Make some memories in Galveston and go fishing with Smoke 'N' Reels Fishing Charters. With Captain Chris at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.
AMBERJACK SEASON: September 1, 2025 - October 31, 2025
RED SNAPPER SEASON: June 1st - ????
Amberjack, Flounder, Cobia, Great Barracuda, Mahi Mahi, Jack Crevalle, Kingfish, Redfish, Vermilion Snapper, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, and more are in the cards, depending on the time of year. You can expect to do some light tackle fishing, trolling, drifting, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!
You'll be welcome aboard a 33' Center console with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates often work for tips, and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip. You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
You can't go wrong when you bring snacks, drinks, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
