Im just fishing for fun right now, but other than using a popping cork or just fishing on the bottom I would like to know what I can use when fishing in galveston bay. I tried using my spinning lure, neon pink top lure, and speck killer and havent had any luck at all.

From what I have read, Galv Bay is much like most of the coastal waters here in Louisiana. The best time to use your spinner is in the early morning and late evening. Other wise you are stuck with your bottom rig or popping cork. Fish as close to shore as you can. Also throw into small cuts and along the grass or weed edges. Try to use bright colors on over cast days and dark colors on sunny days. Here is a good little link. Never mind that it is a product review. Just read it for the info on how to fish spinners.

Yea, I fish Galv. alot too. Its a hard fish. I have the majority of luck wade-fishing. I like to stick to D.O.A. Shrimp either free-floating along the bottom in the sand with no weights or as you said with a popping cork. Gold speckled and glow-in-the-dark are best
Fish-On!

spinners don’t really last in saltwater unless the wire is stainless but you are probably fishing to close to the top or the wrong direction. always fish upstream cast as far as you can take up the slack upon lures entry and count as it sinks one two three and begin the retrieve you have to really carnk to get the line caught up and on the reel with the slack gone so the spinners start to spin though and that is hard. don’t use the spinners use lead heads either with bucktails or swim baits (plastics) cast them up stream (into the current caused by the moving tide) and let them sink to the bottom and slowly bring them back by bouncing the bottom as fast as the water is moving cast to all the points on a clock and if no bites change colors if no bites go to a new location and start all over.
