I am the owner and the operator of Corks And Croakers and I have been fishing the Galveston Bay complex for over 15 years. Boating, fishing, and being on the water are the things I enjoy the most. I have participated in many charity tournaments and guided many anglers in preparation for such competitions. My biggest catch is a 29 inch Speckled Trout.

    Great Anniversary Trip!

    Fall Redfish and Speckled Trout2 adults

    This is our 2nd trip with Captain Mike & we will book with him again. A wise man once said, “marry someone who likes to fish,” so this was the perfect way to spend our 44th anniversary. A great morning on the boat, a beautiful rainbow over the water, and fresh fish to bring home.

    Reported catch:
    Redfish

    Great day on the water

    Fall Redfish and Speckled Trout2 adults

    Captain Mike was an amazing and persistent guide today. The morning bite was slow and he continued to find the best spot in the bay to put us on limits of reds. He takes time to show the best way to cast and explain what you are looking for in the water to increase your chances of catching the next fish. Captain Mike is definitely the guide to book for your next trip. My nephew and I will definitely be booking him again for the next one.

    GOOD TRIP OVERALL

    Fall Redfish and Speckled Trout2 adults

    Capt Mike was very professional. We got a little bit of a late start so we missed part of the morning tide. we caught Reds and Trout but no limits. what we did catch is going to be a great meal for the family. if you want a good trip with a guide book Mike. We’re already planning the next trip. THANKS CAPT MIKE

    Thanks for taking time to write your review. Twice as many fish next time would be a great trip.

What's biting with Corks and Croakers in Texas City

The weather is getting colder and the days are shorter. It's spawning time for Bull Redfish, which are heading closer to the bay, just waiting for anglers to reel them in.
