Lol I will be posting some <a href="https://galveston-fishing.com">Galveston fishing</a> reports and maybe a few articles and videos on this blog from this point forward. I hope you enjoy the info. and continue to check it out from time to time. </span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span>Let me tell you a little bit about myself and then I will give you a fishing report. My name is Capt. Alan Pereyra and I have been a professional </span><a href="https://galveston-fishing.com">Galveston Fishing Guide</a><span> for the past 23 years. The name of my service is Topp Dogg Fishing Guides and my brother and I have run it since the year 2000.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> We have worked hard over the years to establish a successful fishing service and have been very blessed. We offer private guided <a href="https://galvestonsfishingcharters.com">Galveston fishing charters</a> and <a href="https://galvestonbayfishingteam.com">Galveston fishing trips </a> for up to 4 anglers on all the Galveston Bays. </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">We mainly target speckled trout, red fish and flounder, but we also catch some nice drum, sheepshead and seasonal species throughout the year. We fish 7 days a week except for certain holidays</span><span style="font-family: arial;">. You are welcome to give us a call anytime or check out our website.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> Ok as for fishing, it has been a strange year so far. Spring was very good, but this summer has been a little too inconsistent. The weather hasn't been the best for us and that is the main reason. It got very hot earlier than usual this year and the winds have not really laid. We have had a south west wind for over a month and that isn't good for us. It blows out the water and our water level or tides have been low.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> I have seen it all as a <a href="https://galvestonbayfishingteam.com">Galveston Bay fishing guide</a> in my 23 years and I am hoping for all this to change soon and get back to our traditional great summer time fishing. Mother nature has a way of working things out and I believe we just need to get some south east wind days so it can clean up the water.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> We have been using live croaker drifting over shell in West Bay for our best results. When the weather has cooperated, we have been catching some nice healthy speckled trout and a few red fish. The bite has been pretty good early in the morning and also here and there throughout the day we will find a good school of trout and wack them.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> Like I said we are having some good to great days on the good weather days and it's been a little slower on the windier days. I want to thank all my customers that have fished with us lately and I hope you enjoyed the report and the ones to follow. Until next time, I will see you on the water.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Thanks Capt.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Your <a href="http://www.galvestonbayfishingteam.com/">Galveston Bay Fishing Report</a> this week is simple. Good or great weather equals good or great fishing. Sounds simple, but it is so true. This time of the year the weather can determine if you have a good, great or bad day on the water. Spring can be tough at times because of all the fronts, high pressure & especially changes in wind direction. The good news is you can still box some nice fish if you know where to go according to all this issues. That's where your experience & knowledge comes in handy. Fishing isn't rocket science, but there is more skill involved in catching fish. As for our past 2 weeks, fishing was good to excellent. Last week before the big weather change, we were catching limits to near limits on most outings. At the beginning of this week the bite was better in the afternoon. I headed to a different area on Thursday & Matt & Mark caught over 45 trout. We ended up keeping 16. Lots of specks between 14 & 15 inches. The beginning of this week looks bad with high winds & rain in the forecast, but the end of the week & the weekend look good. We are still using live shrimp under a cork. Probably in early May we will start using live croaker. As for locations go, I have been hearing some good reports from all over. West Bay, East Bay & some shorelines are producing good trout. It is going to continue to better as we approach the summer months. I want to thank all our customers over the past 2 weeks. My brother & I have had some great trips & even better clients. Until next time, see you on the water.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I hope all of you had a happy Easter and great Spring Break. Even though the weather didn't cooperate too well with us as far as fishing is concerned, we still had some great trips & we had lots of fun. <a href="http://www.galvestonbayfishingteam.com/">Galveston Bay fishing</a> can be a bit inconsistent for bay outings during the Spring time. This is because the wind & rain seem to be a weekly occurrence. Like I always say in my <a href="http://www.galveston-fishing.com/">Galveston Bay fishing reports</a>, "Give us good weather & we can give you good fishing!" Now we still had some great trips, especially at the jetties. The north & south jetties have been producing limits of sheephead, redfish & drum. The jetties can be a great alternative this time of the year. As the weather settles down & the water warms up, the speckled trout will be more consistent. I look for a really good trout & redfish year this year. We had a mild winter & the rains we have been getting should school the specks up in certain areas of the bays. We are still using live shrimp under a MidCoast cork for our bay outings & live shrimp with a slip weight at the jetties. The key for fishing the jetties is getting close to the rocks & using the proper size weight according to the current. If you can't get close to the rocks, try a heavier weight & fish straight down to avoid getting hung up. When fishing is tough in the bays searching for specks, try to find the cleanest water & pop those corks. I want to thank all our clients that went out with us over Spring Break & this past week. Fishing only gets better & better as we approach summer, so if you would like to book or reserve a trip give me a call at 832-606-0844. Until next time, see you on the water.<br />

