Head out of Galveston for a phenomenal day out on the water with Captain Reggie! On this trip, you'll drift-fish over shelves, underwater structure, and secret "honey holes" that Captain Reggie has identified over his many years fishing the Galveston area. Depending on your goals for the day, you can target Speckled Trout, Redfish, Flounder and Sheepshead—to name just a few. This trip is also a great chance to go for a "Texas Grand Slam"...

About Your Trip

Head out of Galveston for a phenomenal day out on the water with Captain Reggie! On this trip, you'll drift-fish over shelves, underwater structure, and secret "honey holes" that Captain Reggie has identified over his many years fishing the Galveston area. Depending on your goals for the day, you can target Speckled Trout, Redfish, Flounder and Sheepshead—to name just a few. This trip is also a great chance to go for a "Texas Grand Slam" or a "Texas Triple" by catching a Redfish, a Trout, and a Flounder in one day!

No matter which species you choose to pursue, Captain Reggie is a pleasure to share a boat with. He's happy to work with box experts and beginners alike, and loves showing "greenhorns" the wonders of saltwater fishing. His knowledge of the Galveston waterways makes him a great captain and an even better teacher, for beginners to experienced anglers!

Captain Reggie provides all the rods, reels, tackle, and bait you could possibly need for a successful day slaying the fish. All you need to do is meet Captain Reggie at the dock. Please remember your sun protection, your cooler with snacks and drinks, and your Texas Fishing License. Captain Reggie will take it from there and ensure you have a fantastic day on the water!

5 stars for sure. Reggie was a pro. He put us on fish even when the weather messed up the conditions. I’d recommend Captain Reggie to anyone looking for a great fishing experience.

Captain was great. We caught lots of trout. Wish we would had fished for different types. Also wish it would had been stated that we had to buy bait. Other than that we had a great time.

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hi Kevin - we have gone ahead and updated the trip listing to reflect the additional charge for live bait. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Captain Reggie has over 30 years of experience and I am confident that he kept y'all on trout if they were biting, but I do hope you will consider coming out with us again so we can get you on some different species!

Reggie was great with the kids, but we only fished one area. Took us about 5 mins from the boat dock and stayed at a causeway the entire time. Caught 3 fish. When we moved, we only traveled about 50 yards to the next spot. Never had that experience when paying for a guided trip.

Response from Captain Experiences:
Hi Ralph, I'm sorry to hear about this experience. Captain Reggie always works hard to stay on top of the fish, but it sounds like you were looking to move around a bit. We hope that you'll consider giving it another shot. Please give us a call so we can set you and your family up on another trip!

The fishing trip was outstanding and we had fun. We maxed out our speckled trout catch. Reggie showed us how to use reels, set hook, etc. When we got a bite my son and I had a great time hoping to bring in a fish. Reggie is courteous, polite, and helpful. Reggie was a great Captain.

Captain Reggie was a very good guide. He was very professional and was able to accommodate us on short notice. It was very windy with choppy waters, but he was still able to take us to a great location that was out of the wind. Within minutes we had caught our first fish. I highly recommend him as a guide. We had a great experience!

My first guided fishing trip in 25 years and first for my two grandsons. Captain Reggie provided an experience that I and my grandkids loved. I learned more about fishing technique, how to find fish and how to clean fish than from any book or article I’d ever read. Great experience !
