Galveston complex is getting ready to be red hot for fishing, Galveston jetties still holding lots of oversized redfish using cut bait on the bottom. West bay is starting to have some birds working over live shrimp, lots of sand trouts and a few specks under birds. East bay is holding lots of specks and a few redfish using live shrimp. The upper Galveston bay a few redfish and sheep heads holding around the rocks off of the channel. Water temperature is 77 degrees.

It been pretty much a red fish rodeo the last 2 weeks. High tides have pushed the red fish deep into the marsh. Live shrimp under a popping cork has bee been the best producer. However TopWater lures and paddle tail jigs have also taken there share of nice slot and upper slot fish.

The weather, wind direction, and high pressure have made trout fishing a little slow. The good news is that the temperature drop has kicked off the fall flounder migration and the bull redfish run. Should be on the same pattern for the month of October! Great time of the year to fish.

    Trip: Bay And Jetty Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    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!

    Trip: Epic Jetty Trip - 23' Edgewater

  • ★★★★★
    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.
