Trinity Bay Fishing Report
- Nov 26, 2025
- GOOD. 70 degrees. Northwest region of the bay, in Tabbs, Scott, and Burnett, are producing decent numbers of speckled trout on live shrimp. Few redfish are being caught along with black drum and starting to see better numbers of sheepshead. Report by Captain David Dillman, Galveston Bay Charter Fishing. Recent drops in water temperature and another passing front are setting up a strong fall pattern on Trinity Bay, with north winds and rain expected to freshen the bay and improve overall fish activity. Redfish action has been excellent around drains, grass lines, points, and rock lines, with catches coming on crankbaits, WACky Flukes in Peppered Pumpkin, and shallow presentations over shell in skinny water. Speckled trout are biting well over shale in shallow areas on popping corks with live or imitation shrimp, as well as soft plastics in Sparkle Chartreuse, White, and Peppered Pumpkin, and working birds continue to help pinpoint feeding schools–though trout often remain after birds move on, so keep casting and watching for mullet flipping or shrimp popping. Black drum are relating to rock and shale, especially on the slack side of the tide, with submerged offshore rocks and points producing best on live shrimp or imitation shrimp under a popping cork, and a few sheepshead are mixed in. As always, monitor the weather, wear your kill switch, and take advantage of the good clarity and salinity during this unusually warm fall. Report by Captain Zackary Scott, Zack Attack Fishing.
