Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 13:56 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

    Proximity:

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

Tide Coefficient at 05:14 pm is 107
For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

Fishing Overview Victoria

Victoria, Texas fishing is all about leveraging its strategic location between the middle Texas coast and productive inland rivers. Most anglers use Victoria as a hub, fishing the Guadalupe and San Antonio Rivers close to town, or trailering 45–60 minutes to Port O’Connor, Seadrift, and San Antonio Bay for saltwater action. This mix of inshore bays, marsh drains, and river holes means something is biting nearly every month of the year.

Seasonal patterns are key. From late fall through early spring, speckled trout and redfish stack in deeper bay channels, ICW edges, and warming mud flats near Port O’Connor and Seadrift. Wade anglers do well on sunny afternoons over dark bottom with soft plastics and slow-suspening twitchbaits. Spring ushers in schooling trout on shell reefs across San Antonio and Espiritu Santo bays, while redfish roam shorelines and backlakes; drifting reefs with paddle-tail plastics under popping corks is a go-to pattern.

Summer around Victoria brings strong coastal variety. Early and late, work shallow grass and sand pockets for tailing redfish with topwaters and weedless spoons. By mid-morning, slide deeper to reef edges, channel breaks, and jetties for trout, black drum, and sheepshead. Free-lined live shrimp, croaker, or soft plastics on 1/8–1/4 oz jigheads produce consistently. Calm summer mornings also open up nearshore and occasional offshore runs from Port O’Connor for king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, cobia, and red snapper when conditions allow.

In freshwater near Victoria, the Guadalupe River, local ponds, and small lakes offer steady action. Spring pre-spawn and spawn are prime for largemouth bass around laydowns, rock transitions, and outside bends. Use Texas-rigged worms, jigs, and squarebill crankbaits to pick apart current breaks and submerged timber. Summer pushes bass tight to shade and deeper holes; focus on undercut banks, bridge pilings, and deeper bends with Carolina rigs, big worms, or small swimbaits.

Catfish and panfish provide reliable year-round fishing for local anglers. Channel and blue catfish concentrate below riffles, in deep bends, and around logjams. Stink bait, cut shad, and punch baits on slip rigs or simple bottom rigs excel. For family-friendly action, target bluegill and redear sunfish with small pieces of worm or crickets under a float around brush, docks, and gentle current seams.

Tactical tips for the Victoria area start with reading water and wind. On the coast, use the prevailing southeast breeze by setting drifts across shell, grasslines, or drain mouths, adjusting drift socks and trolling motors to keep lures in the strike zone. Light to medium spinning or baitcasting tackle with 10–20 lb braid and fluorocarbon leaders covers most inshore situations. In rivers, scale down line for clearer water and finesse presentations, but upsize leaders around heavy timber and rock. Always pay attention to tide tables near Port O’Connor and Seadrift, and to river levels on the Guadalupe; moving water nearly always improves the bite.

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 5 beaches and bays in this area.
