This massive Hammerhead Shark was caught 20 miles Offshore out of Galveston. The pure rush of reeling in one of these monsters is no joke.

Winter patterns are holding great, lots of black drum and redfish holding close to shorelines. Most catches have been caught on shrimp. We've had several trips this past weekend that have caught limits!

Amazing experience! Captain Chad drove 50 miles to the next city just so we’d have good live bait for our trip. With that being said we caught 40 fish and 20 keepers. Even managed to get on some Reds in late January weather. We will definitely be booking another trip with Captain “Chappy”. If you’re looking to catch fish in a relaxed setting with someone who knows there stuff, look No Further.

Captain Jordan was an excellent captain. With a fishing tournament going on, we caught about twice the fish as any of them. For Matagorda Bay fishing, he knows where the fish hit. Also a pleasure to work with.
