Galveston Bay Charters

It's hard to believe here we are in the middle of May and we have yet to get into our usual summer pattern of calm southeasterly breezes, water green to the beach, and the mid-bay reefs being fishable. The fish have been hard to get to (in the open water) with the wind blowing this way, so we've been pretty much pinned to the shorelines and wading slicks and areas with active baitfish to score most all of our fish. The topwater bite has been really good considering the rough conditions. You cannot work your bait in the normal walk-the-dog pattern and have alot of success in these conditions. We were trynig that the other day and getting alot of blow-ups, not hook-ups. Once we started working the bait real slow and letting it stop in the waves for long periods of time and just keeping our line tight we started hooking up on a regular basis. Sometimes we would just reel straight in real slow and were successful that way also. When this wind finally settles down things are going to get pretty crazy. The surf will be awesome, along with drifting the mid-bay reefs. The fish are there, we just cannot get to them like we normally can this time of year. Message to the weather god's; Please stop this blow!!! To book your trip call 281-300-5806. Until next time...
