  I caught it on the west end of Galveston a few miles from San Luis pass. But the location is hit or miss depending on the conditions. I've been skunked at this ...more spot before. But if you fish the right conditions anywhere along Galveston, you'll have more luck. Good conditions meaning a flat surf preferably with a high tide.

  Mind me asking, where along the beach? We were in Galveston a couple weeks ago, staying at Dellanera RV park. I was doing ok from the surf there, but nothing this ...more big.
