Kids are schooling but so are the fish!
With the late Summer patterns the fish are schooling on deep structure in 8 to 12 ft of water! Our main tactics have been using a popping cork with 3 foot of 40lb leader, split shot and a #4 treble hook with
a live shrimp hooked in the tail. We've had multiple outings where our shrimp has been attacked within the first 10 seconds of hitting the water! The fast and furious action will continue on this deep structure for the entire month of September and in to the first week of October. In the previous years, once we get the first cool snap of the year the fish will migrate from this deep structure to mouth's of bayou's, drains and rivers to ambush shrimp, shad, mullet and glass minnows being flushed from the shallows. Just because the kids are back to school doesn't mean you can't come out at and have fishing trip of a lifetime. Get your trip booked and let's go make some memories! Tight lines

Fishing in the Freeport/West Galveston Bay area has been great! Redfish and flounder can be caught along the grass lines with live shrimp and a popping cork. Trout have been good along the guts and sand flats using artificial and live bait

The fishing has been good. Catching lots of nice trout on finger mullet in the bays. Early morning top water bite has been excellent for big redfish and trout. Flounder gigging trips have also had good success.

    We had a windy day and even so, Capt. Mike knew where to go. We limited out on Trout very quickly. While we only got to keep 1 Red we did catch several. We will go with Capt, Mike again in the future. I would rate this experience from 1 to 10 as a 15.

    Trip: BAY TRIP! Light Tackle Only

  • ★★★★★
    We had an absolutely outstanding trip this past Saturday fishing in Matagorda. I took my four sons, and our captain could not have done a better job. From start to finish, he was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure the boys had a great experience. He knew where to go, worked hard to put us on fish, and made the whole day easy and enjoyable. What stood out most to me was how well he treated my sons. He was patient with them, coached them, encouraged them, and made sure each of them felt included. That means a lot to a dad. The boat was clean, the gear was ready, and everything was handled with confidence and care. It was clear we were with someone who knows Matagorda waters and takes pride in giving people a great day on the water. I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are looking for a great captain, especially for a family trip, this is the guy. We made some great memories, and my boys are still talking about it. We will definitely be back.

    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.
