Corpus Christi Surf Report – August 5, 2026
🌊 Uncle Greg’s Surf & Fishing Report 🎣
Good morning, Coastal Bend! 🤙 There’s a fun little SSE swell rolling in today with 1–2+ ft waves and a quick 5-second period. Expect some playful little corners for longboards, soft tops, SUPs, and the groms. 🏄♂️ While it’s not firing, there’s enough energy to get wet and have some fun.
💨 Winds: Strong SSE onshore winds at 13 mph are adding plenty of chop, so look for any protected areas that offer a cleaner ride.
🌊 Tides:
⬆️ High: 6:01 AM – 1.2 ft
⬇️ Low: 2:31 PM – -0.1 ft
🌡️ Air Temp: 92°F
🌊 Water Temp: 87°F
🎣 Fishing Report: The bite should remain solid today! 🎣 Target the Packery Channel jetties, Bob Hall Pier, and nearby beachfront guts with live shrimp, croaker, or cut bait for your best chance at bending a rod. 🐟
🚨 Beach Safety: Strong onshore winds can create stronger currents. Swim near a lifeguard, keep an eye on the kids, and if you get caught in a rip current, stay calm, float, and swim parallel to the beach until you’re free. 🛟
