There’s one name you need to remember if you’re looking for an inshore and offshore fishing paradise – Galveston! Galveston Fish Commander is your golden ticket to step into some amazing angling action. Your guide Captain Shawn Warren has experience of guiding fishing trips for both novices and experienced anglers. He’s won over 35 fishing tournaments and has all the knowledge you’ll need for a successful day on the water.

Capt. Shawn welcomes you aboard his 26’ Robalo center console. The boat accommodates up to 6 guests, so bring your family or friends along. The minimum age for kids is 3 and life vests are provided in all sizes. The boat is powered by twin 250 HP Suzuki engines, so it won’t take long until you reach your fishing spot.

You can set out on fishing trips for Tarpon and Shark, or go on a hunt for giant “Bull” Redfish. This area also offers year-round opportunities for Speckled Trout and Flounder. There’s a variety of Shark species you can target here, including Tiger, Bull, Blacktip, and Hammerhead.

The captain will provide you with Shimano fishing equipment and lures. You’ll need to purchase your fishing license before the trip and also bring snacks and drinks for the day. Live bait is charged extra when you’re targeting Trout and Redfish. If you want to keep the catch, don’t forget to bring your cooler so you can keep the fish fresh.

Galveston Fish Commander takes pride in repeat guests on their trips. The crew is here to make sure you have a world-class experience while you’re on their boat. Have your Texas inshore adventure now!
