The shark season is coming to an end but the red run is just beginning! The recent rain and wind is making some days tough, but if we can get out there, we are making it count! Soon it will be fall and that's one of our favorite times to fish.

Fishing in the Freeport/West Galveston Bay area has been great! Redfish and flounder can be caught along the grass lines with live shrimp and a popping cork. Trout have been good along the guts and sand flats using artificial and live bait

    Out guide, Kevin, did an excellent job, and I would highly recommend him. There were four of us in our group including 2 experienced anglers, one semi experienced, and one who was very inexperienced. Kevin did a great job keeping everyone involved, baited, and altered approaches based on skill level. He worked very hard to put us on fish. He even cleaned our fish at the end of the trip. Again, I would higly recommend.