Steven took out a real good customer of ours Mark Marvin and his 2 friends Randy & Isreal. Mark has gone out with me & Steven on multiply occasions over the past couple of years. Needless to say he has had some excellent outings. Steven said they were the 1st boat to head out and at the 1st spot, they started catching some specks. All 3 of them were catching some trout & the action was good. They were catching some good keeper trout along with some throw backs. After a couple of hours of fishing, that spot got a bit crowded and </span></span><span class="text_exposed_show"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Steven made a move to another area. After trying 2 more spots and trying to catch some redfish, they decided to head in. The redfish weren't cooperating on this day. Again Mark had another great day on the water and Randy & Isreal really enjoyed it too. They ended up boxing 24 nice trout. They were using live shrimp under some MidCoast corks. Drifting open areas worked best.<br /> This week looks questionably for fishing. Some thunderstorms are forecasted for Tuesday & Wednesday. The wind forecast is not favorable either. Hopefully we can get out by Thursday or Friday. I will keep you informed. Well until next time, see you on the water.</span></span><br />

At the 1st spot Kyle & Doc stated catching some trout. They had to throw back some undersized one's but they ended up keeping 15 trout. They also had fun catching some redfish and a huge sheephead. Steven said they had a great time on the water. On Tuesday I took James & David out and they really had one of those days that anglers dream about. For the 1st couple of hours they were catching trout after trout. We had 5 specks that were over 21 inches. We left the trout biting after their 20 fish limit and went searching for some redfish. It took awhile, but Ja<span class="text_exposed_show">mes finally hooked into a 26 inch red and then after missing a few fish he caught a 27 inch red. After about 30 minute David got into the action catching a 29 inch red. After a couple more bites, we decided to headed in. On both trips we were using live shrimp under a cork. Seems like the more they would pop that cork, the more bites they would get. We are starting to get busy with calls & bookings, so if you would like to get out on the water please give us a call. The fishing from here on out will just get better as the water starts to warms up. Until next time, see you on the water.</span></span><br />

I haven't posted on this blog since Jan 2012. A lot of reasons why, but the bottom line is I will be posting on here on a regular basis. I know there are a lot of other social media sites now days and I post on them too, but if you want up to date fishing reports for the Galveston Bay area then you can follow this blog. I will be posting <a href="http://www.galvestonbayfishingteam.com/">Galveston Bay fishing</a> reports, pictures & videos on here. I am also in the process of hosting a video & eventually a TV show. I will post some 30-40 minute long shows with some of my clients & sponsors. That is in the works, but as far as fishing I will be posting from now on. I want to thank all of you in advance for following this blog & all the support & good words I get from my readers. I hope you enjoy all the post.
As far as a fishing report right now, we are going to begin out Spring time fishing. During March & April we start our Spring Break trips. We offer jetty trips for anglers that want that non stop action. We target redfish, drum & sheephead. We also offer our trout & redfish bay trips too, with the weather changes we just want to give our customers a good chance to catch lots of fish. If the weather cooperates trout fishing can be really good in March & April and the redfish, drum & sheephead can be abundant at the jetties.
My brother and I took his sons Joshua & Joseph out this past Saturday for a quick trip before we get really busy. The weather was great and the fishing was even better. They had a great time on the water. At the 1st spot we fished they caught lots of speckled trout. Between the 2 of them they caught over 25 trout. They were catching lots of specks between 14 & 15 inches, which we released. After the trout bite slowed, we went looking for some redfish. We fished a favorite redfish spot and they caught about 8 total reds with 2 of them being keepers. They also caught some sheephead & a few small drum. On the way back to the dock we decided to fish for trout again and they caught another 6-7 trout. It was a great day on the water with family! We were using live shrimp under a cork. The better fish were close to the bottom. If you would like to get out on the water and get in on all this action, please give me a call. Until next time, see you on the water.

