After entering the open Gulf with 45 fishermen aboard the partyboat Capt. John, Capt. Tony Langston began the 55 mile run South. The area chosen to be fished offered a variety of surface and bottom structure, made up of production platforms, gas wells and assorted rock formations.
Fishing their sardine or squid baits in the 125 ft. deep water, from the bottom to the near surface area wasn't quite as productive as it has been lately. The fish were marked on the bottom machine, but their 51% of the vote made the "catching" part of fishing a bit slow. Their efforts produced this earned catch:
?Ģ 77 red snapper to 8#, 85.5% of a limit.
?Ģ 10 kingfish
?Ģ 21 vermilion snapper
?Ģ 18 bluerunner
Looking at recent reports does show that catch rates vary, that's why the old saying goes, "It's called 'fishing', not 'catching'", and today had a respectable catch for a bit of a slow day. Give the Capt. John's Office staff at Galveston's Pier 19 a call to make your reservations and be part of the "catching". The office numbers are 409-762-8808 or 713-223-4853.

Having only a few widely scattered showers to contend with after a series of thunderstorms passed over Galveston Island in the early morning hours, Capt. Tony Langston motored the partyboat Capt. John into the Gulf. With no showers between them and the fishing area, the 30 mile run in a SE direction was a dry and smooth one. Fishing over several rock formations in around 70 ft. of water, the 64 fishermen's squid or sardine baits, worked from the near surface...... Read More
