Scott B and a Happy 15 yrs ! to you two also
 
Friday, Sept 16th Ron Kethan and wife Kelly were not disappointed. 74 total keepers and many many throwbacks. Specks, sandies, slot and bullreds. What a busy day on the water.
Best Regards,Master Captain Jaime Cantu Licensed by USCG and TPWD Fishing Galveston, TX Bays & Near Coastal

Saturday Sept. 17,2011 morning a half day trip produced 36 keepers and many throwbacks. Scott Bruden and wife Suzanne did not expect to catch but just a few. First cast big ol speck - 2nd cast big ol speck and it never stopped. Specks, sandies flounder and red fish "the Big 3"
were in the fish box at the end of the trip. Regards, Master Captain Jaime Cantu


The is the last of this past weekend fishing adventures. Sunday Sept 18 customer Jenny and her two boys Calvin and Abraham from Fort Worth, Tx whacked some nice fish.  25 total keepers and many throwbacks. Our adventure was cut short due to severe storms moving in to the Galveston complex. 3 hours of fish time and my customers spanked some specks, sandies and flounder.   
 Bay/Jetty Fishing Report:
 The big boys (bull reds) are constant at the jetties. Water was slightly stained however still producing many keepers. Water temp a hot 87 degrees. Bay fishing is solid but you must start early or later in the afternoon into evening. Free line shrimp or croakers are producing quality fish or with a popping cork.Well that's it for now.  Master Captain Jaime Cantu


 

What a day on the water! Despite 30 mile winds our anglers spanked some halicious fish. As you can see the big bad boys (bull reds) are still in town. My charter included my wifes employer DCG Partnership in Pearland, TX. President & CEO Lou & his lovely wife Cheryl son Ross friend Kyle and my beautiful wife Debbie. Before leaving the dock I coached them on how to bring in these monsters. First cast BAM. Second cast BAM and so on & so on. At the end of the short 5 hour trip. Five bull reds, slot reds, flounder, sand trout, atlantic sharp nose sharks and many many throw backs. A total of 26 keepers. These anglers were tired campers!  Fishing Report:  Water temp a cool 81 degrees. Harbor and bay water color is muddy to say the least. Yesterday I did not fish the jetties however many captains did & brought to the fish cleaning table bull reds and slots, big spanish mackerals etc. My recipe was "fresh dead shad and mullet" with an 8 ounce weight on the bottom. Well thats it for now. Master Captain Jaime Cantu Licensed by USCG and TPWD



 

October 1,2011 Well it was another georgous day in Galveston TX Oct 1st 2011. Despite mother natures winds our anglers Kerry, Randy, Jeff, Seth & Blake whacked some "Big Ol' Fish". Slot reds (behind the anglers) and the biggings were on the menu that evening. In addition to the red fish a 4'6" black tip shark was hooked & released. Water temp a modest 77 degrees. Water clarity stained but not terribly bad.  Winds a constant 30 miles and hour gusting to 40 frequently. Fresh dead shad was the ticket although cut crab & mullet was working occassionally. if you fish in these conditions make sure that you have a anchor that is rated for your vessel and plenty of chain to get the anchor down to hold. For my 25' boat I have an 18lb anchor, 12' feet of chain and 300' feet of anchor rope. Many boats these past few days have been beached due to not having the proper equipment to handle these conditions.

  Here is a email I just recieved from my group

Jaime, Thank you again for a great day out on the water today. Your enthusiasm and love of what you do for a living really show and it made our trip a memory of a lifetime. My buddies from North Carolina, Jeff and Randy, are already talking about when they can come back and hook into those big reds again. Come on Big Fish!Kerry Lilly -- Life Is Better Outside ·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸¸·´¯'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸ ><((((º>

Well Oct 14th 11' was an adventure. Dennis McDaniel won a contest from a Houston Company. Dennis was asked what he wanted as the prize,needless to say he wanted to catch some "big ol fish". Dennis was not disappointed. We netted roughly 12 big boys (kept 1 of course) then sand trout and many other species. What a day on the water. At the end of trip dennis wanted all of the fillets shipped home to San Jose, CA of which Katies SeaFood in Galveston took care of these details.Master Captain Jaime Cantu - 409 229 1067

Oct 15th was a referral trip from the Galveston Yacht Basin Bait camp. This group was in town for a bachelor party that evening which I'm sure was a success. Needless to say these anglers were exhausted at the end of the 7 hour. Joseph Longoria, Danny, Erin, Keith & D.C. spanked the big boys in addition to flounder, sand trout and specks behind the anglers.Water temp a cool 77 degrees. Color slightly stained but workable. This trips receipe was fresh dead shad with a heavy weight to keep um on bottom. Bays are producing nice specks and slot reds. Well thats it for now.

