Fishing in the Freeport/ Galveston area is heating up. Popping cork and live shrimp has been effective near and over shell reefs. Knocker rigs against piers and bulkhead producing big sheepheads.

Not a bad week, it was windy but that's about all. Morning and afternoon bites are decent. Seeing lots of fish activity in west Galveston bay. Sharks and stingrays are back so be mindful of them. Fish are eating on live or dead shrimp and smaller paddle tails and jerk...

Slow but bringing a few fish over the rail! A few reds, gulf trout, sheepshead and pup drum in the bay and Galveston Jetty-Channel area on live shrimp. And a few flounder still hanging around

The redfish run came later this year and didn't last as long as we usually get BUT while it lasted we brought some monsters over the rail! Here are some pics of trophy reds we reeled in these last few weeks....

    Had a great time with Captain Ryan. We limited out on speckled trout and learned some new techniques. Good teacher and patient with our inexperienced group. Would hire him again!

    Jay made our fishing trip by far the best guided experience I have ever been on. We will for sure be booking another trip with him. If you are looking book a guided bay trip, I would recommend anyone to book with Jay.

    Trip: Fishing Surfside/Freeport Bays

  • ★★★★★
    Bobby was a great captain we booked him for two days and he produced so many fish and such a great time. He knew the water as well and was a great assistant to my son in landing a huge 35 pound drum. I also got one, but I’m not talking about it.

    Trip: Freeport On Light Tackle

  • ★★★★★
    We had great communication and helpful tips with Captain Lance's team from the moment we booked. He promised our crew of six LandLubbers that we’d be catching a bunch of fish on St. Patrick’s Day … and that’s exactly what we did! Our take on the day: some sheepshead, flounder, a bonnet-head shark, and the prize catch: a 35-inch redfish! Even Captain Lance was proud of that one – “about the biggest fish you’re ever going to catch with light tackle!” Then to finish things off, he expertly cleaned our fish … and offered some great tips on how to prepare them. We’ve been eating delicious fish dinners ever since! Thanks, Captain Lance, for memories that will last a lifetime!

    Trip: BAY TRIP! Light Tackle Only

    Great trip with Capt. Michael! He put us on the fish: 7 speckled trout and 5 black drum in our 4-hour trip. Despite varying weather—we had clouds, sunshine, heavy fog and even a bit of rain—we went home with a nice catch thanks to his knowledge and skill. Highly recommend!!

    Trip: Freeport Fowl Hunts

  • ★★★★★
    Capt. Tim put us on fish right off the bat. The boat was a great rig. The cold front had slowed things down a little bit this guy just wouldn’t give up. We will definitely look him up next chance we get. Tim is your guy if you’re considering a gigging trip.
