Spend the day with Big Dawg Outfitters and get hooked on fishing in FreePort Galveston Tx

These waters are known for Yellowfin Tuna, Blacktip Shark, Amberjack, Wahoo, Yellowtail Snapper, Red Snapper, Blackfin Tuna, Blue Marlin, Mangrove Snapper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Lane Snapper, and more – it won't be long before "Fish on!" For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. We Guarantee your limits of Snapper! During snapper season

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

Your adventure begins aboard a 2023 36' Cape Horn center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Capt. Scott will supply all Penn rods and reels for you.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Additional fuel charge after state water 9miles

Before coming aboard, it will be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask captain scott. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It's recommended to bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, time to hit the water with Big Dawg Outfitters!

    Phenomenal fishing trip!

    8 Hour Trip – Offshore Snapper on September 20, 2024 • 6 adults

    Capt Scott and his deck hand Andrew were the best that fishermen could ask for! They put us on the fish fast! If you don’t book them, you are starting off on the wrong foot. If you want to be the talk of the marina, go with them!

    Incredible tuna trip with bonus species

    24 Hour Trip – SPJ / Tuna on August 8, 2024 • 3 adults

    Had the trip of my life with Captain Scott and deckhands Jackson & Greg. We caught so many fish we had to buy another much larger cooler. Highly recommend to anybody who wants to catch large snapper, mahi, tuna and grouper.

Hi, I'm Capt. Scott Pierce. For over 30 years, fishing has been more than a hobby for me, it's been a way of life. That lifelong passion led me to become a professional fishing guide, giving me the incredible opportunity to share the thrill of the catch with fellow anglers, friends, families, and newcomers alike. I specialize in chasing some of the most exciting reef species, Snapper, Tuna, and Amberjack, and there's nothing more rewarding than helping others reel in the fish of a lifetime. Whether you're a seasoned fisherman or just getting started, I'm here to make sure your trip is fun, safe, and unforgettable. I've been blessed with an amazing family, married for 24 years with three wonderful kids, and we all share a deep love for the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. Faith and family are at the heart of everything I do, and I consider it a true gift to be able to use my knowledge and experience to serve others on the water.
