Johnny Williams
Today's offshore fishing trip by the partyboat Capt. John was run with 43 fishermen aboard. After passing the end of the jetties and entering the Gulf, Capt. Johnny Williams started the southerly run.
The destination for today's fishing was a series of rock formations about forty miles offshore of Galveston. Their efforts, along with the squid or sardine baits that were worked from the bottom to the near surface area, had this catch coming over the rail.
?Ģ 82 red snapper to 7#, just 4 shy of a boat limit.
?Ģ 6 lane snapper
?Ģ 1 mangrove snapper
?Ģ 1 dorado (mahi-mahi)
?Ģ 17 kingfish to 25#
?Ģ 6 Atlantic spadefish (a.k.a. "Tiger Snapper")
?Ģ 22 gray triggerfish
As we've reminded you recently, the red snapper fishery only has about two and a half months to be open in our offshore waters. While a variety of other species are targeted and caught, such as other snappers, kingfish, ling, Atlantic spadefish, now affectionately known as "tiger snapper", assorted groupers, etc., if red snapper is of interest to you, the clock is ticking. The red snapper closure will likely be from 7 to 9 months! Give the Capt. John a ring at 409-762-8808 or 713-223-4853 and make your reservations at the rail. The Gulf's multi-species catch possibilities are out waiting for your bait to present itself...call today!

John exited the Galveston Jetties. Assorted rock structure in 75 ft. of water was the 58 fishermen's cut squid or sardine baits target. This was a tall target since they worked all of the water column below the partyboat Capt. John. Their efforts brought this catch over the rail: ?Ģ 2 kingfish to...... Read More

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...... Read More
