Keep’n It Reel Fishing Charter
+35Keep’n It Reel Fishing Charter offers a variety of fishing adventures out of Galveston, TX. Join Captain William, who’s been fishing these waters for as long as he can remember. He fulfilled his lifelong dream of becoming a captain and loves sharing his knowledge with other people. Let him introduce you to the world of fishing if you haven’t got the chance so far, and catch your first fish here!
You’ll be fishing on a 23’ Sea Hunt that accommodates up to 6 guests. The boat is powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine and reaches the maximum speed of 34 knots. You’ll reach your spot fast and save more time to catch fish. The boat features modern navigational electronics, safety fear, a live bait tank, and a cooler for your catch.
Your fishing spots depend on what you want to catch, so it can be anything from inshore waters to jetties. Go after Flounder, Pompano, Redfish, Trout, Sheepshead, Mackerel, Shark, and many more. All trips are private, so you’ll always have the whole boat to yourself, even if there’s fewer than 6 people in your group.
Capt. William will cover your rods, reels, lures, and live bait. Since you get to keep the catch, he’ll also clean it for you after the trip, so you can enjoy the freshest fish fillets later in the day. Just pack some food and drinks and don’t forget to get your fishing license.
Keep’n It Reel Fishing Charter has a goal to provide their guests with a fishing trip of a lifetime! So, when are you coming?

Great Time Was Had
4 Hour Trip – Shark Adventure (PM) on May 4, 2025
My daughter and I had a great time, even though the fish weren’t biting. It happens. Our captain Zac kept trying different sites and wouldn’t give up. We finally hit on a big fish! The memory will last a lifetime.

AMAZING 6 HOUR SHARK TRIP!
6 Hour Trip – Shark Adventure (AM) on July 19, 2024
My friends and I took a 6 hour shake hunt for my bachelor party and we had a blast of a time! Captain Beau was outstanding! We were able to hook-up on several different species of sharks, reds, and drums! My friends and I all were left constantly running from side to side getting all the constant screaming reels. I would 100% recommend a shark hunt or any fishing excursion with Captain Will, Captain Beau or any of the crew as they were amazing and treated my boys and me great!

4 Hour Trip – Jetty & Bay (AM) on August 3, 2024
Myself and 5 friends went on the Jetty charter, and Beau was our captain. He was awesome. We were supposed to get beers with him after but we got caught up with some extra stuff haha He completely called his shot, told us he knew where to go for sharks, and did just that Highly recommend, we’ll get out there again soon and make sure to go with him again
