We've been running back to Glades for Snook when the wind allows us to. Voodoo shrimp and DOA have been money. It's been hit or miss around downtown Islamorada on Permit and Tarpon. In the next few weeks, it should be getting good.

Fishing has been great in the Galveston complex—redfish and trout in the back bays. It's been very windy here. But still catching fish in the backwaters to book a trip call Captain Experience.

5 stars!! He was awesome and really tried to get on some fish. We learned so much and he answered all out questions and even non-fishing questions.about the area, history of Galveston, area attractions etc. He was amazing and we are so thankful we had this experience with Captain Shannon.

Trip: Galveston Jetty Roundup
★★★★★
Overall today was just to hot of a day. We saw a lot of birds and David done everything above and beyond to get us on birds but the birds just weren’t cooperating. But definitely a good time. David did give us a rescheduled hunt and maybe the cold weather and birds will move in. David is definitely the best guided service we have been to and we will definitely be rebooking in the future

Had a great day on the water. Captain Mike was very friendly and knowledgeable. Consistently had us on fish. Limited out on trout in the first hour, and ended up catching a trophy drum. Definitely recommend mike to guide your next fishing adventure.
