The water clarity is average for East Galveston Bay, with better clarity west of Yates. The redfish bite was excellent for us this week, around drains and in the very shallow water areas back in the marsh.

f you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway with a taste of local history, stunning views, and fun activities for the whole family, a vacation on the Upper Texas Coast should be at the top of your list.

This week, once again the story has been wind, wind, and a little more wind. The water clarity is about average for East Galveston Bay west of the Stingaree and clarity declines the further east you venture past Big Pasture Bayou. The majority of our success this week has been back in the marsh and back lake areas as we searched for some protection from the strong winds.

As summer approaches, there's no better way to celebrate the season than spending Memorial Day Weekend on Bolivar Peninsula. This peaceful stretch of Texas coastline turns into a vibrant hub of beach lovers, families, and patriotic spirit, all gathering to honor the holiday and enjoy the simple pleasures of the Gulf.

Water clarity was stirred up more than usual after the fronts we had this past week, but the fish did not seem to mind. We had quite a bit of North wind this week, but still fishing shell structure in 2 to 4 feet of water, and most of our springtime places produced consistent trout action.

Get ready for a weekend of coastal charm, mouthwatering seafood, and lively entertainment at the 2025 Texas Crab Festival, celebrating its 40th anniversary from May 9–11 at Swedes Park in Crystal Beach, Texas . This beloved Mother's Day weekend tradition offers a vibrant mix of Gulf Coast culture, live music, and family-friendly activities.

The past few days, we have once again fished where we can find some protection from the wind, as well as find some water that is not totally blown out. We have thrown ¼ oz jig heads with Wac Attack straight tails in Rollover Moon, Deadly Dudley Rat Tails, Walking Top Waters, as well as imitation Shrimp lures, under a 1’-2’ leader with a Fish Smack Popping Cork.
