Highlights of Redfish Fishing in League City
League City's location along Galveston Bay creates ideal redfish habitat with shallow grass flats, oyster reefs, and protected coves. These copper-colored fighters average 20-28 inches with occasional bulls pushing 35+ inches. The bite stays active through changing tides, with early morning and late afternoon producing the most consistent action. Sight-fishing opportunities peak during warmer months when reds cruise the shallows, while cooler weather concentrates fish around deeper structure.
Local techniques include live shrimp under popping corks, soft plastics worked along drop-offs, and topwater plugs during low-light periods. Captain Michael adjusts tactics based on conditions, ensuring productive fishing regardless of weather or season.
