Galveston top catches Reds, Flounder, Bull Reds







Chamber of Commerce weather continued in Galveston on Thursday, with some of the most beautiful surf conditions seen in a while. 

While the beach front was in spectacular shape, no reports were in from that area by press time Thursday.

There was a good report, however, from Tuesday sent in by Henry Homrighaus Jr., who along with four other guests fished the South Jetty with Capt. Mike Eden

 Using live shrimp and mullet for bait, the anglers caught and released five bull reds and retained a 29-inch bull red that was tagged.  

Slot reds, sheepshead, mangrove snapper, black drum and Spanish mackerel rounded out their morning catch. 

Flounder Pounder inventor and well-known flounder fishermen Phil Ortiz was on the water Thursday morning. 

He and his friend Randy Williams were in hot pursuit of Ortiz’s favorite fish.

Fishing mid-bay spots and around the causeway area, they found lots of nice-sized flounder moving with the outgoing tide.
