Reported 4 months ago

Fished the west Galveston area. Bottom of the tide at dawn. Water off color, wind 13 to 15 mph. Fished some artificial reef on the north side with live shrimp and popping corks. Picked up a few large gafftop and some sandtrout. Moved down couple hundred feet. Caught some specs and a upper slot red. Got a few more specs in chocolate bay. Some black drum and sheepshead in cold pass when the tide was ripping in. Slow bite but put together a nice box of fish

★★★★★
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!

Trip: Bay/Jetty Fun! - 33'
★★★★★
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 👍
