People were laughing at me for using my baitcaster at the pier this past weekend. Then I hooked up with a nice pompano and they were silent lol. Love fishing at that pier!
I was born in Galveston, have lived in Texas City my whole life, and fished Galveston Bay area my whole life. I am also the jump pilot at Skydive Galveston, and seen the waters in this area from the air for years. I have never seen the water this clear... I keep thinking how awesome it would be if the currents stayed this way and the water stayed this clear. Main problem is the currents pushing the Mississippi River outflow, and other large rivers' outflow, to the west. At least from my understanding of it. That is why Corpus and SPI have such clear waters
Gotta question for ya: Do you know whether the fish is safe to eat yet down there? I'm plannin to make a huge move down to Galveston hopefully a year from now or so if I play cards right & I love seafood as well as fishin upon the surf.
@TheHumanConversationalist Oh yeah it is definitely safe to eat! I have eaten it all my life. I would say fish the waters that are not so industrial and don't fish any ponds or lagoons near refineries, those can be bad. You can research fishing Galveston Bay or surf fishing Galveston to learn more about it I am surd.
FYI: The reason we are calling them Spanish mackerel, kingfish, is because last year one of the wardens misidentified our Spanish mackerel and said they were kings. It's an inside joke. Who fishing this beautiful clear water!.
Dont know why this popped up on my feed . but i work in Galveston and been talking about fishing. Think big brother is listening. 👽 i subscribed anyway. Great video.
@@BeachBomberFishing we'll it looks like im ganna have to do what big brother says. He's twisting my arm. Lol. When's the best time to hit the Galveston pier? 4 or 5 am?
Man, I just stumbled onto your youtube channel from a post in the Sea Isle Neighbors facebook group and this is the best content for fishing in Galveston I have ever come across. I can't wait to eat all this up and start catching better fish.
I visited Galveston for the first time couple of weeks ago. cannot wait to get back and do some fishing. I wish I could walk the fishing pier to see what going on there. great video!
Nah. When you cut me, i bleed brisket grease. i whistle the "Texas, Our Texas" in the sack. I call every softdrink, Coke. And if aint Cajun or Mexican im not eating it. But Floridas water and fishing is banging. Its like charter fishing, right in the surf. At least east of Destin.
This reminds me of my first time going to Rollover when I was like 12, hooking into fish almost every cast and caught a few Spanish and like 5 bull reds 40+ inches. Awesome video man. 🎣
Beach Bomber Fishing it was great man, Rollover has changed allot since but it will always be in my top spots for fishing just from the action and memories of it. I learned how to throw a bait caster that same day so it was one of a kind fishing trip. I’m happy to see you hook up with so much fish man, it’s days like that make up for the bomb days.
@@elyanpazmino4563 wait until the weather starts warming up, then go to the fishing pier in Galveston or anywhere at the beach. Use some shrimp as bait and you can catch a wide variety of fish
I lived at sanl luis by the water tower .Gets green there every light SE wind.4 tide days are great fishing. Especially if high tide hits early morning and late evening.Miss it ,great fun.YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOUR GOING TO CATCH👍.
When the mackerel are running you'll have a blast. I liked using shiner shad 24" steel leader on a cork. As soon as the cork settles WHAM it shoots down and away.
Nice,nice,nice,just subscribed --loved the video you posted on all your fishing arsenal.My son and I will be coming up to Galveston in a few days,looking forward to it.
I never have any luck like that when I go down to Galveston! Either they were biting the day before I got there or the day after I left! Congrats on y’all killing those dudes! Stay safe!
The fishing was amazing on Friday I hooked a mackerel almost every cast and the pompano were biting too, I hope Galveston gets some more green water this year
Me and my husband fished the 91st pier a few weeks ago and he caught so many sharks, including a bonnet head a hammer head like 3 black tip or whatever they call them lol. And like a 50lb stingray that worked him out! I have pics and videos I might post. We'll be going back sometime next week. Love your video!
Every year, at least as far as I've seen it { 45 +_ years } the water goes from muddy to murky green to green to clear green, right around mid-May, and lasts for about 3-5 days depending on weather. The longer it stays clear though, the water heats up and if no wind the water becomes almost stagnant and the fish disappear. But the action between green and clear green is top notch; ling can be caught off the beachfront! Ling is one of the top 3 fish created. If you've never tried it you're missing out.
Thank you for the info! I have always noticed that the first few days are the best, after that, it slows done big time. My goal is to eventually catch a ling from either the surf or the jetty.
@@BeachBomberFishing After a few days of calm freen water it goes clear, too hot for the fish, but yea, long ago on 61st st. pier, back in the late 80's. Wasn't big by any standards but he was big enough to legally keep. didn't know I even had it on my surf rod, but as soon as it saw the pier it said " ut-uh " then started dancing atop the water. Back then I lived on that pier, out there every weekend.
Love the video, thanks. I really couldn’t understand all what you were saying when you were explaining what lures you were using. It would be great if you could have added those to the description so we could find them. Appreciate the video, thank you!
Great job man! Nice video! Fun bringing home those kind of rewards isn’t it? Too bad you didn’t get any monster Kings but with a haul like you had , who cares right??? You should check out those Hogy 7” - 9” Pro Tail Eels in the bone and silver color. Been as effective as the Spoolteks but half the price.
Crocodile spoon two hops off the bottom catches EVERYTHING. Bass Tarpon Trout Red Spanish King Pompano Pin fish Jack Sail fish Tuna Bonita Lady fish Needle fish Blue fish Blue runners Baby sharks Ive sight fished baby sharks and is really fun! Cobia Feeling that thump while it’s falling is literally the greatest feeling in the world.
Water stayed clean and green for about a week and a half. Tore up the specs on July 27th in the surf. Went back the following weekend after water had been clear and flat for 3 days, had a few specs, but they tend to leave after water is clear for so long.
Man it s's living so far from open water. 580 miles after living in Seal Beach to live in Lubbock...I envy you Lucky Dawg. How do you cook them Macs? Out in LA we didn't eat Mackerel but I know they were different type of mac.you had a really great day. You You Lucky You :]
What lure were you catching them on? Can’t seem to find it online Xrap black. And the two lure that you showed right after the white xrap what lure(mullet and mackeral) are those?
Nice video!! Could you please shares the spec of your fishing gear? Such as line, leader, lure weight....etc. I am going to try 61st this year. Thanks!!
I am awaiting delivery of my new Okuma Surf 8K spinning reel. Your channel inspired me to buy this type of reel. Could you give me a couple of suggestions for a pier fishing rod to match up to this reel. Thanks in advance, Michael in Fort Lauderdale.
Rapala crap lure retail at about 16 dollars, pretty expensive and should be around 5/8 oz? I don’t know but it’s somewhere around that. Gotcha lures are pretty good if you don’t like spending that much money on lures.
Hey man, so I’m trying to figure out what leader material to use when using lures...like spoons or a rapala. I’ve got 40 lb fluor, 80lb mono, and some stainless steel wire ones with a connect swivel. I believe it was a Spanish mackerel that snipped my fluor one recent weekend and I lost my spoon. What should I use? I’m down in corpus when I fish usually so will the stainless steel wire be too visible?