My brother and I want to thank everyone that booked a trip with us in 2011. We hard some great trips and caught alot of fish. I keep hearing that the fish population in the Galveston Bays are down, yet year after year we keep catching more and more trout and reds. I'm looking forward towards another great and productive year in 2012. I haven't posted a fishing report lately because I had lower unit issues. It took longer than expected to get it replaced. I did get a few trips in before the new year with mixed results. The morning bite was real slow for us. The afternoon bite was much better, the trout seemed to be feeding when the water warmed up. I have been fishing up north, although West Bay has produced some good trout and reds. Using soft plastics and live shrimp under a cork has worked best. I will be sharing a booth with some other guides at Reliant starting on Friday and ending on next Sunday the 14th. If you get a chance come by and visit with us. I do have some openings for the next couple of weeks and we are running a winter time fishing special so give us a call if you want to get out and catch some fish! Until next time see you on the water.<br />

Sorry about that, for awhile I couldn't sign in to my account. My computer needed some work done and blogger made some changes that caused me to not be able to log in. Alls well now. As for fishing ... well it's been more about the winds than fishing. June is almost over and we are still experiencing 20 mph plus winds! I am use to some winds in March & April, but all of May and now into June. I have been fishing the Galveston Bay Complex for over 25 yrs. and I personally don't remember such a windy year. The wind has had such a bad affect on our bay system and it makes fishing really though. Earlier this week we were able to get out and catch some quality trout early in the morning. I am very impressed with the size of the speckled trout we are catching. The numbers are there when we have had quality weather, but the wind has caused us to stay near the shorelines and fish protected areas. There are some good fish out there in our bays especially around the mid bay reefs, but we can't fish them on a consistent basis. Good news is it can only get better! We are suppose to get some rain this week and the winds are going to lay down. (HOPEFULLY) I look forward to the change in weather and being able to fish instead of cancelling and rescheduling so many trips. I have some customers that have rescheduled 2-4 times. I want to thank all of you that have been patient. Well hopefully my next report will be full of good news and great reports. Here are some pictures of some of our recent trips. Until next time see, you on the water.<br />

Well mother nature sure has made up for that! It has been an extremely windy month of April and the past 2 weeks have been the worse. This past week we have had 20 mph plus winds almost every day. I have only ventured out 4 days during this period and we did catch some fish, but it was really bumpy out there. I'm a fishing guide that would rather be safe and try to reschedule a trip, than going out on every trip regardless of the weather conditions. I don't like to miss out on my scheduled trips, but is it really worth all the hassle? Safety and catching fish are my main concerns for my customers. I'm not trying to tell other guides how to run their business, but I do question how some guides will put your safety in jeopardy or just take your money for a fishing trip that they know you are not going to enjoy. Sure there are some days when we can get out there on windy days and catch some nice fish. I'm sure we all have had those days, but they are not that common. Most of the time when we have 20 mph plus windy days, the fishing all over suffers. What about protected shore lines? Yes they can be your best chance to catch fish and that is where I would go, but the fish have to be there for that to be successful. Not only are we getting these very windy days, we are in a serious drought. The schools of fish are really spread out right now. The bays are very salty and fish are everywhere. The concentrated schools of fish that we are usually on this time of the year just aren't there this year yet. Now all this being said as soon as these winds lay and we get some rain, things will change. I'm looking forward to that day! Well be safe out there and good luck fishing.<br />

