May has been a challenging month for fishing due to a lot of windy days, but we have still managed to reel in some great catches.
Blacktip sharks have been particularly active, with many being caught near the shore and around jetties. These sharks are known for their acrobatic jumps
and fighting spirit, making them a popular target for sport fishermen.
Redfish have also been biting well in May, especially in the early morning and late afternoon. These fish are known for their hard fight and delicious taste, making them a popular catch. We have had success using mullet, shad and blue crabs as bait.
Gafftop sail catfish have been another common catch in May, especially in the shallow flats and at the jetties. While not as prized as redfish or sharks, gafftops can still provide plenty of fun for anglers and are known for their strong runs and head-shaking fights.
Finally, black drum have also been biting well in May, especially around oyster reefs and other structure. These fish are bottom feeders and can be caught using crab or shrimp on a bottom rig. Black drum are known for their size and strength, with some reaching over 50 pounds in weight.
Overall, May has been a mixed bag for fishing, with some great catches of blacktip sharks, redfish, gafftop sail catfish, and black drum despite the windy conditions.

Lots of fresh run off. Fresh on top and salty on bottom. Fishing is still slow. I did managed to catch a good limited of trout before the rain came. The Galveston jetties still holding a few fish using live shrimp. West bay is a good place to fish the fresh water doesn’t hurt that bay. Next full moon the trout will be spawning always remember all fish spawn on a full moon. Thanks and good luck fishing.

Galveston bay is still putting up some nice stringers. Artificial and live shrimp have been working on the speckled trout. Live shrimp have been the ticket for redfish.

    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!
