Kemah Fishing Charters specializes in fishing trips for beginners up to expert anglers on Galveston Bay. All the trips are conducted on inshore waters where conditions are typically calm, so no need to worry about rough seas. Captains will make sure you have a great time on the water. Kemah Fishing Charters aims to provide a relaxing, fun, and educational experience!

Your trip will start on a Blazer Bay 2400 with a Suzuki 300 outboard. The boat uses fishfinder and GPS navigation technology, a wireless trolling motor, and is also equipped with a livewell. We also have Nautic Star 244 xts for charter trips.
On your trip, you will be targeting Flounder, Sheepshead, Redfish, Speckled Trout, as well as Black Drum. Using light and heavy tackle, you can bottom fish, drift fish, spin, jig, and popping cork fish. Kids are welcome to join aboard starting at the age of 4.

The captain provides all the fishing gear, including rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures. The only things you will need to bring are fishing licenses for everyone 17 and older, and any refreshments you may want for the outing. Captains work hard before, during, and after the trip, so tips are much appreciated.

    Great day at sea

    Mid Morning on November 1, 2025 • 2 adults

    We caught a bunch of fish. Captain Blake was on time and ready to go when we got there. He helped with baiting and getting the fish off the hooks and even cleaned our fish at the end of the trip. Highly recommended!

Not the best, it happens.
Full day trip on June 12, 2026 • 2 adults

The captain had some mechanical issues with his boat and wasn’t able to make our trip happen. He was able to get us paired up with another boat/captain the night before which was a plus. Long story short, it was a rough day for our crew. We sat around about 6 other boats that were NON-STOP reeling in keeper after keeper after keeper….all while we were catching hard heads and tiny reds. Not blaming this on our booked or used captains just stating the facts. Can’t always have a great day catching but this was an exceptionally lackluster trip by a long shot. I would recommend talking to a few captains ahead of booking anything to see how it’s been going and to ensure they’ve got reliable equipment and vetted results just so you know what you could be in for.

Knowledgeable Guide!
Spring Special on March 13, 2026 • 2 adults

Blake was great! He was easy-going & really knew the area/fishing spots well! It was really cool to have him clean our fish at the end then have us take them right over to Topwater Grill for them to cook up for lunch! It doesn't get any fresher than that!! Thanks Blake!
