They are targeting snapper right now during the short season. The season was just extended six more days. I didn't weigh any of the fish but I'm guessing the bigger ones are in the 14 lb range. It was a good trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liltex Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 If you go offshore on a Galveston Party boat try to reserve a spot off the back of the boat.Less line crossing and you can drift a spanish sardine to catch kings,ling etc.Bring some wire leaders 24" and put 2 hooks 6" apart & hook 1 through the head,the other bury in the flesh behind the fin and attach a strong swivel to 1 end.Buy your own bait and fish big baits-not the small squid they chop up and put in the troughs and gets hot and keep your bait in a sm.cooler w/ice to keep fresh(note:fresh 6-8" mullet works well).You're better off to bring 2 of your own hvy rods cause theirs is junk ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about getting some mullet but time slipped up on me. You have to reserve far in advance to get at the back of the boat. I may bring my own rod next time but the ones supplied by the boat will get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearBryant Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 I went a couple of weeks ago with my two sons and a buddy and we brought home 10 reds and 21 specs. Very nice trip. My youngest caught a four foot bullshark as well. My oldest got a three four alligator gar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