Thanks man! I appreciate it!
Awesome action gotta love mackerel they are such hard fighters and good eating too
I completely agree! One of my favorite to catch and eat!
I love the sound of the seagulls in the background at some points. I was in Galveston not too long ago and it makes me wanna go back
I live near Galveston and I do recommend going
Ive caught tons of Spanish and specks in the surf with that black and silver rapala. Awesome video
One of the best lures for mackerel!

Hope the water will be this juicy tomorrow Sunday.
Nah man, water is brown af now.
Beach Bomber Fishing bummer :/
AWESOME VIDEO! WAS THAT A DIAMOND JIG?
Water stayed clean and green for about a week and a half.
Tore up the specs on July 27th in the surf. Went back the following weekend after water had been clear and flat for 3 days, had a few specs, but they tend to leave after water is clear for so long.
Yep you are right. I couldn't catch any specks till a week after that clear water.
The fish don't really leave. They just eat so much they wont bite. They will feed early and get out deep near the bottom when the sun gets up.
awesome video! just came across your channel and your content doesn't disappoint! btw which pier were you at?
Man it s's living so far from open water. 580 miles after living in Seal Beach to live in Lubbock...I envy you Lucky Dawg. How do you cook them Macs? Out in LA we didn't eat Mackerel but I know they were different type of mac.you had a really great day. You You Lucky You :]
That is wayyyyyyyyy too far to love from the beach! I usually just season them and bake them.
“Estos vatos ombre” 😂😂 great video bortha keep it up!
Here in Florida: OMG the water is actually murky for once!
Where are you ? I'm in Lighthouse Point just north of Lauderdale !
I’m in the St.Marks river south of Tallahassee
Awesome, I just subscribed.What’s your rod and reel on the white rod casting setup?
I used to catch mack's twice that size at the fort in bolivar. That was 25 yes ago though😂
Nice spoon at 3:00 lol
I’ll be out there today coming from dallas what I think about this weekend
Blake's a great help at the bait shop down in CC! He's always helping give pointers when needed
Awesome vid dude. What pier is that?? I need to bring my boy!
Nice one... 👍
I wonder what was your final weapon (bait)?
Solid Spanish brother
That's great! The water is 89° The water was extremely clear before Harvey.
I will be glad when I can say I m worn out from catching specks!😀 No such thing here in VA!
I drive from Dallas to SLP or High Island almost every other weekend from June to Oct.
Haven’t had that in a while
Are they running now I'm headed down thursday for the weekend
The water is currently green af. They will be running very soon.
Dont mind me asking ...Which pier in Galveston is that ? .. and Good catch !..can't wait to fish this year
I live in Houston....
Galveston is the best when the water is clear so nice get some good shark and stuff
What lure were you catching them on? Can’t seem to find it online Xrap black. And the two lure that you showed right after the white xrap what lure(mullet and mackeral) are those?
Light tackle and jumbo Mack’s are always fun.
Love it!
do you prefer the bug shiny spoons or the kastmaster bucktail ones in the surf?
What line you using on that spinning reel
30lb daiwa j braid
Where is the King?
It's an inside joke lol. Last year the game warden came to the pier and tried to give us tickets cus he thought they were kings and not spanish.
What was the mullet and mackerel lures called? Sorry I just couldn't make it out on the video. Good stuff though man, keep it up!
Bro I live here and have seen the water clear a handful of times in my life
What reels are you using @Beach Bomber Fishing?
Elite as fuck bro ..bad ass day of fishing ...keep them videos coming bro
D Lure @ 3:00 LMAO!
3:00 I have that as a keychain 😂 got it from China as a Christmas present 😅
Nice🎣🎣!! 😎
man i been on the Galveston beach like 3 times before we get on the cruise ships

When do these come around Galveston?????
Nice video, put a link up to the lures and gear.

Shoot a video how your baitcaster is set up, I still suck at casting mine. 👍
Or course you do

We’re you fishing at the 61st pier? Or which pier is that? Nice video bro 👍🏻 I just moved in to Houston and want to go for a nice fishing day
How heavy is your lure for mackerel fishing? In ounces or grams. Also, do you use a sinker with it to fish?
