The last few weeks fishing for trout is good, redfish is slow. Pan fish is fair. Lots of trout using live bait at the wells and A1 lease in Galveston Bay. The jetties holding lots of sharks using dead bait on the bottom. Need to fish early or late because of the heat. Stay safe. Be sure to drink lots of water. Captain Mike

On our most recent trip we decided to target slot redfish specifically. They bite turned on about half way through the trip and the action was a blast.

The last couple weeks have been pretty productive despite the heat. Lots of big trout can still be found when the winds die down to fish the open bay. The rest of August looks very good and the fishing should continue to get better as we get some rain.

August and into September the over sized Red drum (Bull Reds) will start showing in the channel and surf. Have to get out early and get it done.

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.

    Ralph was awesome with us. Making sure we on the fish the whole time. Easily we all caught 15-20 fish a piece. Three big reds were caught along with tons of sand trout. We also all caught 30 or so gafftop catfish as well.
