Heading down to Galveston. Any good surf fishing in January-March period?
Bull reds, I use to catch them by San Luis Pass during the winter months. Some of the best runs was right before a cold front came through. Surf fishing near the Key Largo area about 10 miles pass the San Luis Pass bridge is one of my best surf fishing spots when I get back down that way. Theres a nice size oyster reef running through that area. Try to get some finger mullet for bait. 40yr exp

Cold… try to make it on a not so breezy day. Take firewood with you. Best part is, no seaweed or mosquito’s. Hard to find bait in the water. Cast or kayak your bait past second or third sandbar, or however far your reels will let you. Big bull reds..
Light tackle for specs might land a few keepers between first and second bar in clear water.
Good luck.
