Just take 45 south go across the big bridge and exit 61st street. Take that to the seawall and turn right. You will see the pier farther down. I think it is 98th street.

I fish there as much as I can and is usually 2 or 3 times a month. I fish both areas but Friday we fished the end of the pier. Trying to catch bull reds and sharks. Maybe I should try closer in.

fished friday afternoon at galveston fishing pier from 2 till about 8 oclock. landed two keeper flounder on live shrimp. I lost 3 keepers.. next time I will bring a net. water was nice and green all the way to the beach.. I have a feeling the trout bite will be good under the lights!! p.s. the fresh blacked flounder I had was delicious!!

Surf glad you caught something my wife got sick so I didnt make the trip ..Talked to a freind down there said he saw a BullRed landed , 3 jacks , 2 flounder , and some sheephead.... Yeppers Specks will be coming real soon ... You can get a 4 ft pier drop net and 30 ft of rope at GanderMountain for $25.00 . This monster net will pull up 70 lb sharks . Proply more but thats the biggest I ever pulled up .
