what a great trip out we had our limit on trout within 45 mins.
You guys sure made it easy on me. Great fun watching kids catch fish now to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Guide put us on fish, the kids had a great time, and we came home with plenty for our family fish fry. We boxed 9 specs, 22 sandies, a pompano, black drum, and a couple big whiting. We're very happy with our experience.
Thanks guys, y’all made it so much fun to watch..Hope to you guys again..

It was a Saturday trip so we knew it would be busy! Our guide took us to a place in West Galveston bay where he had been catching trout close to the rocks on shrimp under a popping cork. We caught lots of fish, mostly non keeper and not good species but was a fun trip. My only comment is if that kind of structure is not producing, why continue to fish it all day which is what we did. I wanted to see all kinds of different areas just to learn more about the Galveston Bay Area but we never left that structure and ended up with 1 trout, 1 sheepshead, and one other species I can’t remember that we kept. We caught lots of “other” species and a few undersized trout and redfish but I am disappointed we really never left his primary ares in spite of having numerous other boats in the same area! And no real either quantity or quality of fish! We stayed on certain spots for more than 30 minutes with no fish and we finally asked him to make a move! But again, we never left his original area! Our first trip with him and I am not sure he did not want to show us his better spots but he truly is paid to put us on fish and we really did not accomplish that! Great guy and fun but I think we stayed in that one area all day when we should have moved when he realized there were no real fish in the area.
Sorry guys just tried to stay out of the heavy winds to give us a chance at some fish. I would take you guys to any spot if I would’ve thought the wind would allow but yes those rocks have been hot.

We had a great day fishing with captain Raymond. Captain Raymond was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the areas we were fishing. Captain Raymond went above and beyond to make sure we had keeper fish, overall our experience was fun and exciting. We will definitely be coming back and booking another trip with him. 10 stars
Thanks guys for choosing Tail Spotter Guide Service. It was a great time. Lil bit of everything. Can’t wait to do it again.
