Fishing is starting to heat up with the incoming cold front. The last couple of weeks fishing was good for trout and redfish using live shrimp. The upper Galveston bay is holding lots of specks and redfish using live bait fishing over shell. Now is the time to book a trip for some great fishing. The Galveston jetties still holding some nice sheep heads and some redfish. The beach fishing is good for pan fish. Overall fishing is great.

    Capt Jonathan's experience & knowledge put us on over 2 dozen bull Reds on a day made for duck hunting, with rain 🌧 bands most of the trip. But like a good Capt, Jonathan knows not to fear the wind but to instead uses it as an advantage by fishing the consealed wind blown areas where the winds push the bait to the fish. DON'T Fear the Wind and DON'T pass up a fishing trip with Capt Jonathan. God Bless and Tight Lines.

    Captain Leb was a great guide! It was my 2nd time red fishing. He gave me a lot of tips on how to fish for the red fish that were extremely helpful. We caught many red, black drum, and flounder and he filet out take homes to how we requested. I will definitely book with him again next year.

    Trip: Galveston Bay Trophy Hunt

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Charles is a phenomenal guide. He was punctual, polite, operated his boat professionally, and made us feel comfortable. He put us on the specks right away. our first cast landed a keeper spec as soon as it hit the water. we ended up with 7 keeper specs and 2 drum. we caught a 19' 8" redfish but it was just a little shy of a keeper. Captain Charles really knows where they are and puts you on them! I highly recommend Captain Charles!