Oct 22nd was an awesome trip. These guys Trenton and son Jack couldn't beleive there eyes when this big boy was brought in the vessel.Reds, specks, sandies and gaftop were on the dinner menu for several days..Water temp 72 degrees water color clear in most areas.Flounder are in the area. Live mullet, live shrimp - gulp, flounder pounders and buggs lures are the ticket.Thats it for now. .Master Captain Jaime Cantu - 409 229 1067 or 713-649-0757

Oct 29th 2011 was a fun day with physicians and co-workers. Tracy, Mary, Rebecca and Anne brought in a bull red, atlantic sharpnose shark, gaftop and a bunch of sandies. Flounder for this trip were spotty however we did not spend a whole lot of time trying to catch these door mats due to the low tide. Water temp 71.5 degrees water color for the most part was muddy. Fishing at the jetties is still producing fine fish and plentiful.Live shrimp and mullet free line or with a 1/2 ounce egg weight continues to produce quality fish. Well thats it for now. Master Captain Jaime Cantu - 409 229 1067 or 713-649-0757


Nov-2011 The day after Thankgiving was a solid flounder day. Customer Jason Mapes from Pueblo, Colorado and girl friend Serena & Jeff and Taliah (not shown) whacked the  door mats. Smallest was 16" largest 25" 5 lbs. Using ;Gulp and live mullet on a double leader was the recipe.4 limits of the flat fish these anglers were happy campers. Fishing Report: Water temp was 64.5 degrees, clarity was slighly stained. Flat fish are solid in the harbor area and surrounding area as well. Jetties have been producing big black drum, big bull reds and slots along the way. Trout in the trinity area remain solid on soft plastics and top waters.Well thats it for now. Happy Holidays!Capt Jaime

Dec _ 2011

Robert Alexander and father Russell chartered a two day trip. This was Robert's 3rd trip in this year. December 14th was the flounder roundup. At the end of the day 4 nice flounder were kept for the oven or frying pan. 8 keepers were hooked however the anglers were so excited that they lost the remaining fish right before they were netted.
Note to anglers - let the net catch the fish rather than trying to pull the fish in the boat.
Largest flounder hooked but not in the cooler was guesstimated at 6 lbs. "I will get her on the next trip" !!!!!
 Flounder Fishing Report:
 Live mullet for my anglers worked the best under a 1/2 ounce egg weight.  My artificials were not sucessfull, gulp, bugs bait, flounder pounder etc.  Water temp was 52 degrees water clarity was exceptional in the harbor area!
 December 15th the anglers wanted nothing less than 20 lbs. Despite the horrendous fog banks in the ship channel and surrounding both jetties I was able to accommodate their request. First cast bam - big bull red 37"! Second cast - slot red 25"! Third cast a big ol' black drum and so on and so on. At the end of this trip, 8 bull reds kept two of course, 1 slot red, 6 black drum all to big to keep, sand trout and whiting. What a day and a dangerous day on the water. I went through 7 pounds of fresh dead shad approximately 80 cast and was out of bait a few hours later. 
Jetty Fishing Report Dec 15th:
 Water clarity exceptional, water temp 55.5. Fishing was great on bottom, 8 ounces of weight was using fresh dead shad 40 lb test 100 lb leader utilizing the big poles !!
 Safety words of wisdom:
 I purchased a garmin radar, weather satelite and fish finder system several months ago. With my radar system I was able to avoid a catostrophic considering the fog and moving or anchored veseels in the ship channel and anchorage area surrounding the ship channel. My point is simple - if you do not have the proper equipment to avoid collisions wait until the fog lifts or fish some where safe.   Well thats is for now. Best Regards and Safe and happy holidays.

Thursday Dec 29th was a fun day on the water. Father Rick Fritz Sr. son Rick Jr. Jerry and Fred cloberred some nice fish. I netted a combination of 20 fish from slot reds, whiting, sand trout and sheephead. We hooked more than 50 fish.
 Fishing Report & conditions:  This day was awesome on the jetties. A light wind out of the south with water temp @ 52.5 degrees and relatively clear. Using a rock anchor that put us very close to the rocks. Fish were biting on live shrimp. I again used a 1/2 ounce egg weight with a small circle hook.   
A few specks were caught at the north jetty however two big boys were caught at the south. 

A christmas gift from their wives provided to the husbands. Darryl, Brandon, Alan, K.C. & Mike caught some nice fish. 11 were in the fish box better than 30 were hooked. Sheephead, sand trout, whiting and slot reds made the mix.
Fishing Report and Jetty Conditions:
 Water temp was 55 degrees water clarity was slightly stained. The bite was much slower than the prior day which required me to move more than 15 spots. Winds were slight out of the south. Again live shrimp with a 1/2 ounce egg weight was the ticket. My rock anchor was used which enabled us a close proximity to the rocks. Slot reds, sandies, sheephead and whiting remain on the menu.

 


 

New Reports for 2012 !
