Triple Tail are normally pretty rare to find in Galveston Bay. However, after setting apart a day to chase the elusive fish we managed to find a giant! The fish tipped the scales at 25lbs. It was by far the biggest one I have ever seen. Congrats to my customer...

Trout is what's for dinner. These boys put a whopping on a nice limit and drank just as manny beers.

Got to fish a fun tournament with some of my good clients. Thankfully the weather cooperated and we were able to sweep the board winning biggest trout, flounder and redfish. The fishing is still hot!

Big trout and even bigger smiles. The bite was early and on fire. We were able to haul in a four person limit of trout in less than an hour. My group had a blast on the water and took home some delicious fish.

What's Biting in Galveston

We enjoyed the fishing trip with Ralph. He tried really hard to get us to where the fish were biting.

Trip: Galveston Inshore Trip
★★★★★
First time fishing with Captain Jay and what a great trip! Probably the most fish I have ever caught on a single trip. He was extremely knowledgeable and a blast to fish with. Fished under birds and caught back to back Trout all morning that were just undersized. Jay knew we wanted keepers so we kept fishing till we got on a sand Trout honey hole. Captain Jay was kind enough to extend our trip so we could keep filling the ice chest. Thank you Cap! Look forward to our next trip with you.
