Freeport Fishing Charter Overview

Looking for a serene fishing experience in a tranquil town? Look no further than Freeport, Texas, where you can embark on a fishing charter and explore the Brazos River, wildlife refuges, and the Gulf of Mexico all in one day. With a variety of fishing grounds available, you can tailor your adventure to the specific fish you're after, whether it's Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Snapper, Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Marlin, or more.

Depending on your desired time on the water and fishing ambitions, you can choose between half-day trips to inshore waters and marshes, or full-day trips to the deep blue. Fishing charters are readily available along the Old Brazos River, Oyster Creek, and Surfside, so you can easily find the perfect one for your needs.

It's important to note that all individuals aged 17 or older must purchase a fishing license, regardless of whether they're booking a charter or fishing on their own.

Freeport Inshore Fishing Charters

The Brazos River gives Freeport fishing boats access to incredible backcountry and bay fishing. To the east lies Christmas Bay, and further up the coast, West Bay and Galveston Bay. To the southwest, true backcountry fishing awaits in Saint Bernard Wildlife Refuge and East Matagorda Bay.

These waters are known for producing big fish. In September massive Redfish are caught during their spawn. East Matagorda Bay is famous for being Speckled Trout haven. If you want to get in on the Speckled Trout, the bite on on fire in January. The action doesn't stop there though. Gulf Flounder, Sheepshead, Jack Crevalle and other inshore species are ready to fight.

Deep Sea Fishing Charters in Freeport

Leaving land behind and heading out to sea means shots at a slew of different species. In nearshore artificial reefs and wrecks, Red Snapper reign supreme. One of the best tasting fish in the sea, these formidable fighters have a special season to prevent overfishing.

The nearshore fun continues with big Cobia, a variety of grouper and snapper variants, and Amberjack. The water gets deep quick, so getting to the prime fishing waters is just a short boat ride away.

Further offshore, Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna, Sailfish, Swordfish, and the occasional Marlin can be caught. Catching these pelagic monsters usually happens where the continental shelf ends and the water gets very deep, so strap in for a long boat ride out to the best fishing grounds in the gulf.

    We had an amazing time. Rodney and Ethan were not only very helpful and professional, they were friendly and made the trip enjoyable. When the fish we were catching were too small to keep Rodney took us to another spot where we caught larger fish and 3 sharks! I cannot wait to come back. Maybe this will be a yearly trip for us from now on. Great Captain and First Mate.

    Tanesha M. with Rodney C. of Freeport, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    The guide was not inviting. He never introduced himself and had no concern for our well being. We had two guests who were sea sick and he never showed any concern. While he did finally agree to bring them back to shore, his lack of respect for us as customers and human beings was not professional.
