Our catches in Galveston Bay have been steady. These aren't jetty trips where you drop your bait on the bottom and hope for a bite. We fish all of Galveston Bay, going to locations known to produce fish. We may not catch them all the time, but we're able to make moves, ensuring our anglers have the best chance to catch trout, reds, black drum, and sheepshead. This time of year is dependent upon the weather, but if it's not just blown completely out, we usually find some fish.

This was my third trip with Captain Izzy, and like always it was great experience and enjoyed myself immensely. He is a great Captain doing everything he can to give his clients an experience they will remember. I highly recommend him if you’re looking for a great day of fishing. He is not just a good Captain, but a great guy that’s sincere in giving his clients the best time possible. Thanks again Captain Izzy for another great day fishing. See you again soon.

We had a windy day and even so, Capt. Mike knew where to go. We limited out on Trout very quickly. While we only got to keep 1 Red we did catch several. We will go with Capt, Mike again in the future. I would rate this experience from 1 to 10 as a 15.
