Get the Net Charters welcomes you aboard for a classic Texas inshore adventure. Captain Bobby Lavender will take you to all his favorite fishing spots, using the tried and tested techniques he has built up over his many years on the water. He will get you on monster catches of Trout, Redfish, and much, much more.

Stalk the shallows aboard Captain Bobby's 24' Clearwater bay boat. She can fit six anglers with ease, carrying you and your group to the best spots at speed thanks to her clean-burning Honda outboard. She also has a silent trolling motor for sneaking up on spooky fish lurking among the murky backwaters.

Once you get into position, the vessel really comes into her own. She is stocked with quality light tackle from Penn, Daiwa, Ugly Stiks, and more. Live bait will be provided at cost to temp the fussiest of fish.

Captain Bobby will adapt each trip to suit you. If you're a group of beginners or a family with kids, he will make sure you get that all-important first fish, and will walk you through all his trick to bringing in the biggest catch. Experienced anglers can spend the day focusing on one specific fish or technique, or go for limits and bring back a boatload of tasty table fare.

All Get the Net Charters trips come with quality tackle, lures, bottled water, and a cleaning and filleting service for all your catch. Remember to bring a saltwater fishing license, a hat, sunscreen, and the biggest cooler you can lay your hands on!

We caught some fish
Half Day Trip – Weekend on August 15, 20262 adults1 child

Boat, launch and Captain all were good. Bobby is very punctual and wasted no time getting underway. Clean cut, proffesional and works for his customers. Wish we caught more fish but we didnt get skunked. Unfortunately nothing excpetional and no keepers but its called fishing not cathcing I suppose. Bobby tried several different spots and methods to find the fish and it wasnt for his trying. I would do it again and would roll the dice with Get the Net again. Give him a shot!

What an amazing morning!
2 Hour–Part-time Fisherman (8:30AM) on July 25, 20231 adult3 children

Bobby Lavender is your captain! We’ve never experienced such a kind, generous and committed host. He called us the day before our charter and recommended changing our departure time in order for the children to enjoy cooler temperatures. He was spot on! It was dark as we pulled away from the pier (Bobby arrived exactly in-time, as promised) and soon we were watching the sunrise across the bay. Spectacular! Next, he took us to a “sweet spot” where he was confident the children (ages 5, 7 and 8) would experience the best fishing. Boy, was he on target. We pulled in a huge variety of fish and every catch was a joy. Bobby taught us so much. We also saw stingrays, sharks and dolphins. What?!? Yep, it was that good. We returned to the dock in time to say our goodbyes then head to breakfast to celebrate our stories. Bobby Lavender is a very special man and I’m so thankful we had this experience with him.

Best fishing experience ever
4 Hour Trip on August 5, 20242 adults

Captain Bobby was simply amazing! He not only helped bait our hooks, he helped with castling out and he shared his knowledge with us about how to fish. He gave us pointers and even showed us to help us better understand. My husband and I had great conversations with him and he was so kind and helpful! We will always book with him from now on!

I took my 7 yr old and 9 year old grandsons fishing. We would fish with Capt Bobby again. We limited out on speckled trout and one grandson caught a 30.5” bull red (large red drum)

4 hour AM trip with capt Bobby Lavender
4 Hour Trip – Jetty on July 29, 20222 adults

Can’t say enough about our experience with Captain Bobby Lavender. A lot can go wrong with booking a fishing trip, but Captain Bobby did everything in his power to get us on the water fishing on time with great bait and plenty of equipment to use for the trip. He made tackle recommendations for me because I was using my own gear and my girlfriend was using the gear he brought and it was in great shape and worked flawlessly. As soon as we got to our first stop we hooked up with some big Bull Reds and he gave advice and tips to land the fish with ease. We ended up both tagging two big bull reds and released 6 others to fight another day. We also caught a handful of speckled trout and were able to get one slot sized fish in the boat to bring home. The entire trip was enjoyable from start to finish and I can’t recommend him enough and I will definitely be booking again in the future!

Captain Bobby has been fishing since he was a boy and has always loved being out on the water. Originally from Florida, Captain Bobby made the move to Texas several years ago and has been enjoying running charters in Texas' inshore waters ever since. He feels blessed to have the opportunity to teach and share his experience with others!
