Well to keep with the current trend, we had a strong cold front arrive, bringing strong North winds, and dipping water temperatures into the upper 40’s. By Saturday, the wind had switched back out of the East and as the day progressed, moved out of the South at 10 to 15mph. The morning air temperature started out at 41 degrees and was in the low 60’s around lunch time.

Well to keep with the current trend, we had a strong cold front arrive, bringing strong North winds, and dipping water temperatures into the upper 40’s. By Saturday, the wind had switched back out of the East and as the day progressed, moved out of the South at 10 to 15mph. The morning air temperature started out at 41 degrees and was in the low 60’s around lunch time. The water was heavily stained in East Bay, and the wind did help keep the mosquito activity down a little less than what we have been encountering lately, but still need to spray yourself down with my recommended choice of Marshland Inspect Repellent, made here in the great state of Texas. Fished several areas, on an outgoing tide, where catching has been good of late, but found very few bites till late morning. As the day developed, the water began to heat up, bites increased, but the fish were very spread out. Most bites came on a ¼ oz jig head and plum/chartreuse tails, fished very slowly, as the fish were positioned in the deeper channels and bites were very light.
If the current trend continues, about 2 to 3 days after the front passes, the fishing normally peaks, so hit me up if you want to get on the water and do some fishing.

Reported 3 years ago
The weather is a big factor the last few weeks, to windy, to much run off from rain. Now the tornado and high winds slow fishing down. I did go one day for redfish in the back water using live bait. Best bet is to fish the North Galveston Jetties fishing by the boat cut using live bait. This time of the year is always slow. But it is time to book for Spring Break.

Fishing has been great. We've been using love shrimp, soft plastics and corky's. We've been focusing on drains and edges of flats adjacent to deeper water.

    We had a fantastic trip with Scott as our guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable of the water we fished and he put us on some nice fish, then fileted our catch for us to have cooked at a local restaurant. We'll definitely be repeat customers and recommend Scott to family and friends!

    We had a productive day on the water with Captain Mike. He was patient with us bass fishermen and taught us some new techniques that really put us on a lot of good trout. Mike clearly knows the waters well and efficiently took us to a few different types of spots to try different methods for different fish. We’ll definitely connect with Captain Mike on our next Galveston trip.

    Scott was a great captain and an amazing person. He called before we ever met and put me at ease. Day of trip we had to reschedule due to weather and he was super accommodating. Took us to a great spot and got on some big fish! I would recommend this guy to my own daughter and trust he would get her home safe. 10/10 👍
