in the low 60s, light northerly breeze 5-10 mph, partly cloudy, perfect for bundlin' up and hittin' the banks.

    Fish are active in the cooler flows, with solunar charts from FishingReminder.com showin' major bites from 9-11 AM and evenin' minor feeds. Recent TPWD records from Espantosa Slough and nearby waters got Rio Grande Cichlids up to 9 inches on jigs, white crappie stretchin' 15 inches same way, and monster alligator gar at 74 inches usin' cut carp. Guadalupe River reports mirror this—flathead cats to 62 pounds on drop lines, channel cats 21 pounds, largemouth bass 12 pounds, and common carp 28 pounds rod and reel. Limits are comin' steady on crappie and cichlids, with gar and cats pilin' up for bowfishers.

    Best lures? Stick to **jigs** in natural olive, brown, or black—micro-jigs or 1/16-oz marabou under a float for crappie and cichlids, per TPWD catches. Small inline spinners for bass. Live bait shines: **cut carp** or shad chunks for gar and cats, worms or minnows for everything else. Fish the outgoing tide for best drifts.

    Hot spots: Hit the **Espantosa Slough** bends for crappie and cichlids—structure's loaded. Or try **International Bridge pilings** near Brownsville for cats and gar in the deeper holes.

    Get out there safe, check regs, and tight lines!

  • Winter Winds and Steady Bites on the Lower Rio Grande Fishing Report
    Jan 11 2026
    Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in with your Lower Rio Grande fishing report out of deep South Texas.

    We’ve got a classic winter pattern rolling across the Valley this morning. The National Weather Service Brownsville office is calling for cool, dry air and a Fire Danger Statement with north winds around 10–20 mph and gusts pushing 30, so it’s breezy and crisp on the water. Sunrise is right around 7 AM with sunset near 6 PM, giving us a short but productive window, especially at first light and that last hour before dark.

    Tide-wise along the lower coast, we’re on a modest winter tide with a softer range: a higher stage mid‑morning easing off through the afternoon, then another push after dark. Think of it as a slow inhale/exhale rather than big summer swings. That weaker movement means you’ll want to fish the *strongest* parts of each cycle: the last of the incoming and the first of the fall, when bait actually moves.

    Water temps in the bays are sitting in the upper 50s to low 60s. That’s got speckled trout and redfish laid up shallow early on dark mud and scattered shell, then sliding a bit deeper into guts and channels when that north wind stiffens. Recent reports from local guides around Port Isabel, South Bay, and the Brownsville Ship Channel have been steady on slot reds, keeper trout, and a few bonus black drum and sheepshead. Numbers haven’t been crazy, but quality’s been good: solid 18–23 inch reds, 16–20 inch trout, and drum in the 3–8 pound class on bait.

    Best baits right now:

    - For trout and reds on artificials, throw **soft plastics** in natural colors: plum with chartreuse tail, opening night, or white on 1/8 to 1/4 ounce jigheads. Work them slow, almost dragging.
    - **Slow‑sink twitch baits** and small suspending jerkbaits in bone or silver/black are money on those shallow flats as the sun warms the mud.
    - If you’re soakin’ bait, **live shrimp** under a popping cork is still king, especially along channel edges and the mouths of drains. Fresh dead shrimp on the bottom will pick up black drum and sheepshead around structure.

    Hot spots to key on:

    - **South Bay and adjacent flats**: Wade the leeward shorelines with soft plastics and suspending baits. Look for slicks and nervous mullet; work the knee‑deep mud/shell mix slow and steady.
    - **Brownsville Ship Channel edges and turning basins**: Fish the drop‑offs with live or dead shrimp on Carolina rigs for drum, sheepshead, and the occasional big red. When that north wind howls, this deeper water stays more consistent and often fishes better than the open flats.

