About Your Trip

Located on the border of Texas and Louisiana, Sabine Lake is known for its diverse and abundant marine life, making it the perfect destination for both novice and experienced anglers. Despite the name, it's not exactly a lake at all, but a bay with an extremely narrow mouth that connects it to the larger Gulf of Mexico. This separation makes it a perfect habitat for tons of inshore gamefish, including Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and other species.

On this charter, you'll have the opportunity to chase these fish on light tackle, which is a blast for anglers of all levels! Captain Dale is a seasoned pro with years of experience on the water, and he knows all the best spots to find the fish.

Dale tailors his trips to your experience level and preferences, so whether you're an experienced angler looking to hone your skills or a novice just learning the ropes, he has a perfect trip for everyone. Plus, he provides all the necessary equipment, including rods, reels, and bait, so all you need to bring is a valid fishing license and a desire to catch some fish.

Dale runs his charters on his 20' Key West center console, which is an ideal vessel with a shallow draft for fishing Sabine Lake.
Get out there for a fun and unforgettable day on the water with Captain Dale! We guarantee you'll leave with plenty of stories to tell and memories to last a lifetime—plus a cooler full of fish!

What the best fishing experience ever! Dale was great! We laughed and made jokes as if we had know each other for years. He even let us stay a little longer since it was after the storm and it changes the fishing a bit. It was my dad's first time on a charter, and he loved it! Highly recommend!

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!!!