Every year during Spring Break we seem to get blown off the water with 25-35 mph winds, but all past week the winds were good. We did have a couple of days of stiff wind, but we were able to fish every day. My brother and I really had very productive days on the water. Every trip produced over 25-75 fish caught and our customers were very pleased. These trips are great for the kids and families just wanting to catch some fish. We caught red fish, sheep head, puppy drum, bull drum, whiting, sand trout and gulf trout. Some clients went home with 5 gallon baggies full of fillets, while others didn't keep a fish. The beauty of these trips are people catch a lot fish and have a great time. I will still be offering these trips all of April and the way it is looking we will start targeting speckled trout in about 2 weeks. There have been some specks being caught around the bay system lately and it looks like this year is going to be a great one for speckled trout. Even though we caught a lot of quality trout last year, we caught more juvenile trout (14-16 in.) trout last year than we have in many years. Good news is those trout will be good quality 17-20 inch trout this year. Well this blog is now ranked on the Search Engines so hopefully I will start getting some responses from some of my readers. I have checked the views on this site and it is over 300 so if you feel like leaving a comment please do. Look for a post in about a week.</span><br />

Conv. Center this past week and again we had a very successful show. This time of the year is very exciting for us because we traditionally start fishing on a regular basis. The phone starts ringing and our regular customers along with new ones start booking fishing trips. The weather is still kinda tricky during March and April so we offer a special for $375.00. We go to the jetties or some near shore reefs and catch a variety of species. We don't target speckled trout, we catch red fish, sheep head, puppy drum, over sized drum, whiting, sand trout and bull croaker. These are great trips for kids, families and anglers who want an exciting day on the water. The schools of speckled trout usually move in around the beginning or middle of April and are much more consistent, so we will target them then. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">While I was at the Fishing Show there was a lot of talk about a gas ser-charge and the possible 5 trout limit all along the entire Texas Gulf Coast. Well I talked to a friend of mine that works for the TP&W Dept. and he said that at the last scope meeting in Austin in January, the decision was made against the proposed 5 trout limit for the upper coast. He told me that all the data on our speckled trout supports that they are in excellent shape and there is no need for a change in our daily limits. Of course that is great news for me and my business, but what is really important is knowing that our fishery is in such great condition! Regardless of your opinion or mine for or against a 5 tout limit, our speckled trout are not in decline and there is data supporting that they are actually in as good of shape as the 1990s. This is good for all of us and especially our youth.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now as far as the gas ser-charge goes, there are some mixed opinions about this subject. I wanted to get the opinions of other guides on this matter. What most of the guides are saying is that they are planning on charging a ser-charge and others are planning on just going up on there trip prices altogether. Now I would love to hear from some of you and get your opinion on this subject. My opinion is I think my brother and I will have to charge a gas ser-charge if the gas reaches $4.00 a gallon. I don't want to include a gas charge in my trip rates and just charge more across the board. If we charge a ser-charge then when the gas prices fall, we can stop the ser-charge and just charge our regular trip fees. Well I hope to hear from some of you, it is real easy to sign up for this blog. You don't have to worry about your privacy or any spam. Google only wants your e-mail add. and a password so they can verify that you are not a spammer, that you are of age (13) and a real human. (not a computer) I am going to start posting some fishing reports on here soon. Look foward to your comments.</span><br />

Depending on what type of trip you are planning to take, your captain’s experience and knowledge of the waters that you will be fishing should be at the top of your list. An experienced fishing guide will give you a better chance of having a safe, memorable and successful trip. An experienced and knowledgeable fishing guide will know where to fish according to the water and weather conditions and is usually on good schools of fish. Nothing can replace the countless hours and many days spent on the water that the best guides will have. Adjusting to the feeding patterns, knowing what the fish are feeding on, knowledge of the entire area, knowing the bays and lakes that you will be fishing are all very important factors to consistently catching fish. An experienced fishing guide has spent many days on the water in different weather conditions and will have all these very important qualities.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you have narrowed your choices down to a few experienced fishing guides, you then must consider a few other things. A fishing guide’s reputation is also very important. Just like in every profession you have some great, good and also bad guides. Most good fishing guides will work extremely hard to put you and your guest on fish, but there are some fishing guides out there that are just looking forward to the next booking. Do a little research on them, check their reviews on the Internet, look at their supporters and sponsors, and check out their website. Find out if he give back to the community, does he belong to organizations that help with fishing issues, does he give seminars, offer classes on fishing and does he work with the youth. Having a good long conversation with your fishing guide before you decide to book with him is something I highly suggest. You can tell a lot about someone from their personality. Ask a lot of questions. A fishing guide that is considered as one of the best in his region has surely earned his good reputation through a lot of hard work and doing things right over the years.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course we all want the best deal out there. The old saying "you get what you pay for" couldn't be truer with this industry. Most all the captains in their region usually charge around the same price for a fishing trip. You should be aware of the guides and fishing services that are charging a lot less for their service. There is probably a reason why they are charging less and undercutting other fishing guide’s prices. Don't make the mistake that many other anglers do by sacrificing your fishing experience to save a little extra money. Also pay attention to how many hours you are receiving for your fishing trip. Sometimes the cheaper trip is also less hours on the water. All in all most fishing guides out there are professional and courteous and will treat you right. Just take a little time to research your guide before you book your fishing trip and choose the right guide for your fishing needs. Try to hire a fishing guide that really cares about fishing and one that gives that little extra something to his clients, usually your gut feeling is right !</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br />

