With the beginning of the month continuing to be warm the fish been going crazy! After each front the bite has gotten better and better, Bull Reds, Jacks, Sharks, have been swarming around closer to the coastline.

Bay fishing has really turned on as well, nice trout, reds, flounder, have been plentiful in the shallow bays.

The Bull Reds are running big time out in the gulf. We are offering short runs out for bull reds, sharks, and mackerel. Most trips lately have caught over 20 of these fish within an hour or so. Some really fast action on big fish. Some trips have got a mix of the bulls and smaller eating sized reds as well.

The inshore Bay fishing has been good for trout, red fish, flounder, mangrove snapper, croaker and drum. This recent cool front should make it really turn on as the water cools.

The Bull Reds are starting to run. They are making there fall run up and down the beach front. Fun Fish to catch lots of action on big hard fighting fish. On these trips we will get sharks and some trips will also get some king fish action. We have also been getting some cobia coming through as well. Sept- November will have some great weather and great fishing days to come. Look for our recent photos!

July and August are some of our prime months to fish here on the Texas Gulf Coast. Red Snapper season ended on July 18, which came very short. We had some great trips with our red snappers averaging 10-15 lbs on the days we were able to make 30 plus miles. Most trips got their limit within an hour and we were off looking for other species such as, king, ling, dorado, and sharks.

During August we have been hitting the short rigs and shrimp boats getting plenty of kings, sharks, a few ling and dorado as well. As Sept approaches we will have a mix of Bull Reds as well.. This fishing will go on through early November. Cant wait for some of those cool October mornings! October is one of my favorite months to fish, with spring like conditions and some great warm water fishing..

They may even reopen the red snapper season for October.. still waiting on an update.

Red snapper season is finally here. It looks to be a short one June 1st- July 18. We have had some great trips lately, with the snapper averaging 10 lbs or more. Also have been getting Kings, ling, mahi, sharks... The winds have died down so it looks like we will have some nice days to come.

Now is the time to go!

We have posted our current catch photos on our pictures page. We try to update them daily.

There are still days available. We have 3 offshore boats, so getting out shouldn't be a problem..

Starting towards the end of March the big bull redfish did there annual spring run. Almost every trip we did caught lots of big bulls. The water temps were hovering around 68-70, once it hit the 70 mark it broke wide open. The Jacks starting coming in, along with spanish mackerals. The last week or so the Bull sharks have come in as well, some pushing 100 plus pounds. We have even begun catching a few cobia, the water temps keep rising so more fish will keep moving our way....

Our inshore bay fishing has been really good lately. The warming temps have made the trout and red fish move up on the flats. Drifting over mid bay reefs has been best. The fish have been holding over shell reefs in about 3-4 ft of water. Most of our trips have been using artificials.

Out in the gulf we have been catching Big Red fish, and red snapper. The snapper have to be released since the season is closed. But they are fun to catch. The warm up is definitely helping, the bull red run should start very soon.

Capt Leaf

Although the fronts keep coming, the days after the front are prime fishing days. Out in the gulf we are still getting lots of king fish and some really nice red snapper. Nov. 19-21st our the last days of the 2010 snapper season.  On the days we don't fish for snapper we are fishing for Bull Red Fish, they are still plentiful just right off shore.

On the bay side the flounder fishing has been good, as well as trout and lots of red fish using artificials and live shrimp.

The winter months will still have many fishable days to come.

The Red Snapper season has reopened. Started on oct. 1st and will go thru nov. 22nd weekends only Fri-Sun are the fishing days.  On the opener we got into some really nice fish, averaging 10-20lbs. and lots of them. This is typical for this time of year the fish always seemed bigger as the weather cools.

We headed out caught a bunch of nice snapper and worked our way back inshore, where the kings, ling, sharks and bull reds were. The weather has been really nice, cool temps and great fishing.

The Bay fishing is heating up as well. Birds are working in the back bays over feeding trout and redfish. The flounder are also showing up along deeper shorelines.

This time of year is one of our best times to get on fish..And one of my favorite months of the year!

The bull red fish run has begun. All of our trips lately have been finding these big schools of Bull Reds, its been common to catch 20-40 of these fish in just a couple hrs. Mixed in the bunch have been black tip sharks, jacks and the occasional ling.

 Bay fishing has been good as well, the trout have been moving into shallow waters hitting on live shrimp. Flounder have been decent as well on finger mullet on the bottom.

 Looks like the feds are going to extend the RED SNAPPER season! It is supposed to open on Oct 1st and go thru Nov. 22nd.  with frid sat sund the only days you can fish for them. These should be some great trips for some big snappers.

With water temps in the 78-80 degree range, the gulf fishing is on! The Big Sharks have shown up just off the coast line along with Jacks, Bull reds and a few king fish..

The deep water fishing is good for Grouper, Amber Jack and wahoo.. We boated a 80+ lb wahoo at the beginning of the month on a deep water trip.

Bay fishing has been good for trout, red fish, and a few flounder mixed in. Bay fishing has been good even on the windy days, using live shrimp..

The spring Bull Redfish run is on. Big schools of fish out just a few miles from the beach, most fish averaging 20 lbs or more. We caught our first Cobias aka (Ling)of the year this week as well. Water is warming up, big schools of spanish mackeral near the jetties. Lots of small sharks as well mixed in.

Bay fishing around the jetties has been producing some really nice trout and lots of slot sized red fish.

Water temps are in the low 70s, so as it gets warmer the fishing just gets better!

The Bay fishing has been good to excellent for trout and red fish with a few flounder in the mix. Best bite has been in the back bays along oyster reefs.  Some birds have been working over schools of trout mid bay as well.

Out on the gulf the bull reds have moved up closer to the beach front along with a mix of sharks including sand, bonnet head, bull, and black tip sharks. As the water warms should be more to come as far as king fish, jacks, cobia, and spanish mackeral...

Capt Leaf

Weather was decent, a little cool on some days, but nice overall.

We did a mix of trips, with the bay and short range offshore trips being the best. On the bay side we managed some really good red fishing, some days getting full limits of nice slot reds, with many throw backs mixed in. Trout were around as well, some trips getting lots of small ones with a few keepers, along with the occasional flounder and sheep head in the mix.

Out in the gulf were catches of Big Bull Reds, along with a few Black Drum. The Bull Reds averaged 15-30 lbs.

The water temps are slowly rising bringing in more fish as it warms. We should be in our full spring pattern any day now as it warms.
