Weekly Report (2/13-2/21/26): We are still catching good numbers of sheepshead & puppy drum on live shrimp & large black drum on cracked crab at Galveston Jetties. We are starting to see a few speckled trout and slot redfish. Best bite has been in the mornings on tidal changes.

Fishing has been fair to good on days in between fronts. Water is warming up, so fishing will only get better. Live shrimp are working in 4 to 5ft of water

    Had a great time with Captain Ryan. We limited out on speckled trout and learned some new techniques. Good teacher and patient with our inexperienced group. Would hire him again!

    Trip: Half Day Galveston Inshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    It was a windy day but Jonathan took us right to a honey-hole out of the wind. The rods and reels were ready to go and easy to use. We caught fish all day long and came home with a nice haul which Jonathan cleaned and bagged for us. He even directed us to a local restaurant that cooked up a few of our fresh filets for dinner. It was a great day from beginning to end!

    Bobby was a great captain we booked him for two days and he produced so many fish and such a great time. He knew the water as well and was a great assistant to my son in landing a huge 35 pound drum. I also got one, but I’m not talking about it.

    Trip: Freeport On Light Tackle

  • ★★★★★
    We had great communication and helpful tips with Captain Lance's team from the moment we booked. He promised our crew of six LandLubbers that we’d be catching a bunch of fish on St. Patrick’s Day … and that’s exactly what we did! Our take on the day: some sheepshead, flounder, a bonnet-head shark, and the prize catch: a 35-inch redfish! Even Captain Lance was proud of that one – “about the biggest fish you’re ever going to catch with light tackle!” Then to finish things off, he expertly cleaned our fish … and offered some great tips on how to prepare them. We’ve been eating delicious fish dinners ever since! Thanks, Captain Lance, for memories that will last a lifetime!
