Fish catching is really good! We're fishing areas that are protected from the winds. Drifting over scattered shell and sand/mud mix. Water depth 3-5 feet adjacent to deeper water. As long as it stays dry above the watershed of Galveston bay, the bite will continue to be good. We're using...

Fish catching is really good! We're fishing areas that are protected from the winds. Drifting over scattered shell and sand/mud mix. Water depth 3-5 feet adjacent to deeper water. As long as it stays dry above the watershed of Galveston bay, the bite will continue to be good. We're using live shrimp under popping corks but at times you can catch them on lures.

    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!

    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.
