Deer Park, Texas
Reported: 2 years ago

The weather is a big factor the last few weeks, to windy, to much run off from rain. Now the tornado and high winds slow fishing down. I did go one day for redfish in the back water using live bait. Best bet is to fish the North Galveston Jetties...

The weather is a big factor the last few weeks, to windy, to much run off from rain. Now the tornado and high winds slow fishing down. I did go one day for redfish in the back water using live bait. Best bet is to fish the North Galveston Jetties fishing by the boat cut using live bait. This time of the year is always slow. But it is time to book for Spring Break. Use Captain Experience to book a trip of a lifetime with your kids. There is a lot of fun for kids on the Galveston Island. Stay warm and safe. Captain Mike

Fishing has been great. We've been using love shrimp, soft plastics and corky's. We've been focusing on drains and edges of flats adjacent to deeper water.

    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.
