Looking for more than just another fishing trip? Our private, whole-boat charters combine serious fishing with the comfort of a large sportfishing yacht, giving you an experience that most smaller boats simply can't match.
Whether you're an experienced angler or it's your family's very first time on the water, our professional crew is dedicated to making your day enjoyable, relaxing, and memorable. We fish hard for Galveston's popular species, including speckled trout, bull redfish, black drum, flounder, sheepshead, and more, while keeping the atmosphere fun and stress-free.
When you're ready for a break from the sun, step inside the spacious, air-conditioned cabin. Relax on comfortable seating, watch TV, cool off, enjoy a snack from the galley kitchen, or simply recharge before getting back to the action. Our yachts also feature sleeping berths, a full restroom with shower, refrigerator, microwave, and plenty of room for everyone to spread out in comfort.
Families are always welcome, and kids are some of our favorite guests. When conditions allow, young anglers can even take a turn at the helm under the direct supervision of the captain and experience what it's like to be "Captain for the Day."
For those looking for bigger adventures, we also offer offshore trips targeting red snapper, tuna, mahi-mahi, king mackerel, and other seasonal Gulf species. These longer trips provide the opportunity to experience some of the best offshore fishing Texas has to offer.
Every trip is private, so the boat is reserved exclusively for your group. No strangers. No crowded decks. Just your family and friends enjoying an unforgettable day on the water with an experienced crew focused on your safety, comfort, and success.
If you're looking for a fishing charter that offers both outstanding fishing and the comfort of a floating vacation home, you've found it. We look forward to welcoming you aboard and helping create memories that will last a lifetime.

The captain and crew were very professional, guided us through our first time Galveston bay fishing and knew the right spots to go to for both bait and redfish. Within 3 hours of afternoon fishing, we took the limit for our family, with 3 beautiful redfish ranging from 38" to 39 1/2". Continued some catch and release, and eventually headed back to the dock early after we all got tired of being in the sun. Excellent first-time bay fishing experience, would recommend! Everything on the boat was as promised, snacks and a full fridge were provided. Kids and less heat-tolerant family members could stay inside the cabin, out of the sun, and just relax. Zero complaints. Thank you!

The boat was superb. 44 foot luxury fishing boat and so comfortable for everyone. We went out to the jetties and dropped anchor. After 30 minutes of not getting a bite except for a small shark we moved to a better spot closer to the rocks. In an hour and half we caught ten catfish! After we returned to the marina the captain filleted the fish for us to take home and cook. What a great day for my 9 and 11 year old grandchildren.
thank you for the kind words. and we had a really good time with you guys also hope to see you again soon take care
My son and I wanted to get out for a day in the water knowing nothing about the area we decided on a charter and had a great time! The fog was THICK almost the entire time but having Jim and Joey navigating and getting us on fish we didn’t have a concern in the world. Clean safe boat with more creature comforts than we’re use to made the trip a blast! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a great day on the water.
thank you so much we appreciate it having you on board and we had a great time with you look forward to seeing you again
Took my brother out who has cancer & had limitations. the Capn & Mate handled the situation perfectly. Wrestled a handful of sharks & enjoyed all the amenities the boat had to offer, AC, toilet, music comfortable seating. Just a great day overall…
David, thank you so much for the wonderful review. We’re honored that you trusted us with such an important day with your brother. Our captain and mate were happy to make everything comfortable and enjoyable for both of you. We’re glad you caught some sharks and enjoyed the boat’s amenities! We truly appreciate your business and hope to have you both aboard again.
Captain Jacob & First Mate Cabe were the best! I took my 17yr old son and 5 of his friends and everyone had a blast. Fish were biting and everyone caught a fish! 5 sharks and 1 red drum. We are not experienced fishers but the crew rigged everything for us and guided us along the way. They were very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.
thanks
