(S3 Ep40) Bank Fishing Galveston Texas 

Good stuff!💪🎣 Thanks alot for the shout out enjoy the lures and tackle.I hope you catch some good ones on them👍😁I also made the screw lock weighted hooks.

Hey Sarge, second time I've heard you comment on pin fish, so I though I'd bloviate on what a guide in Rock Port told me. He didn't mention spec's but he did say the Pin's and Red's are natural enemies. When the Red's make out a clear spot to spawn in, the Pin's come in to eat their eggs. He would slightly cut the end of the tail and hook them right behind the dorsal fin. That's all I know and sticking to it.

Oh man. Im digging the under armour slippers. Lol. And that darn poopin perch. Hilairious. Love the channel. Every video gets better and better. Great job. Keep it up.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, and Thank You for a very Informative Video! I am a BOI and learned a few things about artificial baits from your video. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, and may you catch your limit every time you go out! Semper Fi ! ! !

Great video bro.. Made me grin to see I'm not the only one who doesn't have the best of luck on that side of Galveston. I always seem to have better luck from the state park on down to surfside Jetty. That's why I usually find a little pocket beach in Jamaica.

Cool 👍, back in the Old Miami (60-70), we used to do the same thing in the Key's. We called it a drop line, and as one of 13 siblings, we called it dinner too. ✌️

Those piggy perches are evil. they make me say the bad words every time they poke me, but it's a great video Mark. thanks for sharing.

Well said! I usually bring bread with me so all the bait will feast and I can cast and catch with my net

Thank you for serving. Have been enjoying your kayak vids!

This is why shore fishing has all but taken me out of fishing until I can afford a kayak. Getting skunked or getting one bite every few hours hurts after a while.

Thank you for your service brother 🤝 great videos as well man.

Semper Fi Brother! I enjoy your channel and content. I’m up in Pearland, so I’ll try to find some of the locations where you are successful. Thank you!

Try using a mesh laundry bag with some jack mackerel inside. Boat ramps with grass around them or the marsh. You can get plenty of bait. You can find these items at dollar stores. I live by dollar tree and they have it there.

Not beginners luck with the trout. Most people don't know but you can catch trout and other fish from those rock groins during the winter. Enjoyed the video! You are a great dad!

Thank you for your service and video. God Bless you and yours.

I was just there the day after Christmas it was awesome. I didn't catch much but was very fun. .

Bro, first 5 seconds of the video I thought that dude is a salty Marine 😂 semper fi brother! Going to Galveston for a week in June. Would love to meetup one of those days.

Minimum size for speckled trout is 15". I think you were a bit shy. Where you started used to be great for trout, reds and flounder but wade fishing and not bank fishing. Back fifty years ago I could catch fifty or more trout in a morning and seine up all the small shrimp I needed for a days fishing. Unfortunately with the shrimp boats, oyster boats and intense fishing pressure the fishing is only perhaps one tenth of what it used to be. I had a friend who would go to the causeway and put his boat in there in the evening after work. Go a few hundred yards from there and catch half a dozen big trout in no time at all and then head back home. The very best fishing was the original pier near the north jetty that kept washing away during hurricanes. You could catch eight and nine pound trout off that pier and a couple of hundred pounds of gafftop at night (on cut eel). The best I did was on speckled trout at night under a full moon using cut ribbon fish for bait.

I catch reds and trout at that spot on the other side of the bridge right under the overpass 61st street!!!

That’s how tough marines are! He said he had been throwing that cast net FOREVER!!! And he was just now getting tired. Respect

Looks like Offatts Bayou! I haven't fished that spot in a while. It can actually be good for flounder around that time of year.

thanks for your time

Just found this video. Thank you for your service.

Good o bank fishing. I had luck with catching bait right after the bayou vista exit. There’s a lil bridge with current running thru it. Had got shrimp mullet n shad there. There’s rocks n oyster so gotta pull the net up pretty quick

New subscriber will be moving to the freeport area in a couple months cant wait to get out there and fish

It's all always hard to catch any fish down there when the Biker rally is going on.😬

Nice vid! Can't wait to get back out there to catch some flounder!

Good morning Devildog...Today were doing that Veteran Giveaway 3Day Guided Hunting Trip for this weekend.

What you call a piggie perch we call pinfish in Mississippi and they are great baits for reds and specs

Daaaaaaaaamn! Nice set up! Everything from the rod sleeves and your truck! Do you have a video on how you put all that together? Good fishing brother! Salutations from So Cal baby!

At 8:45 that’s my spot I always go to lol I wish I could’ve went when you were out there !

There's no feeeesh!! Jk, great video sir. I want to hit the smiley faced island off the end of Tiki Island in my kayak soon. Thank you for your service and your videos!

Happy birthday Devil Dog!!

Big shout out from Sarasota and good video bro

That was a good fishing video. We were at Moses Lake this past weekend.

Bank fishing in a nut shell.

Happy Birthday Marine!

Nice fish great vid! Thanks for sharing!

Mark, I want to try to fish there? Wherr exactly is this location at the seawall? Can you fish on all the rocks along seawall blvd?

Great videos just found you. Vacationing at surfside next month and was wondering if you had a suggestion for rod length/ action for fishing both the jetties and possibly on the beach as well?

Good content, fishing with your son. With bank fishing, live or dead bait would have been the ticket.

And that's why you now have a kayak. 😁

I never had any luck there on 61 street 👍

Hermit crabs and shrimp seem to be the best baits for those sheepshead.

Take you a can of cheap catfood, mix it with sand in a bucket with a spoon, sling it out in front of you just before you throw that net. Scoreboard!!!

What’s the reel your using?

Y'all need to come to New Mexico and fish we got some great species here no oceans but big lakes

Thats bait fishing for me. Dont know what you where trying to catch with the net.. Seems like your not equip for big fish such as bullreds. Big mullet, croaker, and sand trout is the cut bait of choice for bank fishing.

Hey cool video man! 👍🏻

Hi, I'm one of your subscribers and I enjoy your videos. I live in Houston too. But it would be much more helpful if you mention what spots and locations you're fishing at everytime you move location to location. Your title only says Galveston Banks Thanks,

I’m surprised you’re not targeting flounder since the run is on

What editing program do you use Mark? Thanks in advance .

have you kayaked those marshes around bayou vista with any success?

Semper Fi I hope to buy a kayak soon. I am from Houston. I just subscribed.

Semper Fi brother.

Liked. Curtis Mayfield

Watching!!

Semper Fi my brother I just subscribed to your channel!!

Nice Video! I like your rack setup on the back of your truck. It looks like it can extend out to hold different size kayaks. Did you have that custom made at a specialty shop?

Hi Mark..it’s been awhile I haven’t been able to catch up with you

Which lure is the sheepshead killer?

try catching some mullet at the boat ramp by bubbas bait shop

Nice fish

Thumbs up bud.

Do you need a fishing license to bank fish in Galveston?

Nice cast net where did you get it from
