Galveston offers up a huge variety of angling opportunities: battling gigantic Tuna offshore, hooking huge Red Snapper over the reefs, and exploring shallow inshore waters for Flatfish and Redfish. Get Hooked Charters Galveston offers guests the chance to experience all of this and more!

With a fleet of 5 full-time vessels and a motley crew of friendly, local captains behind the helm, this charter company goes above and beyond to make sure that no guest misses out on their dream angling adventure. From newbies and families to seasoned fishermen, everyone is welcome aboard!

USCG-licensed captain Mike Short started the business in 2007, wanting to put his years of experience to good use. Now, he works alongside a whole host of other experienced captains to offer a variety of adventures exploring Galveston's waters. One thing's for certain: they all can't wait to show you 'round the magnificent fishing grounds of your choice.

Step aboard the charter company's 39' Contender, and you'll have all of Galveston's prolific at your fingertips.

Depending on the trip you opt for, you'll have the chance to target a whole range of famous species. Inshore, it's all about the Texan trio of Flounder, Speckled Trout, and Redfish.

Your captain will make sure you're decked out with top-quality rods and reels, as well as bait and tackle. All you need to bring are snacks, drinks, and a fishing license. Get Hooked Charters Galveston are ready and waiting to show you just what these waters have to offer!
