Local Species Insights: Spotted Weakfish
Spotted Weakfish thrive in South Padre Island's coastal river systems and nearshore waters, where they feed on shrimp, small crabs, and baitfish around grass beds and channel edges. These members of the drum family respond well to light tackle presentations, particularly jigging techniques that mimic their natural prey. During May, warming water temperatures trigger increased feeding activity, making this an excellent time to target these quality gamefish in Texas bay waters.
