Line Check Charters operated by Captain Michael Regan and Captain Eric cannot wait to show you the inshore/nearshore fishing in Galveston. The waters here are fantastic and will provide an awesome fishing trip for you and your family. For offshore trips, just check out his second listing.

The boat is a 27’ KeyWest powered by two 200 HP Suzuki engines. She has high sides that will protect you from spray even on choppier waters, as well as all the navigational and safety gear you could ever want. All of this and still plenty of room on deck for up to 6 anglers to fish without crossing rods!

Galveston is a great fishing destination for a multitude of reasons, one of the biggest being how productive the area is. You will find yourself on the fish in no time at all - and the menu options are fantastic too!

You can expect to catch in the bay and jetty species such as large Red and Black Drum, as well as Gafftop Catfish, Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and many more! There is also a huge variety of Shark species.

Depending on the season, nearshore fishing can also provide you with Ling, Bull Drum and King Mackerel.

Light and heavy tackle is provided, but more experienced anglers that wish to fly fish will need to bring their own equipment. For everyone else, you will be using tackle by Accurate, Penn and Shimano and fishing predominantly with live bait. A variety of bait and lures are brought aboard each charter depending on what the clients are interested in catching and how the fish are biting.

All that’s left for you to do is book now, grab your fishing license, snacks and water, and meet Line Check Charters on the water!

4 Hour Trip - Bay & Jetty (PM) on November 29, 20252 adults
STOP THE SCROLL! 🛑 You want Captain Michael Regan on your side! We faced cold, windy weather that would have sunk most trips, but Captain Michael and Payton of Line Check Charters found us a secluded spot where we pulled in flounder (& released-out of season)—then he took us out for the main event! 🎣 The result? A MONSTER 25 lb Red Fish! 💪 Reeling in that fighter was thrilling! From the exciting catch to having it filleted and cooked up fresh at Huli Huli Hut—this is a guaranteed memorable Galveston fishing experience. Book your trip with Line Check Charters! You won't regret it.

Awesome Day on the Water!
4 Hour Trip - Bay & Jetty (PM) on July 27, 20252 adults
We had an incredible experience on the water thanks to Captain Eric. From the moment we set out, he put us right on the fish. His knowledge of the area and ability to find the best spots was impressive, and he’s not just a great guide—he’s a fantastic teacher as well. We caught several trout, battled some sizable sharks, and the absolute highlight was hooking into the biggest redfish I’ve ever seen! Captain Eric made the entire trip enjoyable and exciting from start to finish. Highly recommend this charter to anyone looking for a great charter experience. We’ll definitely be back!

Stellar Experience with LGBTQ friendly, Captain & Crew
4 Hour Trip- Shark & Bull Drum (PM) on August 5, 20253 adults
We booked an afternoon trip with Captain Mike. He was very responsive from the initial contact. He gave great direction for pickup/drop off. I let him know we were in town for my friends family emergency. He was amiable to meet us, he and his crew were very friendly, kind, funny, and knowledgeable. We got in the boat and we were told what the trip would be like. It far surpassed both myself and my friends expectations!!!! I am coming back to the area later in the month, if Mike is available we will book with him. Go get some FISH, with Captain Mike!!!

Great Family Fishing Trip
4 Hour Trip - Bay & Jetty (PM) on December 30, 20255 adults
Amazing day on the water with Captain Mike. The weather threw a curve ball but that was no problem at all. Mike knew just where to head and we put fish in the boat. Excellent fishing equipment and a boat in perfect condition. 100% recommend Line Check Charters. We have done many charters and Mike is at the top! Sam the 1st Mate even provided some comedic relief!

4 Hour Trip- Shark & Bull Drum (PM) on November 23, 20254 adults
This was an amazing trip. Captain mike might possibly be the best captain on the water. He knew where the fish were, we literallly asked to cut the trip a bit short because we were worn out from catching sharks and red drum. sometimes all of our reels were hitting at the same time. I was suprised thinking mid November may not be good fishing. Captiam mike even filet some and told us about a restaurant that will cook yoir catch. eating our fresh caught fish really made a nice finish to the trip.
