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. 

What should I bring on a guided surf fishing trip with Gulf Coast Yaker?
* Sunscreen, sunglasses (polarised), sunhat
* Chairs (we normally provide chairs) but if you have something you prefer you are welcome to bring it along.
* Suitable clothing for spending the day in the sun and possibly getting wet (we recommend long-sleeved, UV-resistant)
* Beach towel and/or change of clothes
* If fishing into the evening, please also be aware that temperatures at night can be quite cool so please bring a warm/windproof jacket, hoodie, and pants to change into
* A good quality head-lamp with fresh batteries for afternoon-into-evening sessions
* Drinks and food for the day
* Camera or camera phone
What is provided on a guided surf fishing trip with Gulf Coast Yaker?
* All fishing equipment (rods, reels, rigs, etc)
* All bait
* Water
* 1 meal only on overnight trips

We will send a text to the provided phone number as soon as we are set up at the fishing location.
Fishing time usually starts at 10:00 AM if the weather permits, or just let us know when you'd like to start your trip!! We don't mind working with you.
We will always check the weather conditions a few days before the trip.

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.
