About Your Trip

Head out for an unforgettable fishing adventure with Captain Charles in Galveston, Texas! With a deep love for the sea and extensive knowledge of the best fishing spots, Captain Charles offers a day filled with live bait, light tackle gear, and lasting memories. Step aboard his meticulously maintained 24 ft Kenner bay boat, powered by a powerful 250hp Suzuki engine, and explore the sparkling waters of Galveston Bay. Whether you prefer live bait or artificial lures, Captain Charles has you covered with a well-equipped tackle box.

Trips typically depart from Galveston Bait and Tackle shop for easy access to prime fishing locations, but when the fish are calling from the north, he'll head to Buddy's Marina. While live bait incurs an additional fee, everything else is included in the trip price, making it a hassle-free experience. Book your adventure today for a fantastic day of fishing and create memories that will last a lifetime!

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
