8-6-11 East Galveston Bay

Got to the dock at 6:30am and no more live shrimp :( Had to use frozen. Got to the Galveston Jetties in a hurry passing boat after boat :D You get some crazy looks when they see you heading for open water on a Jetski... Fished the jetties on an incominf tide with notthing but an undersized trout and bait fish biting.

Then headed to StingRays Dock side bar in East Bay for a burger and beer. Loaded up on live shrimp, then we decided to fish the grass flats at Elmer Grove Bayou and found us a little honey hole of Red Fish. Water was only 2-3 feet deep with a mud bottom whic was perfect for the ski. Caught one after another but only kept two 22" for dinner.
Going again this weekend...

Thanks for the report. Why does a burger and a beer taste so much better when on the water?

Was the smaller fish a greedy fish or was that your bait?
