11/27/2024 Black Drum, Florida Pompano, Redfish, Speckled Trout

Happy Thanksgiving. As we celebrate the bounty of the fall, the weather is turning colder. The response by mother nature is to add a layer of fat. So the bite is on fire, the places are deeper holes and channel edges with decent flow. My favorite baits this time of year are soft plastics on a jighead or shrimp on a jighead. We have plenty of dates available, if weather permits red snapper are in fairly close.

Our catches in Galveston Bay have been steady. These aren't jetty trips where you drop your bait on the bottom and hope for a bite. We fish all of Galveston Bay, going to locations known to produce fish. We may not catch them all the time, but we're able to make moves, ensuring our anglers have the best chance to catch trout, reds, black drum, and sheepshead. This time of year is dependent upon the weather, but if it's not just blown completely out, we usually find some fish.

Nearshore and inshore fishing has been on fire. We have been seeing some big schools of redfish moving through our waters. Snook are cruising the rocks in the jetties. Nearshore fishing has been fun. Gag groupers, lane snappers, mangroves and muttons too! Super fun on light tackle!
