The last few weeks fishing for trout is good, redfish is slow. Pan fish is fair. Lots of trout using live bait at the wells and A1 lease in Galveston Bay. The jetties holding lots of sharks using dead bait on the bottom. Need to fish early or late because of the heat. Stay safe. Be sure to drink lots of water. Captain Mike

On our most recent trip we decided to target slot redfish specifically. They bite turned on about half way through the trip and the action was a blast.

The last couple weeks have been pretty productive despite the heat. Lots of big trout can still be found when the winds die down to fish the open bay. The rest of August looks very good and the fishing should continue to get better as we get some rain.

As we move thru
August and into September the over sized Red drum (Bull Reds) will start showing in the channel and surf. Have to get out early and get it done.

    We enjoyed the fishing trip with Ralph. He tried really hard to get us to where the fish were biting.

    We had a great fishing trip with Ryan in the Intracoastal near the San Bernard River. Caught 8 keepers but had lots of action that we caught and released. Very knowledgeable. Our grandson had a ball!

    Trip: Freeport Bay Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Ralph was awesome with us. Making sure we on the fish the whole time. Easily we all caught 15-20 fish a piece. Three big reds were caught along with tons of sand trout. We also all caught 30 or so gafftop catfish as well.

    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.

    Shawn did a great job. None of us had been tarpon fishing before. We saw several schools and ended up catching 2 nice ones between 110 and 140 lbs. I would fish with Shawn again.
