Did you know Sabine Lake has three times as much feeder marsh as the entire Galveston Bay complex? Did you know limit catches of Speckled Trout are common on Sabine Lake now that the gill nets are out? Did you know that massive pods of Slot Reds school daily during season on our lake?

   If you are like most folks, you haven't heard much about fishing the Sabine ecosystem. This huge, shallow lake is quickly becoming the lake of choice for savvy salts across the state. Why? Because population dynamics of Reds, Specks, and Flounders are incredible.

  Unlike Houston's backyard playground, Galveston Bay, Sabine Lake receives little intelligent fishing pressure. Truly off the beaten path, this sprawling, thirty mile long bay, borders Texas and Louisiana near IH-10. Recently the commercial gill nets were banned!  This forgotten bay is now chocked full of Specks, Reds and Flounders.   According to Coastal Fishery managers for Texas Parks & Wildlife, recent studies indicate Sabine Lake has more fish per acre than any other bay system in Texas.   If saltwater fishing is your sport, you owe it to yourself to escape and enjoy a SABINE LAKE ADVENTURE!

  Skip with his telemetry equipment finding the fish.For the last several years, I've been fortunate to head up a telemetry study on Paralichthys lethostigma, the Southern Flounder, in Sabine. After countless hours tagging fish, studying territorial bondage, and predator/prey relationship, I'm convinced our fishery is as good as any on the coast! But, don't take my word for it, prove it to yourself. Call any of my customers and ask them how the fishing is on Sabine Lake.
