Fishing is red hot the upper end of Galveston bay. Lots of trout on live shrimp along with some redfish. West bay is a little slow because of the windy days. Galveston jetties still holding some nice sheep heads and some bull reds on live shrimp. East bay is good for trout under birds. Over all the water is around 65 degrees. After this weekend the fishing should be great. Be safe have fun.

October has been producing well this year, plenty of flounder and redfish being caught. The trout have been biting well also. With water temps dropping the fish are definitely moving and eating well.

Awesome weather has been the norm for the last few weeks. Light winds and cool temps have provided pleasant fishing conditions. The next couple of months should be excellent fishing on Galveston bay. Falling temps should trigger the shrimp to leave the marshes. This will provide good opportunities to catch fish in Galveston bay.

Fished only for flounder Saturday. Found them laying up in shallow water at the mouth of bayous , drains and channels.
The front this week should get them going even better. Its time to box Flounder before the 'Flounder Shutdown' Nov 1 - Dec 15.

`Hi Hannah,
Our October has been great so far. Redfish and flounder have been great using artificial lures and live shrimp along the grass lines, marsh drains and reefs.

Captain Lance is amazing! He knows the waters he fishes in and was very motivated for my group to catch fish and have a great time. He was not stingy with his gas either. If we weren't catching we moved until we did. And our rods always had bait, no matter what. He manages his boat like true professional.
Captain Lance is also a good man and easy to talk to. You will have a great time and catch fish.
Rodney was a great captain and we had an amazing time on our trip. Our group consisted of two individuals on the autism spectrum and my father with Alzheimer’s. He was patient, understanding and provided an amazing experience for our family! Highly recommended!
Leaf's Team put us on the fish! We got to limit on snapper, and everyone used their red drum tag. Awesome outfit all the way around! Boat was immaculate!
The trip was wonderful and Captain Richard was great and Brandon was excellent he showed us how we needed to board the boat. Once departing the dock he made sure everything was secured before leaving. Once we got to the fishing location prepared the equipment and baited the lines and handed over the equipment to fish. When we would catch a fish he would take it off the hook then measure the fish to make sure it was legal if not the fish was put back in water. When we departed the locations Brandon would make sure everything was secured before leaving back to dock. When we arrived the dock and got the boat Brandon would put the fish into a basket and handed it over to the Captain. Brandon would start his job in cleaning the whole boat front to rear and preparing it for the next charter. Once completed we talked about other charters s little, then we shook hands with Brandon and the Captain.
My son and I will be making a charter again and would like Brandon and the Captain to help us again.
My son had a short break from the Air Force and wanted to do something special. Scott absolutely nailed it for us! Great guy and great trip. Highly recommended if you are in the area.
