A very common misconception among coastal anglers is that trout and red fish go deep in the winter and the only way to catch them is to fish deep. They do, indeed, seek the warmth of deep channels during the coldest of times but believe me when I tell you they will be back on the flats as soon as the sun shines. January has been the best big trout month for me. The average high temperature for Rockport in January is 64 degrees. That means plenty of warm sunny days. In the past two years my clients have landed 14 trout between 25″ and 31″in January. Most of these were taken by sight casting.

Because the actual sound waves have to bounce back to you, there is a bit of a lag for this to happen. So that is why you must always be remaining alert when using them for navigation.
