"Breezy & Bumpy" were once again waiting offshore for the partyboat Capt. John, and as usual, those long and lean twin hulls effectively knifed through those bumps.

The head swordsman, Capt. Tony Langston, pointed the Capt. John to the south after passing the end of Galveston's south jetty. Rocks about 40 miles out was the destination. Fishing baits of cut squid or whole Spanish sardines in the 80 ft. deep water, the 63 fishermen wound in this catch:
?Ģ 105 red snapper to 10 lbs.
?Ģ 1 lane snapper
?Ģ 265 Atlantic spadefish
?Ģ 1 rock hind grouper

Katy Langston, Dickinson, Capt. Langston's 12 year old daughter, had Atlantic spadefish and a red snapper limit.

Aaron Hardin, Texas City, 8 years old, with Atlantic spadefish, a rockhind grouper and a red snapper limit.

Vicky Arnold, Texas City, Aaron's mother, had Atlantic spadefish and a red snapper limit.

Jennifer Jackson, Sugarland, also with Atlantic spadefish to go along with her red snapper limit.

Today's trip was the first this year with a sizeable number of those hard-pulling and great to eat Atlantic spadefish. Ninety-eight percent of the time you see them take the bait ??? usually a small piece of squid on a small hook. Squid and small hooks are supplied by the boat ??? all you have to do is hook'em, fight'em and land'em. To get your part of the multi-species catch possibilities that include those Atlantic spadefish, red snapper, kingfish and assorted groupers, etc., give the office a call at 409-762-8808 or 713-223-4853 and get in on the fun of fishing on the partyboat Capt. John.
