Land-based shark fishing is one of the most exciting and fastest-growing branches of sport fishing, and Texas is a great place to learn how to target sharks and game species from the beach.
For a fraction of the cost of a big-game charter boat booking, you can experience the thrill and satisfaction of catching, photographing, and releasing your own Gulf Coast giant.
We always offer an all-inclusive package - top quality tackle and guiding services, the best bait and equipment - so you can just turn up and know you stand a great chance of putting a fish of a lifetime on the sand.

* Suitable clothing for spending the day in the sun and possibly getting wet (we recommend long-sleeved, UV-resistant)

This seems really cool because they have the drones take out the bait for you. Unfortunately, out of our 8 hours there, we only had 1 catch. Just sucks paying the full price when we only had the 1 catch. Scott was great, though. He was friendly and personable. Only thing I would recommend, is if it’s known that the fish aren’t really biting, let patrons know in advance. I would give them the deposit and just say hey, we will just go do something else.

i hate you didn’t catch anything.. unfortunately that is Fishing. I wish there was a way for us to be able to tell you we know you’re not gonna catch something. There’s not. Just like there’s no way we can tell you you are gonna catch something.. You just fish and hope for the best.. We’re fishing nearly every single day of the summer months and we are catching fish, 95% of that time. There are times that we cannot control if the fish do not bite. There’s always the question the clients can ask are the fish biting? That would also give you the chance to say “you can keep the deposit “ so you would be able to do something different. The last thing we want is for you not to catch a fish. But hey, we’re all human here. If I could tell you exactly what you’re gonna catch and when you’re gonna catch it, I would probably be doing something different. and there’s one thing that I can say and anyone that knows can say Scott has some of the best equipment in the business.. As everyone does in my outfit.. Wish you guys the best ..
We had a great time. Steve and Coulter were awesome; had everything set up, walked us through everything we needed to know, and were really fun to hang out with for the day. We caught some very cool fish and had a fantastic day all around.

Had an awesome time with you guys! Thanks for choosing us..
The weather was not great, but the crew fought through and had everything up and going when it cleared. Fantastic trip! We will do this every year when we visit the area. We caught multiple sharks on a really tough day. The entire day was one to remember for our family.
This was a great experience and by far the best of several different charters we have done in the gulf. Steven and his k9 partner were wonderful to spend the day with - very knowledgeable and friendly!
