Catching continues to be good. When the wind lets up we are catching nice boxes of spckled trout and redfish. Live shrimp has been best bait. Artificial lutes have also contributed to the ice box. Weve had several personal best .

Harryโ€™s guidea sercvice continues to make memories with many of its customers. Spring break has beed blessed with nice weather and the fish have responded. As weather continues to warm up I expect we see more and more nice boxes of fish. Lately we have beed successful with both live shrimp and artificial lures. The marshes are filling up and the red fish are moving in.

Galveston bay continues to pruduce good boxes of fish. The speckled trout are dominate the box. Artificial lures are working as well as live shrimp, and generally produceing better quality fish. Flounder season has opened back up. And are being caught consistently for those targeting them.

the trout have made a slight rebound here on Galveston Bay, With cooling water temps the fish are feeding up for winter. The best bite has been on live shrimp. How ever Artificial lures have also produced well on some days. The best bite has been in areas where the water is off color. This is the best time of the year to fish galveston bay. Cooler temps and hungry fish make for very enjoyable experience.

As seen in the pictures with this report Harrys Guide Service has been very busy catching Galveston Bay. Most recent stringers have been dominated with red fish. While some customer prefer trout we are able to find a few trout to fill there box. Galveston's best season is approaching fast. Cooler temps of fall and winter will make for a pleasant fishing experience. And the fishing should be awesome!

April and May has seen some higher than normal temperature. That combined with a lack of rainfal, has made this year a challenging, usual fish paterns are not holding true. My customers are catching there fish mostly in deeper water when the wind will allow access. Red fish have been making a better than normal contribution to our box. Most days we are catching our fish with poping cork and shrimp. Croakers have had there chance to catch fish will poor results fishing from the boat. Wade fiahing with croaker has had better results.
