As I sit at my computer, taking a break from the Texas Summer Heat – I cant help to look ahead to the coming months. I think all sportsman that enjoy the great Texas Outdoors have allot in common when it comes to ‘looking ahead’. In the winter months, I find myself enjoying the cold water…
Sunday I had return customer, Colton, his sons Christian and Trey as well and his friend Shane. Despite the full moon the past couple days, we were able to put some very nice Speckled Trout in the box. The bait of choice was live shrimp under a Cajun Thunder Popping Cork, with a few fish being caught free lining shrimp as…
I had Pete and his 12 year old son Benny for an afternoon trip yesterday. I knew going into the trip, that the bite would likely be tough because of the slack tide. The tides were very high, and very, very little current moving. The incoming tide in the morning was the time to be fishing, but sometimes you just…
We had a fair weekend of fishing. The speckled trout action for us has been a little slow. The rainstorm we had Thursday night muddied the waters which hurts the trout bite. The redfish, flounder and puppy drum action is pretty hot right now. We caught allot of redfish. Many of them under the 20″ minimum length requirement, but still a…
The weather the past few days has been almost perfect for being on Galveston Bay. Other than a fog delay Sunday, we could not ask for better weather conditions. We caught some good fish. Redfish, Black Drum, Big bull black drum, Sheepshead, and Gulf Trout were on the hook this weekend. Water clarity has cleared up from the recent rains…

Fishing on the Rocks It’s not just what you catch, but what you might encounter, that makes Texas jetty fishing such an incredible experience. By Larry Bozka In just the short time we’ve been here, the waves of the Galveston ship channel have doubled in size. The breakers are chest-high now, charging past the boat like determined soldiers only to fall headfirst…
I made a quick solo trip last night to check water clarity after the rains we have been having. The tide was EXTREMELY high. The water is in good shape though. I saw 8 flounder and stuck these 4 for supper tonight. I am anticipating a Great Galveston Bay Spring Flounder Run. There was allot of bait in the area…
We are only on the 8th day of February, but with all of the flounder we are seeing in the bays, you would think it is March! I am anticipating a great spring flounder gigging season in Galveston Bay! Book your trip today! Bring those kids out and let them experience the thrill of an evening on the water with…
What is flounder gigging? Flounder are bottom hugging fish that spend most of their lifes laying in ambush of their prey. They typically are found in shallow areas at night, were they come to feed on small fish and shrimp. One of the most effective ways to get flounder is to use a powerful light at night to illuminate the…
