Spend the day with Salty Paws Charters, and let them show you what makes the fishing in Galveston so memorable!

Depending on the season, you might hook into Speckled Trout, Flounder, Bull Reds, Sharks, and plenty more. On these trips, it's common to use popping corks, drift, and bottom fish using light tackle. Live bait or artificial bait trips are available. Rods and reels will be ready for you.

Your adventure begins aboard a 24' Majek Reaper with a capacity for 4 passengers. With a 36v trolling motor and dual power poles, you can sneak up on your trophy catch. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Robert is able to accommodate clients with special needs. Service dogs are welcome with prior arrangements with the Captain.

You will need to get 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. Children are welcome aboard.

You can't go wrong when you bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Salty Paws Charters will make it easy for you to go fishing in Galveston. So, how about booking that trip?

Great fishing experience!
Half Day Trip on September 6, 20263 adults

We had an awesome trip with Capt. Bob Brown! He was extremely knowledgeable, easygoing, and knew exactly where to put us on the fish. We found fish at every stop, and even with storms moving through, Capt. Bob went above and beyond by extending our trip and making sure we got hooked up. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients having a great experience. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back to fish with Capt. Bob again. Highly recommend him! 🎣👍

The best guide we’ve ever had!
Beginners 2 hour trip on June 28, 20262 adults

We had an absolutely amazing experience with this fishing guide out of hitchcock, Texas. It was me and my 11-year-old nephew, who had never been on a fishing trip before, and our guide made the entire trip unforgettable. He truly tailored the experience toward my nephew, making sure he felt comfortable, included, and excited the whole time. In just a two-hour trip, he put my nephew on 19 catches, which made his first fishing experience something he will never forget. He also went above and beyond by bringing waters and snacks for my nephew, which showed how thoughtful and prepared he was. The trip was comfortable, fun, and very well-run from start to finish. Another thing I really appreciated was the dock/location he goes out of. It has a security guard and a private gate, so my truck felt very secure while we were out on the water. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great fishing guide, especially if you’re bringing kids or first-time anglers. We could not have asked for a better experience! We can not wait to book our next trip! Also you can’t beat the prices!!!

Round 2 for Nate’s Birthday!
Half Day Trip on August 9, 20263 adults

Captain Bobby “gets it”. This is our second trip with Salty Paws and we cant wait for our third. His equipment is top-notch. But more importantly this Captain is committed to making sure you have a great experience. My kids will not remember if we limited out or not, but they will remember the laughs, jokes, and good times. Thanks Captain Bobby for making Nate’s birthday great!

What a great experience!
Half Day Trip on June 27, 20262 adults1 child

Capt. Bobby was amazing! Very personable and knowledgeable about the area. We had a wonderful half day excursion and fished several spots. If you are fishing with kids, this is the one to book. Bobby was so patient and educational in a fun and relaxed way with our son. We would happily book him again if headed back to the area.
