We just got back from a week on the lake, and was in Padre as well. Fishing was tougher than I had hoped for. The stripers were boiling, but they only stayed up for a minute or two. Everyone in our group at least got a few on top water. In between boils we also trolled cranks for the occasional hookup. Stripers were 16-18” and 22-24” and healthy. Great trip barring the insane amount of wake boats and it was hot- we expected both. Limited our fishing to 6:00 am-10:00.
