Just 1 1/2 hour south is Port Aransas. 24 miles from downtown Corpus Christi. It is a sleepy fishing town that can cover all your wants and needs as an angler. It is nested on the north end of Mustang Island. The flats are high producers all year long. This little town has four community Piers that are always productive as well.
There is also the HorrusCaldwell State run pier. For some bag limmits of spec's at night, the Caldwell is the best under the lights. You will find the best time at night is from two hours befor and two hours after high tide.
The surf is realatively calm in September. and makes for a great take from the surf.
A reasent catch from The BobHall pier to the south:

Don Jeffers with a 41" beautiful Bull Red!
AND this was taken from the beach somewhere between there and Port Aransas last week.

Terry Browning of Port Aransas went fishing Saturday in the surf south of Port A. and caught this big redfish after a 20 minute fight. The fish weighed 27 1/2 pounds and was 42 1/2 inches long.
I did not receive any info on what was used to catch eather, but if I do I will add it to the post.
