Reel in Summer Excitement: Galveston Bay Fishing Adventure!

Action-packed day from the get-go! I took Jose out for a 5 Hour Inshore Fishing trip in Galveston Bay this summer. We launched from League City, TX in the early morning, ready to chase some fish. The weather was a bit iffy to start, but we knew it was supposed to clear up in the afternoon. There was a chance of strong storms, so we kept an eye on the sky as we headed out. It's always an adventure with Corks And Croakers, and this trip was no exception.

Once the stage was set, we got down to business. I showed Jose the ropes of inshore fishing, focusing on some beginner-friendly techniques. We started off with live bait fishing, which is always a solid choice in these waters. As the day progressed, we mixed it up with some popping cork action and tried our luck with soft plastic lures. The variety kept things interesting, and it was great to see Jose picking up the techniques quickly.

Our persistence paid off when Jose hooked into a nice Spotted Weakfish. It put up a good fight, measuring in at 17 inches - a respectable catch for sure. We also managed to land some Redfish, which are always a blast to catch in Galveston Bay. The fish were biting, and we had a great time working different spots around the bay. We wrapped up the trip with smiles all around, despite the threat of storms that never fully materialized.