<a href="http://www.galvestonbayfishingteam.com/"><u><span style="color: blue;"><strong>Galveston Bay Fishing Charters</strong></span></u></a>Capt. Alanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10180892240720421738noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4473221352054459753.post-76132519192598183072011-01-31T20:31:00.000-08:002011-02-20T20:02:22.505-08:00New Speckled Trout Daily Bag Limit Proposal<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I said, I write articles from time to time and here's one that I thought would be perfect for my first blog on here. I'm a fishing guide so this subject really is important to me. In 2007 the daily speckled trout limit was reduced from 10 specks to 5 specks south of the Land Cut along the Texas Gulf Coast. The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department determined after eight years of research that there was a steady decline in the population of mid-size speckled trout from south of Port Mansfield. State biologist believe the decline was from an increase in fishing pressure and some slight over-harvesting by anglers. The decline was exclusive to speckled trout, no other fish species from south of Port Mansfield seemed to have any issues with a decline in population. Four years later there are some serious discussions of changing the daily bag limit for speckled trout all along the Texas Gulf Coast to 5 speckled trout per day. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My obvious question here is, is a lower bag limit really needed? I</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">f the answer is yes, then what should the daily limit be? According to most research done by the TP&W Dept. the mid to upper Texas coast is in good shape as far as speckled trout and overall species is concerned. The TP&W Dept. has scheduled a series of scoping meetings in Austin Texas on January 26th & 27th 2011 to outline any problems and discuss a range of management solutions. The TP&W Dept. will meet and will most likely reveal projected outcomes of any and all rule changes in these meetings. The good news for us is if a change is proposed, the rule would be posted on the Texas Register. This means that the public will be able to voice their opinions and make comments. If there is a major support in favor of change, this could lead to a vote in Austin during the March 31st commissions meeting. There could be no vote and no rule change if the public response is to just leave the rule as is.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It might be important to you to know how our fish population is researched and how outcomes are acquired. Statewide speckled trout abundance is gauged by spring gill nets and creel nets conducted by state coastal fisheries staff. According to their latest results speckled trout has held fairly steady over the past decade. In some recent years, rates of specks have been higher in some bay systems since the standardized surveys began in the 1970s. There has been a slight decline over the past couple of years. The surprising data is that the gill net catch rate of trout is still higher than it was for much of the 1980s and 1990s. According to the coastal fisheries staff, the numbers of speckled trout have not declined much over the past decade. Overall the fish population including speckled trout along the Texas Gulf Coast is steady, with some years better than others. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Regardless if you are in favor of a change or not, this is a very important matter if you are a Texas saltwater fishermen. This proposed rule change affects all gulf coast fishermen. I'm a fishing guide and I make my living catching speckled trout. What kind of an affect will this have on my business if this rule becomes law? On the other hand I understand that we have to think about our future fishery. My problem with all this is there are some biologists that believe a change is needed to assure that the trout population will prosper for years to come and others that say no change is need. After four years of a 5 trout limit regulation on the lower gulf coast, there are still mixed reviews. Again some say it hasn't changed the trout population at all while others say it as helped. I guess it all comes down to how we want to manage our fishery. There is a good chance that no rule will be proposed, but if it does go to a vote and passes it will go into effect September 1st 2001. I welcome your comments and opinions.</span></div><br />
