Climb aboard with Captain Kevin and get ready for an action-packed day of fishing in Corpus Christi, Texas!

trip description for Epic Jetty Trip - 21' Mako in Galveston

Climb aboard with Captain Meghan and explore the Jetties of Galveston Bay on her 21’ Mako! These charters are great for any level of fisherman, and especially for families with children. However, you must be at least five years old to ride this ride! On this trip, you'll target classic Texas sportfish, including Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, and even Sharks! Once you're off the dock, you'll head 5-6 miles out into the Gulf of Mexico, fishing both the North and South Jetties. These jetties are a perfect place for fish to congregate, so you can expect tons of rod-bending action once you're out there. Captain Meghan's 21' Mako center console can accommodate up to 6 people, so bring some friends! She'll provide all the gear you need, so all you need to show up with is a Texas Saltwater Fishing License, some food and drinks, and an ice box for your catch! Finally, you'll be able to purchase live bait for an additional fee. Captain Meghan and her crew will also clean and fillet your fish for you. We hope you have a good recipe for fish tacos!

What types of redfish fishing charters are common in Texas?

Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for redfish in Texas as well as inshore fishing, flats fishing, and jetty fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Texas are light tackle fishing, artificial lure fishing, and live bait fishing but drift fishing and bottom fishing are popular as well.

How much do Texas redfish fishing charters cost?

Prices for redfish in Texas can range anywhere from about $500 to $1,100, but the average price for a half day trip for redfish in Texas is $664. The average price for a full day trip for redfish in Texas is $1,055.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for redfish fishing in Texas?

The most popular season for redfish fishing in Texas is summer, and most anglers book their trips 13 days in advance.

Do I need a Texas fishing license for redfish and what are the bag limits for redfish in Texas?

    Brent did a great job for our group of 6. It was a large crowd, but he had a great set up for us and we enjoyed getting to know him. Brent is easy to talk to and made our experience very memorable. We caught a lot of fish and will be back soon! Thanks for the trip! The Captain Experiences website was super easy. This was our first experience with it, and it worked out great!

    The trip with Captain Izzy on 7/20 was outstanding. I could have not picked a better guide for my experience. Captain Izzy was a pleasure to fish with, very knowledgeable and will without a doubt book a trip with him again the next time I’m in the Galveston area. Captain Izzy is very professional, the boat was immaculate, the gear provided was top notch. I only have exceptionally good words to say about my trip with him. I look forward to fishing with him again. Thank you Captain Izzy for an outstanding morning.

    Mike knew the bay very well and did his best to put us on fish. I only had two issues with the trip. It might just be his personality, but I found him to be condescending when I asked questions. I also think he fishes too much. It was like we paid to take him fishing.

    Rick M. with Mike K. of South Padre Island, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    James did an excellent job. The fishing was very slow during the day but he kept us moving in an effort to find them which we eventually did. Both of us ended the day with our limits. Easy to talk too. Very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend him to anyone and I’m planing to go with him again next time.

    This trip was so fun, we caught snapper, gafftop, and 2 stingrays, and one was a monster. Andrew knew where to go and his boat was very nice, he’s the best hype man too, always excited when a fish is on! Jeff was the bomb. He made sure we always had our lines ready and in the water and helped us pull up them Rays when our arms were wore out!

    Ladies loved the trip and caught big fish. One trout was 24" and was released due to conservation rules. One of our reds needed a tag to keep. Highly recommend Alana as a fun and knowledgeable fishing guide in SPI.

    Rick J. with Alana S. of Port Isabel, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Dusty was a very good guide to fish with. He took us out on a last minute notice and we had a hard time finding the fish but he wouldnt leave until he put us on some fish and we limited out. Very respectful and fun to be around. I give him a 10 out of 10. I would recommend his services to anyone.

    Robert C. with Dusty M. of Corpus Christi, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Great captain, great fishing! We had experienced and inexperienced fishermen on the trip. Captain Alex took the time to teach and mentor the less experienced while supporting our more skilled fishermen. Just a great trip all the way around. We will most definitely be back for more. Thanks Alex, Semper Fi!

    Joseph R. with Alex C. of Port Aransas, Texas

    Captain Dale was knowledgeable, educational, patient, and considerate. Despite it being July and Hurricane Beryl a couple of days out he was able to find some great fishing spots! Safety was also a top concern. Recommend him 10 out of 10!!!

    Do you want to go fishing or catching? That is a question Captain Jeremiah will definitely answer for you with a resounding "We're going Catching!". He and his boat, The Classic, are based out of Port Isabel where Captain Jeremiah grew up and acquired the skill, knowledge and love for fishing. You might think that you are just going fishing, I mean catching; however, with Captain Jeremiah, you get a lesson on the past, present and future of Laguna Madre, Long Island, Brownsville Ship Channel and the surrounding area, as well as, an occasional sea turtle, shark and dolphins sightings. But let's talk about why are here.....Fish! Captain Jeremiah knows just the right areas to hit and will put you right on top of those Big Reds and then it's time to work it hard. The four of us limited out in the slot range in about three hours, but we were having a blast catching and releasing those that didn't meet the slot requirement....sometimes four hooked at the same time. The last hour, before we headed back to port, was spent trolling which produced a nice Spanish Mackerel and a pretty large Ling. Trust me, next time I go out on a Fishing Charter, it will be with Captain Jeremiah on his Catching Charter!

    Brent was the real deal. It put us on the fish and we made our limit by 8am and was able to just catch and release the rest of the morning. He is very knowledgeable about the best fishing holes. We got to see dolphins, stingrays, and turtles and he was a wealth of knowledge. I strongly recommend Brent and I hear is hunting/fishing combo is to die for. Can’t go wrong here!

    Sean M. with Brent H. of Rockport, Texas

    Amazing morning with Charles. He knew exactly where to go. How to hook the fish and was Johnny on the spot on service. Already setting the next fishing adventure with Charles!
