Howdy y’all, this is Artificial Lure bringing you your Gulf of Mexico Texas fishing report for Wednesday, September 10, 2025. If you’re prepping your gear or sipping that first cup of coffee in Port Aransas, Corpus, or South Padre, here’s what’s happening on the briny this morning.
We kicked off the day with a sunrise at 7:12 AM and you’ll get that last shot at a bite at sunset around 7:38 PM, so you’ve got a nice long window with over 12 hours of daylight. Tidal movement is solid today—look for an early high tide around 4:30 AM and low tide at 10:59 AM on the Corpus coast, then another high tide peaking near 6:45 PM. These changes are setting up some decent current, so be ready for that bite to switch on, especially a couple hours after the high and low swings according to Tide-Forecast.com.
Weather’s cooperating with mostly mild temps, light southeast breezes, and partly cloudy conditions. Water clarity has held out pretty decent even after some pop-up showers earlier in the week. Down around Sargent and the mid-coast, that big tidal coefficient’s pushing strong current, really stirring up the baitfish and making the game fish lively as reported by Tides4Fishing.
Angler action’s been steady. According to Texas Fishing Tips, redfish are schooling heavy in Aransas and Mesquite Bays, up shallow in the early hours before spreading to the guts and drop-offs as the sun climbs. Solid numbers of slot reds are getting boxed, and the topwater bite at first light is still hot—try a bone Super Spook or Skitter Walk for explosive strikes. Over grass and shallows, soft plastics in bright white or new penny are working well.
Speckled trout have been holding to deeper grass edges near the ICW, early-morning live shrimp under a popping cork’s still king but plenty getting fooled by white/chartreuse paddletails and root beer soft plastics. Down by South Padre, Today We Fish Charter and Adventures reports good trout action and solid redfish—bottom fishing with live finger mullet or popping cork rigs with shrimp are both producing consistently.
Other notables: Spanish mackerel have started showing off the jetties and surf on shinier spoons like the old trusty silver Kastmasters. Flounder numbers are ticking up in the marsh drains and mouths of bayous with mud minnows or small white curly tails on jig heads.
If you’re headed to the water, two local hot spots to consider:
- The east flats in Aransas Bay at sunrise—redfish pushing wakes and specks popping shrimp.
- The surf at Padre Island National Seashore—especially at the first and second cuts on a falling tide, where you’ll get a shot at trout, reds, and some big ladyfish for bonus action.
Best baits right now:
- Live shrimp and finger mullet for reds, trout, and the odd snook around structure.
- Bone or chrome topwaters in low light.
- White or chartreuse soft plastics on a 1/8 ounce jig head for bay trout and reds.
Spots like Packery Channel and Estes Flats have also been holding feeding fish, especially as the winds drop into the evening.
That’ll do it for today’s report. Thanks for tuning in—y’all be safe out there, mind the tides, and don’t forget to bring some bug spray for those dawn and dusk sessions. Make sure to subscribe for your local fishing updates.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
