Galveston Fishing Preps | Reviewing the Fishing Regulations

In our preparations for heading to the coast this next week, always good to review the fishing regulations so we know what are the legal daily limits, minimum and maximum lengths, and other things we should be aware of!

On the Road This Weekend, Fished Galveston!

On the road this past weekend. Fished Galveston, Texas at the 61st Street Fishing Pier! Had a great time with nice weather and lots of action on Gafftop, Sand Trout, Whiting... and small Sharks. Met some great folks - other fishermen and the Pier Staff! Even saw part of reality TV show  "Little People" being filmed!

Tail Mount of a Spanish Mackerel

When we fished the Galveston Fishing Pier the other day, we caught our first Spanish Mackerel.  We wanted to try something different to capture the moment other than taking a picture, so we decided on trying a Tail Mount!  After a little research on the Internet, got an understanding of how to make one.  We liked it better than a picture; not bad for a bunch of "non-pros"!

Fished Galveston This Round!

Decided to make a road trip to the coast Saturday.  Noticed a couple of fishing piers in Galveston that looked promising. Opted for the Galveston Fishing Pier (also known as the 91st Street Pier).

Fished for about 10 hours and caught a number of fish.  Of note were several small Sharks, Gafftop, a big Stingray (but lost the pics and video), and a Spanish Mackerel!

Caught the Sharks using Squid, the Gafftop using Squid as well as cut bait, and the Stingray using Squid.

Other fish were caught using Shrimp.  None were Bruisers but we did have several breakoffs that we suspect were Bruisers!
