About Your Trip

Come have some serious fun and explore some of the most prolific waters in the area with Captain Henry!

Captain Henry hotspots in SPI have been hitting, so make sure to listen closely to his tips and tricks.

On these 6 or 8-hour state water offshore trips, you can expect to target Kings, Blackfin, Bonito and Red Snapper (when in season), and many more species! When Red Snapper is in season, Captain Henry has some special spots way up the coast that hold some big boy Red Snapper within the State Water line!

You will be fishing aboard Captain Henry’s 30-foot center console powered by twin 300 HP Mercury Verado engines. It can accommodate up to 6 anglers, has a private toilet, spearfishing and snorkeling equipment, and a livewell. A first mate will also be on board to help you when you need it.

Don’t forget to bring a valid Texas Fishing License (which you can purchase online), a hat, sunscreen, some food and drinks for the day, and an ice box to take home your day’s catch. Henry will provide all rods, reels, tackle, and lures. For an additional fee, he will clean and fillet your day’s catch.

Get ready for an action-packed day on the water with Captain Henry!

Captain Henry has a true passion for the sport of fishing and everything to do with the Texas coast. He proudly worked for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department while volunteering at the Coastal Fishery Department. During that time he gained invaluable knowledge about how coastal fish species travel, eat and spawn. It's safe to say his volunteer work set him up to be a top tier guide!

Captain Henry was great with our novice kids ages 16, 11 and 8, and they all had a blast. He was patient, informative, helpful and accommodated my son when he started getting nauseous. If a spot wasn’t working, he would move to another location. The 30’ Triton easily accommodated five passengers. Thank you for taking us out!

Had a great time and caught lots of fish. Captain Henry took the time to make sure we were comfortable with the equipment and his mate couldn’t have been more helpful or friendly.

The captain was great and well knowledgeable. The trip was perfect other then our first trip being canceled due to weather. But this captain was welling to take us out. Luckily it didn't rain! The over cast clouds was great! Only reason I'm giving a 4 star not a 5 star is cause we weren't able to go out of the marina cause of the weather.

Today myself and son went out on a private fishing trip on the bay and it was fantastic. I loved being out on the water and got to catch a large variety of fish. The weather was good and the captain was even better. Hurry up and book your trip today. We will definitely be back!

Fun, but not great. It was supposed to be offshore but it wasn't. The boat said it was equipped with a bathroom, it was not. After tipping for a total of $725 the two black drum we caught better be pretty tasty.
