Baytown Fishing Overview

Located where Buffalo Bayou and San Jacinto River feed into the Galveston Bay Complex, Baytown is an ideal spot for inshore species to flourish. This provides an awesome jumping-off point for bay fishing. Having plenty of bays and backwaters means there are limitless places to target inshore species including redfish, speckled trout, flounder, and sheepshead. With excellent fishing upriver from Baytown and down into the rest of the Galveston Bay Area, you can catch fish almost anywhere. With numerous nearby bays, plentiful fish, and multiple ways to hit the water you are sure to have a fishing experience like no other.

Fishing the Bay Complex Around Baytown

With nearby bays like Galveston Bay, Trinity Bay, and Burnet Bay finding fish will not be a problem. The bite kicks off every year with speckled trout in the spring while flounder come on strong from summer into fall. Bull redfish take things up a notch during their migration in the fall and provide your best shot at landing a giant. When things cool off going into winter sheepshead stack up near structure and can provide all the action you can handle.

Despite these seasons, Specks and reds can be caught here throughout the year but the odds of catching a monster are slightly lower. No matter what season it is, there is always at least one species biting in Baytown. If you are looking for a less conventional approach to bay fishing, a kayak fishing trip will let you sneak around skinny water and experience getting pulled around while fighting a bull red!

Offshore Fishing Near Baytown

Although Baytown has all the inshore action you can handle, Galveston is more well equipped for offshore fishing. A quick drive down to Galveston will get you on a charter that can take you to the vast and productive bluewaters off the Texas coast. This area is home to incredible billfish and tuna fishing that will excite anglers of all experience levels.
