Until Thursday afternoon, I thought we might be returning to an ice age with little or no sunlight, however, the beautiful bright sun finally appeared and with it a warming trend.
Late Thursday, when crossing the causeway on my way back to Galveston there were at least three boats in view fishing at dusk.
Curiosity got the best of me so I
pulled off the highway and made my way to Galveston Bait and Tackle, a
favorite launching spots for boats fishing upper West Bay.
At the cleaning table was Mike
Hester cleaning four nice trout he had caught earlier from a spot
between the causeway and railroad bridges. Hester said that there had
been limited action for the past week just before dusk and his catch was
representative of what he had been taking each time.
In other fishing news, action popped open at the jetties Friday morning with the calm conditions and sunny skies.
Sand trout, sheepshead, reds and black drum were biting, and a few anglers were there to take advantage of it.
Smoky McDaniel and J.L. Russo
fished the North Jetty just inside the boat cut Friday where they landed
seven nice-sized sheepshead and two black drum. Live and dead shrimp
were the baits.
Over at the South Jetty, Maurice
Higgins and his two sons found action on bull reds catching three,
tagging and retaining one and releasing the other two.
The rocks near the Galveston
Ferry Landing produced two sheepshead and two whiting for Mack Shelton
who fished from the bank using peeled shrimp for bait.
Bill Curtis of Pearland used dead
shrimp and cut bait to land about half an ice chest of sand trout. His
fish came from areas around the Pelican Island Bridge late morning
Friday.
