Seasonal Program
Spring (Feb - May)
- Spring patterns are always dictated by runoff from both
Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend lakes.
- Depending on the lake's salinity, expect to drift over oyster
reefs on the south end of the lake with soft plastics,
hit the bayous with ultralight tackle for flounder, or
work the passes with live bait for large speckled trout.
- Wade fishing the flats can also yield the largest
trout of the year.
Summer (June - Aug)
- The entire lake heats up as both trout and redfish work
over massive schools of shad.
Top water action is usually terrific. Fishing slicks in
open water provides exciting action.
- Drifting shad under popping corks is also a consistent
ticket for big trout and redfish.
- Early morning wade fishing is super.
Fall (Sept - Dec)
- These are the magical months for Sabine Lake. Birds work over
surfacing schools of specks and reds.
- Flounder begin their migration out of the bayous, exiting through
the main lake passes.
- Top water and live bait fishing are both excellent
options for large stringers at this time of year.
- Redfish and striped bass action in the river is phenomenal
well into the initial freezes of winter.
- Put on your waders for afternoon topwater action.
