Galveston Fishing Blog

There was not much in the way of fishing activity Sunday.

Conditions were somewhat improved compared to Saturday with lighter winds and slightly warmer temperatures.

Sunday’s only fishing reports centered around flounder fishing as the fall migration continues.

On Dec. 1, the limits for flounder returned to the 5-fish-per-person threshold and flounder gigging was allowed to resume after being shut down for the month of November.

Luis Decker, Aunt Margie’s Bait Camper, reported two limits of flounder being taken by Texas A&M University at Galveston students Cody Klindt and Chris Blackburn. The aggies took their limits by gigging near the university. I suppose you could say that this would be a good example of Gig-um Aggies.

The Chorizo Flounder Tournament produced some good results by the 36 anglers who were registered.

A total of 129 flounder weighing more than 463 pounds were weighed in.

The winners were Kevin Pete, first place; Mike Price, second place; and Nathan Chain, third place.

The flounder side pot winners were Kevin Pate, first place, and Janzen Miller, second place.

The tournament offered a side pot for redfish and the winners of that category were Kody Graves, first place, and Warren Burhman, second place.

The lingering northerly winds are creating very low tide levels and the forecast is for that trend to continue most of this week.

Another cold front early this week will just add to the problem by generating incrementally lower water levels.
