About Your Trip

Captain Zach has fished professionally in Galveston for over 8 years. Zach is especially good with working with young and beginner anglers. Capt Zach's great sense of humor and ability to always find the fish is what makes him a damn good captain for fish with! If you are a novice or experienced angler, Capt Zach can find fish and create the fishing experience you are looking for. Weather it's trophy Speckled Trout, Bull Reds or Sharks, you will always have a blast fishing with him. Capt Zach likes to let the more experienced fishermen catch giant fish on light tackle. Nothing like catching Bull Reds, Jack Cravelle and Sharks on light tackle!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

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

Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

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.
