Galveston Jetties continue to produce a good mix of sheepshead, pup drum, along with an occasional redfish on live shrimp. Best bite has been around tidal changes on calmer days. Tide levels continue to fluctuate drastically around frontal passages. Action should remain steady through March.

We are still catching a few redfish, along with pup drum and sheepshead at Galveston jetties on live shrimp. Best bite has been on outgoing tide, coinciding with favorable weather conditions between cold fronts.

    First time fishing with Captain Jay and what a great trip! Probably the most fish I have ever caught on a single trip. He was extremely knowledgeable and a blast to fish with. Fished under birds and caught back to back Trout all morning that were just undersized. Jay knew we wanted keepers so we kept fishing till we got on a sand Trout honey hole. Captain Jay was kind enough to extend our trip so we could keep filling the ice chest. Thank you Cap! Look forward to our next trip with you.

    Hey folks, I wanted to give a review for my time fishing with Captain Chris in Galveston West Bay. Fishing overall was tough due to some wicked calm conditions during the October Super Moon. Capt. Chris went above and beyond to put us on fish. He is truly a gifted guide, who balances fishing conditions and personalities together, a rare find indeed.
