If you’re ready to go fishing in Houston, book a trip with Max Outfitters. With Captain Jose at the helm, you’ll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
These waters are known for Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Flounder, Redfish, and more – with any luck, it won’t take long to hook into some. You’ll target your catch by light tackle fishing, popping, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
You’ll find yourself aboard a 24’ NauticStar bay boat with room for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.
You will need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with Max Outfitters!

Absolutely Incredible Fishing Trip with Jose!
1/4 day trip on July 26, 2025 • 3 adults
We had the best time hay fishing with Jose — it was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. Our group included some serious fishermen — the boys fish all the time, and my son is even on the high school fishing team — and even they said this was the best fishing guide they’ve ever had.
Jose knew exactly where to take us, and we basically caught all the fish we could catch. It was nonstop action and excitement, and we enjoyed every minute of it. Jose made the trip fun, relaxed, and completely memorable.
Highly recommend booking with him — whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned angler, you’re guaranteed to have an amazing time!

Many memories made!
1/4 day trip on June 28, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child
We had been looking forward to this trip since we booked a few months ago. Two friends with their sons looking to make lasting memories. Our party had two kids and an inexperienced adult, and Captain Cano was great! He tended to them with patience and encouragement throughout the whole trip. We started a little slow, but the bite picked up and the rookies started to put on a show. They are now “hooked” on this beautiful pass time, and the seeds have been planted for the future. Needless to say, this will not be the last time we go out on the water and make new memories. Captain Cano, thank you for making this a very satisfying trip for us and for allowing us to make memories with our son’s that will last a lifetime! See you soon.

I had an great experience on this fishing trip today. From start to finish, everything was top-notch, the captain was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about fishing. We hit some great spots, and I ended up catching a bunch of speckled trout. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced angler, this charter is the real deal. Highly recommend to anyone looking to have a great time and bring home a cooler full of fish. Can’t wait to book again!

Great Trip in December
Half Day Trip on December 20, 2024 • 3 adults
Let me start by saying that my son and I had a great time fishing with Captain Jose Cano. For being December, we had a good day. Could it have been better? Yes, but for that we would need an act of God to change the weather. We knew going in that fishing was going to be a bit slow given the time of the year and weather.
Captain Jose was on time and very helpful. Specially with my son who has little experience fishing. He was helping him throughout the trip. He was able to get us on some fish and we were able to take enough fillets for a nice meal for two. We also did catch and release on half a dozen other fish. We will go back in the summer and use his services again. Do not hesitate to book a trip with Max Outfitters, you'll have a great time on the water, and with a little bit of good weather, some fish also.

Jose put us on fish and was easy to work with
1/4 day trip on July 21, 2025 • 3 adults
I went with my nephew and 2 of my brother in laws. We caught a bunch of fish and Jose helped out a ton. Tried several spots after the bite stopped at the first place. Jose stayed out late and cleaned our fish after. Would recommend for kids, beginners, and experienced fishermen.
