What We Are Fishing For During Bay Fishing Adventures

  • Redfish (Red Drum): One of the most popular targets for inshore anglers, redfish are known for their hard-fighting nature and delicious taste. They are often found in shallow waters, around grassy flats, and near oyster beds.
  • Speckled Trout (Spotted Seatrout): Speckled trout are abundant in Galveston’s inshore waters, especially in the warmer months. These fish are prized for their fight and are commonly found near drop-offs and around underwater structures.
  • Flounder: Known for their unique, flat bodies and excellent camouflage, flounder are typically found on sandy or muddy bottoms. They are a favorite among anglers for their challenging catch and delectable meat.
  • Sheepshead: Easily recognizable by their black and white vertical stripes, sheepshead are often found around piers, rocks, and jetties. These fish are not only fun to catch but also make for great eating.
  • Black Drum: These fish are similar to redfish but can grow much larger. Black drum are commonly found in the same areas as their red counterparts and are known for their strong fight.
  • Other Species: Depending on the season and water conditions,  you may also encounter Spanish mackerels, crevalle jack, a variety of shark species, and Bull Reds as well as Big Uglies (over slot black drum).
