Easy watch this morning – H E B Our Texas Our Future: Redfish Revival looks at the Texas Gulf Coast redfish and what makes it so great.
Fly fishing in the Texas Hill Country, the Lower Laguna Madre, or your own back yard and beyond? Texas is a huge State, but you’re in the right place. Are you just learning how to fly fish, and Texas is your home? You’re still in the right place! Texas Fly Caster is a multi-sectioned old school newspaper thinly disguised as a website. We started our public journey sixteen years ago! We’re still going strong. Not only will you learn fly fishing fundamentals here, we can all learn from you as well. Even the smallest of fly fishing tips can make a huge difference in everyone’s success, especially with the challenges of fly fishing in Texas. When I say, “we?” That friends, is you and me.
FLASHBACK VIDEO to 2017! How about that good old drone video!!!
It didn’t take long for me to realize that many of the people who fly fish Texas also have other common interests. I look at fly fishing culture through a wide angle lens, and down to a macro perspective. The wide view? It includes just about anything and nearly everything. The macro view? Beer, food, wellness, art, travel and music seem to be the evenly mixed constant themes. In 2008, inspired by the greatest depression (so far), I sub dubbed this site,”Fly Fishing Culture on the Skids,” and in 2023, Texas Fly Caster still claims that ground, and so much more as well. We’re looking forward with new themes for the rest of the 2020’s, most important being “The Wholistic Fly Fisher ©,” a way of being for those of us who never want to stop fly fishing. Then, there will be the sidebar adventures thanks to the 1970 Airstream Safari rebuild that will be done soon. Where will it go? Subscribe, and ride along!
Fall weather patterns are pretty paisley right now. Sometimes you get rotation and sometimes you don’t. Time to pattern grass carp.

“I was out casting on the flats on Friday and was getting frustrated with my line, thinking surely there is a better way…and found your website. The solution is in Texas it seems! Exactly what I’m looking for! Genius.” – Simon Bendall New Zealand
