I went and it sucked. Water was really dirty (maybe 3 inches visibility tops).
Casted for about 3 hours in LOTS of bait without a bite. All arty.

I knew it would be sandy, just didn't think it would look like it did. I have caught fish in sandy water many times....but this was the worst I have ever tried in the surf.
Going to need some SE wind to clean it up. Anything else and it will not have a chance to settle out.

Thanks for the report guess i wont go after all. Unless it settles real quick which part of galveston were you just general direction. No gps numbers. I was thinking of west of the sea wall a few miles. I did really great last week there but if it is dirty then that sucks.

We ran the length of Follets. Galveston was likely worse.

A read this guy's surf report every morning and he said this morning that the water clarity was very good for fishing in the surf??? I guess not.

I'm heading South from of Pass Cavallo tomorrow. I just can't take it any longer ! It doesn't have to be very clean, to be very fishable.

went out (Quintana) this morning and it was that sweet color of yoohoo we all love to see. Buddy lost a 22 and another strung up a 17. I pulled in 2 gafftop on the corky of all things. That is the 2nd trip in a row that I have caught the gafftops on corkies. WTH
Bait jumping but nothing with spots bit my lure.

It didn't look anything like that in Gorda this morning. Looked almost like Yoo-hoo soda. There was no wind to speak of but pretty strong current/wave action. I took one up to my eyes standing in water that was thigh deep next to a cross gut.Johnnytx said:
Sandy .
Birds were working yesterday and today.
Took some pictures of a guy walking with the birds in waste deep water and hooking up every cast.
Then a truck load of dick heads jumps out and cuts him off.
My 14 yr old says "would you do that ?"
Nope, but it was fun to watch the guy hook up as my son stared at 4 rods loaded in the back of the pick-up.
