Galveston Fishing Charter Company is one of the biggest and most established names in town. They have been running charters in the area for years, building up a reputation for reliability and quality across their large fleet of boats.

Choose from a wide range of trips, fishing either inshore or offshore at competitive rates, with times to suit any schedule. All this aboard safe, well-maintained boats with quality equipment, run by experienced captains and crews.

You will be spending your day aboard a 26’ Stamas center console. The vessel cruises at an impressive 45 knots, comfortably carrying groups of up to six guests out in search of great fish. The vessel features a covered top to escape the worst of the summer sun and a head for extra comfort on longer trips.

The waters around Galveston are famous for the sheer variety of fish you can catch. You will be able to take full advantage of this on your trip, fishing the local jetties or deeper offshore waters to fill your coolers and have some serious fun doing so.

The list of fish you can catch inshore is unbeatable. Redfish, Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, Jack Crevalle, and several species of Shark. All these and more can be easily reached on a half day trip, and a full day will give you plenty of time to hit your limits on a ton of tasty table fare.

Head offshore, and you will be able to battle bigger game like Mahi Mahi, Kingfish, Tarpon, and maybe even Sailfish. Up for the ultimate angling adventure? Book in for a Shark trip and wrestle monster Makos, Hammerheads, Bulls, and Tigers, alongside a long list of other awesome Shark species.

Whatever you do, you’re in for a very special day, with an experienced crew and a clean, modern boat. All trips include tackle, bait, fuel, and the cleaning and packaging of all your catch, so all you have to do is turn up and enjoy.

Red Snapper Deep Sea Trip

Red Snapper run fun

VERIFIED

This trip was a birthday gift for my 9yr old son. Captain Blake and the crew are professionals. The boat was clean and squared away for the trip when we arrived. Captain Blake and crew made sure we were comfortable during the ride and Captain Blake put us on the fish! The crew rigged up lines and started fishing as soon as we hit the stops. It was amazing to see them work as a team. My son was on the reels within minutes hauling fish onto the boat. We caught Mahi, Red Snapper, and Mangrove Snapper. The smile on my son’s face and his excitement is what the trip was all about. When we returned to dock Captain Blake and his crew filleted and bagged our catch in no time and we were on our way home with plenty of fish. (The Mahi tacos for dinner were most excellent, by the way!) Thank you Captain Blake and crew. My son has been talking about his fishing experience non-stop. Ya’ll made his birthday gift worth every penny and he is excited for his next ocean adventure.

Half Day - Jetty (AM)

Any day fishing is a good day!

VERIFIED

We took the four hour ride. It was pouring rain but we still enjoyed our time. We learned that we might take the longer ride next time to see a bigger variety of fish. We fished in June. Our captain recommended trying an October/November ride next time. We had a blast and would definitely go again.
