Corpus Christi Surf Report – April 28, 2026
🌊🏄♂️ Surf & Fishing Report – Packery Channel 🎣🌞
Swell is building throughout the day! Morning is bringing waist-high SE short-period wind swell with occasional stomach-high sets, then filling in this afternoon with chest-high+ sets (SE 4.6ft @ 7s).
Conditions are bumpy to semi-bumpy with SE winds 5–10 mph early, shifting SSE 15–20 mph this afternoon.
🌡️ Air: 82°
🌊 Water: 78°
🚩 Red flags flying — moderate to heavy rip currents in effect, with some jellies mixed in.
👉 If you get caught in a rip, stay calm—it will push you out. Signal nearby surfers or anglers if you need help… we’ve always got your back 🤙
🎣 Fishing Report:
Solid conditions around the jetties and deeper pockets—best bets are live shrimp, croaker, and artificial lures. As the swell builds, look for fish staging in calmer water behind structure.
