I've fished a lot around Galveston for many years, and I'll have to say that winter fishing isn't very productive. There's only one place I know of for good winter fishing (Fort Point, Galveston). Drops to nearly 60 feet only yards from the shoreline. Unfortunately, this is a restricted area.

Rollover Pass is probably going to be your best bet for winter shore fishing.

Also, most any sailor who has sailed the world including Scandinavia and Alaska will tell you that the coldest they've ever been is riding a boat into Galveston during the winter with a damp blowing wind. Be prepared

Solid stuff, thanks.

Do you know anything about the depth off Texas City Dike Road? It starts in Texas City and ends near the northern point of Seawolf. I've never been but I wonder if one side doesn't drop off quickly.
