Fishing 2007

Are you looking for some rod bending bottom action for grouper, big red snapper, amberjack or ling? Maybe you prefer trolling weed lines and tidal rips for some fast top water action like dolphin, sailfish, wahoo or kingfish.
We take pride in putting your fish in the box and endeavor to give you the most enjoyable memories of a lifetime. Come spend a day on the gulf of mexico with us and find out why so many of our customers return to fish with us year after year.

Sept. 1,2007 Galveston Jetty Trip, Got out around 6:30 and anchored out. Man there is some Big reds right now at the jetties bite was slow but, ended with 5 nice ones all tagged, Hung into a huge jack crevalle Bait! decided to pull up anchor and head over to the beachfront to see what was happening, plenty of small trout with about 4 nice keeper about 20, caught a few whiting at the same spot keep about 6 of those that were decent size, headed over to the T-head and bite was pretty slow at first 20 min so we sat anchored a bit and boom shark on .Did manage to get a few sheephead This was a full day trip and a very productive day it was ,oh did manage 4 gafftop up to about 8 lbs.9-2-2006-Headed out to the Jetty had 2 people that wanted a early morning trip so we headed out of dock around 4:00am and anchored out got a couple of trout near the rocks using my lights, had something bite couldn't get it to the boat on light tackle about the time he started reeling snap.. When I fish the jetties I use med tackle to heavy because right where the tides colide it is rough and you never know what is hanging in there could have been a Tarpon who knows we never saw it. Well excitment was high after that so we started with my penn's, next we hung a nice 7' blacktip probably what we missed the last time after all they feed heavy at night around structure, they wanted him after a 1 1/2 fight so in the boat he went. Headed back to the T-Head anchored out caught some nice fat sheephead ,whiting, snapper. We ended this trip with snapper,whiting,shark,sheephead,reds,3 croaker pretty good eating size.
