Fishing Port Mansfield In Search of Giants

First trip back to Port Mansfield in years for me and I was on the hunt for some gator trout. Had a blast fishing with Shane and Capt. Kiko and others as we wade the cold waters of Port Mansfield to see what we could get into. Thanks again for watching I hope you enjoy!!

Been using PBO Hook and Bullet and love them. Great pair of sunglasses. What day was that video.

[@texaswadefisherman]

Same here some of the best optics I have worn so far and highly recommend them to anyone!! So this trip was on the 12th of January which was a Sunday.

@@texaswadefisherman Cool we fished on Saturday 1/11/2025 and water temp was at 47-48 and we sucked that day. We got skunked but still had a great day. Thanks for sharing.

[@texaswadefisherman]

Oh dang that sucks but like you were saying any time on the water is a great time. Yea the water temp was cold for sure. I’ll be down there in two weeks Monday thru Thursday so I’m hoping for some redemption on the trout…but we will see lol. Yes sir anytime brotha.

[@JWSFishingTexas]

[@texaswadefisherman]

Thanks brotha!! 🤔 yea as a matter of fact…I’m going down there with this guy names Jody Wayne 😂🤣 can’t wait 😬
