50+ reviews
I have been fishing the Galveston Bay Complex for over 30 years. I love taking customers out to enjoy a morning on the water and showing them how to catch fish instead of them watching me catch fish. I live on the water in Crystal Beach, TX on Bolivar Peninsula. All equipment is furnished and your catch will be cleaned and bagged to take with you. Customers leave from a private dock with private parking at my home in Crystal Beach. Part of the reason I became a guide is so I could share my love of fishing with others.

    Great Father Daughter Trip

    5 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    I am 71 and my daughter is 50ish :-). Capt Ronnie put us on fish almost immediately. He helped my daughter get the hang of it (actually they ganged up on me to catch more fish). Weather was great but had a big storm on the horizon coming towards us. We fished 3 hrs + and caught over our limit so catch and release. Had a great time, thanks Capt Ronnie. Already have another day booked. Fish Fry was a winner.

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout

    Thank you for the kind words and I hope to see y'all again sometime. Capt.Ronnie

What's biting with Crystal Beach Fishing # 1 in Bolivar Peninsula

The bay is full of Redfish and Speckled Trout. Flounder peak season is starting, so this is the best time to go after the Big Three.
