Canceled another one today.  The rains they are upon us!  The forcast calls for a good chance of rain for the rest of the week.  Hopefully the weekend will clear out and let us on the water.  Lows are dropping into the high 60's.   This, along with the rain, should bring the water temps down.  I was reading 76 on Saturday, so we should be getting down around 72 by the weekend.  The rains along with the passing front will hopefully kick off the fall pattern and we should start to see good numbers of birds working the middle of the bay.

Sept 19
Fished with a single today.  We headed out at dawn and although the winds were light this morning, we went through some nasty NW gusts while heading east.  It was bumpy to say the least.  We arrived at our destination and found the fish pretty quick.  We made a few drifts over this reef and had quite a few hook-ups.  The majority of the fish were sand trout, but we did manage a few specs in the mix.  We hit a few other spots throughout the morning and only found Sand trout on the other reefs, but good numbers and a few with sizes up to 15 inches.  We headed in around 1 with 9 in the box, but around 40 - 50 fish caught total.  A very fun day on the water.  The water temp was 76 degrees and the fall pattern is starting to take shape.  The Sand Trout are out in big numbers.  These fish are perfect frying size with many in the 12-15 inch range.  We probably could have boxed 15 - 20 of them if we wanted.

Sept 14

Haven't been out much lately due to the much needed rains.  Friday I went on a scouting mission that proved to be a waste of time.  The winds weren't strong, but the wrong direction for where I was.  The water was in decent shape but I just couldn't find any fish.

Today I took a group back to East Bay.  As usual, the fish were still on the mid-bay reefs.  They weren't eating well but we managed a few fish almost every drift.  We finished the day with 13 keeper specs and 3 sand trout. 

Hopefully once the weather improves and the tides recede, the marsh will drain and we will see some bird activity.  Last year we started seeing birds in August, but due to the dry summer they have been a no show so far.

AUG 29

Fishing today with a group of three.  We headed out before daybreak and went East.  We arrived at our destination and began catching trout without delay.  Soaking Croaker over mid-bay reefs, we had a few fish in the box after only one drift.  The winds turned a little more out of the north and our second drift missed the school.  We re positioned the boat and got on them again.  We boxed a 22, a 23, and a 24 inch trout.  The latter being my guest, Bill, personal best ever.  He has a few trips to galveston bay under his belt so this was a great accomplishment.  The total for the day was 18 specs and a couple of Sand Trout.


AUG 30

Today I had the pleasure of fishing with a repeat group from last month, a father son duo and their nephew.  Last month's trip ended with the youngster putting a whooping on the other two.  Today history repeated itself as he not only caught the most trout, he caught the majority of the fish in the box.  We didn't make it to yesterday's spot until around noon and it was already over on that reef.  We did manage to pick up some decent fish all in the 17-18 inch range.


AUG 31

What a difference  day makes.  After a week of nice weather, today the winds were coming out of the NE at 12 - 15 mph.  We tried to fish East Bay, but the winds were too much.  Although the water was still in decent condition, the winds had it white capping.  We moved off looking for calmer conditions and found ourselves all the way in West Bay.  We found some protected water and made a couple of drifts that yielded some nice fish.  We ended up with 8 trout with 1 going 22 and another going 24 inches along with a couple of redfish (21 and 26) and 2 flounder, both around 17 inches.

Changes are a coming folks.  The weather is beginning to shift into a fall pattern.  Soon we will be fishing the birds and the action will be fast and furious!  Stay tuned.