    On the freshwater side up the Rio Grande and local resacas, the cooler water has catfish and Rio Grande cichlids hugging deeper holes and brush. Stink bait, cut shad, and nightcrawlers on the bottom will still put channel cats in the bucket. Ultralight setups with small worms or tiny jigs around laydowns are taking sunfish and the occasional Rio Grande cichlid—perfect for a quiet afternoon bend in the rod.

    Midday, with bright sun and wind, expect the bite to slow. That’s a good time to tuck into wind‑protected pockets, fish tighter to structure, and go smaller and slower with your presentations. The big moves will come at that mid‑morning high and again as the sun drops and the tide starts to creep in.

    That’s the word from down here on the border. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss the next report.

  • Lower Rio Grande Winter Bite Steady on Plastics and Live Shrimp
    Jan 10 2026
    Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in from down here on the lower Rio Grande and South Padre side, where winter’s acting more like a long cool fall and the fish are liking it.

    According to the National Weather Service Brownsville marine forecast, we’re sitting under mild Gulf conditions: light to moderate east-southeast winds, seas running 2–4 feet, and no serious fronts crashing through. That stable weather has the bay pretty calm and the bite steady most of the day, with a little bump when the wind lays near sunset.

    NOAA’s January tide table for Port Aransas, which runs similar to our lower coast timing, shows a small winter tide swing today, a weak pre‑dawn low followed by a mid‑morning rise and another gentle high in the evening. With that kind of neapish tide, you’re not getting big current, so it’s a finesse plastics day: work slow, cover water, don’t expect a big “flip the switch” feed window. Solunar tables for the mid‑coast show the stronger major period centered late morning into early afternoon, and it lines up with that incoming trickle of water.

    Sunrise on this stretch of the coast is right around 7:20 a.m. with sunset near 6:00 p.m., so you’ve got a tight low‑light window at both ends. That first hour after sunup has been the best for shallow redfish, then things slide deeper and softer until the afternoon major.

    According to the Lower Rio Grande Fishing Report from Spreaker yesterday, trout and reds have been consistent despite the mild winter, with keeper specks on shell and scattered reds cruising sand pockets and grass edges. Anglers down here have been boxing fair numbers of **speckled trout**, a mix of schoolie and some solid 18–22 inch fish, plus **slot reds** with a few upper‑slot bruisers. Scattered **black drum** and the odd **flounder** are still showing on mud‑shell where there’s a little warmth.

    Best producers have been **soft plastics** on light jigheads: 1/8 oz in clear or lightly stained water, 3/16 if you’ve got more wind. Local favorites right now are paddle‑tail and rat‑tail baits in **natural shrimp, chicken‑on‑a‑chain, and opening night** colors. Under birds or over deeper guts, a **soft plastic under a popping cork** has been out‑fishing hard baits. When the sun gets up and the water slicks off, **MirrOdine‑style suspending baits** and light‑colored **topwaters** will still draw strikes from trout holding over shell in 3–4 feet.

    For bait soakers, fresh **live shrimp** remains king, either free‑lined or under a popping cork on the channel edges; **finger mullet** and **cut mullet** are pulling reds and drum along drop‑offs and around the jetties. Peeled **dead shrimp** on the bottom is putting drum and the occasional sheepshead in the box around structure.

    Couple of hotspots to circle:

    - **South Bay and the edges of the Brownsville Ship Channel**: work the drops from 3 to 6 feet where that slight tide is sliding, bouncing plastics or shrimp on jigheads. Trout have been stacking on the ledges and reds creeping up to the skinny flats on the warmest part of the day.
    - **Port Isabel / causeway and adjacent flats**: night lights and early‑morning shadows around the pilings are holding school trout, with redfish pushing bait on the adjacent grass lines and potholes. Slow‑rolled plastics and live shrimp tight to the structure have been steady.

    Overall fish activity is **moderate but reliable**: no wild blitzes, just a classic South Texas winter pattern—slow, methodical presentations, hit the right depth, and you’ll grind out a solid box.
