  • In this episode of Texas Fishing Travels, I team up with Daniel Guillette to explore the mysterious and awe defining Baffin Bay. So many large speckled trout have been caught in this legendary bay. What makes this bay so unique? That is one question I want to answer by coming and exploring this South Texas gem. Not only was I able to take in the magnificent beauty, I was able to enjoy some fine dining that Kingsville, TX has to offer.
    I will be back!

    Someone hit the Castilian translator pretty hard... In that area it's country Spanish... just like someone from New York won't have the same dialect as a Texan. In that Country they're names mean...
    Alazan - Sorrel,same color just like alot of the bloodlines the King Ranch uses in their horses
    Grullo - AKA Blue dun, Mouse dun or Grey dun colored horse with dark dorsal or leg stripes. Also roughly translate to Rough or uncouth, which that finger of Baffin can get when the wind really rips out the SE and blows right up the middle of it... Mustangs which used to roam that area were multi colored but Grullo was a dominant color. The whole area used to be called "The Wild Horse Desert"
    Salada - Down there it means "Salty"...
