Then the winds started blowing out of the east around 15. This maid it tuff for me to fish this area, so I made a move to more protected waters and picked up a few more keepers the rest of the day, with lots of small ones. All in all with winds up to 15-20 knts fishing was good. 14 Trout 4 Reds and several small ones.

Saturday, November 08, 2008

What a great day on the water this morning with 39 trout and 2 reds. I had a party of 4 out this morning making drifts over an area with hard sand that goes from 5 feet of water to 2 in about 150 yards. We keep working this area and keyed on bait that was working in the area. Winds were light and water was in great shape.

Sunday, November 02, 2008

Well fishing is at its best with near to full limits of trout and reds in both Galveston and Trinity Bay. We have had a great fall start despite what Hurricane Ike did to us at the end of summer. We have had trout to 4 lbs and slot reds to 8 lbs being caught for the past few weeks. We are going to have the best fall and winter fishing this year. We have had light a variable winds before and after each front, which has allowed the water to get right. We have lots of bait in our bay system right now, which have made the fish go into a feeding frenzy. This gets the birds going; the birds will find the bait that the fish are pushing up off the bottom to the surface. There have been flocks of birds that would be able to take up a whole football field. I still have some weekend dates in both November and December, give me a call or email me back to get in on some of this great fishing. Guys don’t forget that the day after Thanksgiving while the ladies are out shopping you can be out on the water fishing.

Saturday, November 01, 2008

With winds out of the Southeast at 15-20 knots maid it interesting. She did great after making a 15 minuet boat ride we started with our first drift. As I showed Gloria and Lisa how to cast before I could open my mouth the Cajun Thunder was down under the surface. Gloria was reeling in the first fish of the day. I then showed them how to cast and pop the Cajun Thunder, I casted Lisa’s out and she had a fish on in no time. We then had a tuff time finding the fish for awhile; we did pick up several small ones. After about 2 ½ hours we found some more trout, the ladies did a great job and ended up with a nice box of fish. I still have a few days open the rest of this month if you want to get out on the water. Give me a call to book your trip today!!!

Another great day on the water this morning with Richard, Cory and Michael. I was able to put in this morning at Thompson’s Bait Camp. We had a East wind that helped bring the water back into the bay. Cory and Michel was giving Richard a hard time after the first few drifts. Cory and Michel were picking up some trout and Richard was not. Richard was saying it’s not over till it’s over. Then Cory picked up a nice 3lb trout. Well after a few drifts it was time for Richard to go to work. Richard ended up picking up a 3lb trout to go with his other 5 or 6. Richard stopped all that talking for Cory and Michael. Never the lass that had a great time out on the water this morning.

Today was a lot of fun with dad Larry and 9 year old daughter Natalie and grandpa. We were not able to launch the boat at Thompson’s Bait camp due to the very low water. We ended up putting in at another boat launch and maid our way to the fish. I had a great time watching Natalie put it on her Dad and Grandpa. Natalie started with one and ended up with several nice trout before the day was all over. All fish were caught on live shrimp under the mighty Cajun Thunder in about 3 feet of water that would normally be about 5-6 feet deep.

Back out on the water this morning with Mr. and Mrs. Jones of Dallas. We started this morning with Mrs. Jones fighting a Big Ugly that was a good 45lbs and after about 10 minuets and Mrs. Jones saying I need help and myself and her husband saying your almost there. She brought in that big fish all by herself. Nice job Mrs. Jones!!! We picked up a nice box of trout to 4lbs. on both live shrimp and artificial baits. Most trout were caught when the tide started moving in. I still have a few days open this month, give me a call to book you spring and summer trips, summer trips are going fast.

This morning I was able to take fishing Mr. and Mrs. Shaffer (Oma & Opa) from Highlands, Texas. We took off out of the Marina and found nothing but dirty water, so we maid a little run to find better water and some trout. Well we found some better looking water with some protection from the wind. We maid several drifts over a shell bottom and picked up a really nice box of fish. Opa picked up a nice 3.1 lbs trout, he is the current second quarter leader of the Big Trout Leader Board. We had a great time out on the Bay, give me a call to book your spring or summer trip.

On the water this morning with Jason, Rick and Dick. From the very first cast to the last these three were giving each other a hard time in how many fish each other had. And who had the biggest fish. As Jason took the early lead on the first fish, after about two hours Dick took the lead. But it was not long before Richard turned on the light switch and started smoking both Dick and Jason. When it was all over Richard had not just taken the lead but had the most trout at the end of the day. It was a fun and productive day on the water. The trout were caught all morning in several different areas. We were fishing in 3-5 feet of water with both live shrimp and artificials. We had a few trout under the Cajun Thunder with a D.O.A. under it. Nice job there guys see you all this summer.

This past week has been nice with some really nice fish caught. We have had some nice trout and reds all caught on live shrimp under the Cajun Thunder in water from 3-5 feet, on day they are in shallow and the next day they are a little deeper. With this weak front moving thru this afternoon fishing should be great this weekend.

The weather/winds this past month maid it tuff on the water, but with a little hard work and finding good water we had some really fun and productive trips. Spring break had some great trips with some really nice fish caught.
