Seasonal Activity Chart
Redfish
Texas City offers some outstanding redfish action, particularly in the marshy backwaters and along the edges of Galveston Bay. What makes this area special is the convergence of freshwater from the mainland and the rich saltwater of the Gulf, creating prime habitat. Fall is arguably the best time, as redfish school up in preparation for spawning and follow the mullet run. Spring can also be productive, especially around the flooded grass flats. A local tip: focus on areas with moving water, like cuts and channels, especially during tide changes. The Texas City Dike provides excellent access for both boaters and wade fishermen, but be mindful of the strong currents. Remember that redfish in this area are often sight-fished, so polarized sunglasses are a must. They can be a bit finicky, so vary your presentation until you find what they want.
