Event: East Matagorda Bay – 3 Mile Lake area
Trip Description: Kayak fishing for redfish, speckled trout, and sheephead. If you do not have a kayak, wading in the lakes can be very productive at times. 4X4’s are usually a must for beach driving and crossing into the cut. Once you get off the beach past the dunes, driving is usually okay. A permit is required for beach driving and you can get one at Stanley’s for about 10 or 12 bucks.
When: June 15, 2019
High wiends make it unsafe for a kayak, so the event is cancelled.
