Fishing has been excellent lately for trout, redfish, drum, and alligator gar! The cooler weather has had fish feeding very well and the red run is in full swing.

We wrapped up the 2026 Red Snapper season with a very nice box fishing over wrecks & are landing good numbers of Bull Redfish on live fin fish near jetties.

I am also seeing trout & reds under birds in upper parts of Galveston Bay Complex. Best bite has been on soft plastics the first couple of days following a frontal passage.

We should see lower water temperatures in November, which should heat up fishing over mud/shell and shoreline drains.

I had a great time fishing with Cody Philips on an inshore trip this past weekend! Cody was extremely professional, had excellent communication from start to finish, and knew exactly where to find the fish. He kept us on the fish throughout the trip, and we had a blast! You can tell he knows what he's doing and genuinely enjoys putting his clients on fish. I highly recommend Cody to anyone looking for a great inshore fishing experience. I'll definitely be booking another trip with him in the future!
