re: Wade/Surf Fishing Galveston Guides/Tips

Usually June-August we'll have a few windows of light north winds that lay down the surf and trout fishing can get pretty good on the beach.

My formula for above conditions when I really start paying attention:
3 Days SE wind (green water to beach)
1 Day N wind (flattens the surf to be wade-able)

ETA
The best trout fishing day of my life has been self guided on Surfside beach. 90 minutes straight catch and release 15-20” trout after my limit (Pearl lil jon XL on 1/8 screw lock). I’m talking legit fish on every cast, you miss a bite and you’re going to get another and another until you hook up.

Lost count of how many fish I caught on the last pearl bait I had. Once fish destroyed it and it wouldn’t stay on hook they wouldn’t bite anything else nearly as well.

Welcome to the addiction.
