About Your Trip

You havent fished Galveston till you've fished for Sharks with Captain Jennifer! Sharks are famously tough, and are an absolute blast to fight on hook and line.

To catch Sharks, you'll typically drop cut bait down to the bottom, where Sharks like to hunt for prey. Once one of these big predators takes the bait, you're in the fight of your life! Even small Sharks punch above their weight, and big ones can take half
an hour or more to get over the rail! Thankfully, you'll have Captain Jennifer's steady hand and expertise to help you catch a trophy!

You'll be fishing aboard a sleek 26' Mako center console, powered by twin Yamaha engines. She has plenty of space for up to six guests, so bring friends and folks! Captain Jennifer will provide everything you need for a blue-ribbon trip, including rods, reels, and tackle. All you need to bring is sunscreen and your Texas Saltwater Fishing Licenses!

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass.

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.
Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
