Where To Buy Big Bait In Galveston / Bolivar

Where To Buy Big Bait In Galveston / Bolivar - 08/02/19 03:11 PM

Any body know who is carrying big baits, like whole fish.... Jacks, Bonita, Kings and stingrays?

I realize it's based on the catches from the day and such but, are there any places that are consistently bringing in and selling?

It would be nice to have some big baits to get started with and then catch the rest through out the trip.

Thanks,
FishyB

The best place/s to look would be the fish markets in Seabrook by the Kemah Bridge . (North side of the bridge by the Clear Lake Channel. (Pier 8 Market)

A little out of the way but Seapony Bait and Tackle carry shark bait.

Seapony, as of yesterday, only had smaller jacks (1lb) and smaller skates (dinner plate and smaller), typically that's the place to go for larger cow-nose/jacks/Bonita but they said they've just been picked clean this summer. So definitely call them before making the drive
