I will be going to Galveston (Jamaica Beach)this Friday and I am thinking about taking my 16 ft tracker with 25HP. Will it be worth while or should I leave it at home and just fish the jetties? I would like to get my kids on some fish but I have never taken a boat in the bay. Any advice would be helpfull.

Nobody can tell me anything about having a boat in the bay in Galveston area? What to watchout for, where to launch, or if it is worth dragging 5 hours?

I fish a kayak from san luis pass. Great fishing. My yak is much lighter so i just launch from the beach. But on the freeport side of the bridge (maybe 5 miles from jamaca beach) there a boat ramp. Just stay to the channles or you will be pushing.

Forecast is 15 to 20 knots wind this Friday.Not a good idea to be on the water on such windy condition.You've better off throw a couple surf rod out for some bull reds roaming the surf.

I would take that advice if I were you. Throw live menhadden for redfish andcut ladyfish for shark. Take some big rods and hold on!
