Hello all!

I am new to this fishing forum and slightly new to fishing but have instantly become passionate for the sport of fishing.

My question is, do any of you know any good spots in La Porte or League city? I usually go to piers around Sand Leon or Kemah but would like to try something new, looking for flounder and reds. Thanks!

Why don't you guys just drive a few minutes more and fish Galveston? As a pier fisherman, I've had some really good luck at Seawolf, 61st, and Galveston fishing pier (90th and Seawall), so I don't mess with any bay fishing.

However this is just me, others may have some really good luck fishing the Galveston Bay system.



I'm always catch and release, except for cut bait.

hmmm, in san leon i heard the san leon park is good (never fished there before) but i believe its free. My uncle always goes there. I usually go fishing under the bridge by kemah, have had some decent luck there but mainly looking for a more private pier. Also, theres a pier on 18th street. i havent caught anything decent there yet, its only good for night fishing really because theres lights and i think its $6 a person.

I mentioned Galveston earlier, but forgot to mention the Texas City dike.

I'll see if I can get my buddy Ric involved in this thread. He fishes these areas and may have some ideas.

The dike is pretty close to the areas you already fish, about 10 minutes down the road. On the dike you can catch all the flounder you want, fish off the right side with live finger mullet, you will get stuck pretty often due to the roxks but thats where tue flounder hang out waiting to attack, all u have to do really is just cast not even 10-15 feet from where u stand and just let it sit..the finger mullet schools havent been plentiful lately so catching them urself is a hit or miss..i suggest buying some finger mullet from Boyds bait shop, there 6$ a dozen which is a gd price, get there early though because they go buy fast. Also buy a bag a fresh chad for the bull reds they have been biting gd on them lately. Ill actually be there tomorrow, i fish right at the sign that says road ends 1000ft, i drive a black 4 door silverado on chrome rims, stop by and say hello.

I'm planning on driving 5 hours to Galveston next week to try some fishing. Unfortunately, the weather forecast shows 30% chance of rain. I'm wondering if I should cancel my hotel reservations because I don't know if the fish will bite if it rains. Any suggestions on this would be helpful. Thank you.

I dont think the fish mind the rain, they're already wet.

Rain is good for fishin' provided it isn't because of a large cold front.

Electricity is another story, fish don't mind, but I do because I'm too conductive when wet.

way2slickrick, hopefully I am not asking too much since I never been there and will give a try in next couple of weeks. Is there any fee (parking...) to fishing on the Dike? Is it a long walk from parking place to where you fish, a lot of rock of flat road? Can fish on both side of the dike? May I know the exact loaction of the Boyds bait shop? What kind of fish you may catch, besides flouder, red fish, how about sand trout, whiting...?
Thanks a million.
