Location: Galveston Jetties
Air Temp: 65-83
Water Temp: 78
Depth: 20-27 feet
Wind: calm to 20 mph
Bait: cut mullet and live shrimp
This was my fourth annual fall fishing trip with my buddy Alan. We were hoping for some action with some big redfish and this trip was not great, but we did land 5 and lost a few. The winds were about 10-15 mph on Wednesday when we dropped the anchor about 10:30 AM near the boat cut on the channel side of the North jetty in about 27 feet of water. It didn't take long for a bull red to find our bait in a strong outgoing tide, but the action was slow compared to that same location a few weeks ago.
The winds were around 17 mph out of the North on Thursday morning which made for a bumpy and wet ride out to the South Jetty. We anchored with a few other boats on the Gulf side of the jetty in about 27 feet of water and managed one bull red and a few small sharks before we decided to try the North Jetty. Things were really slow with no tidal movement at the North Jetty, so we headed into the ship channel and had some fun with sand trout for about two hours. We must have caught and released 30+ sand trout.
Another great time on the water in Galveston.
