About Your Trip

We can take you speckled trout fishing in the bays (drift or wade fishing) or target redfish in the back lakes. Trip includes live bait, (artificial if desired for trophy Trout and Redfish) and all rods and reels. Whether you want to learn the art of finding fish, navigating Galveston Bay area complex or just having the fishing trip of a life time, our captains can handle it.

Bay fishing trips for trout, redfish and flounder on the Texas Gulf Coast. Throughout all the seasons, the bays in Galveston provide great fishing. The Galveston Bay Complex is made up of 3 main bays and it is surrounded by adjacent bayous, lakes and marshes. You have a variety of Galveston Bay Fishing Charters or trips to choose from. We pride ourselves on giving your guests an exciting and successful fishing experience!

Our captains are familiar with all 3 bay complexes and look at a variety of factors to determine the most productive fishing grounds for your trip. They will know whether to focus on the back lakes and estuaries of the bay area or target some of the deeper reefs in the Galveston bay. Whether you are targeting trophy Redfish or looking for a limit of Trout our captains have the knowledge and expertise to help you catch the fish.

The guides were nice. The view was great. Weather cooperated. The unfortunate part was that we had to catch our own bait. We weren’t ready to go fish. I had to ask several times “can we bait another rod so that I can fish?” Then I had to wait….
