The fishing trip was awesome! Me and my family caught a variety of fish although not big enough to keep. We thoroughly enjoyed it and our captain, Trey, was awesome as well. He baited our lines and took us around to plenty of fishing spots. We really enjoyed it!

Hi Brandon! Thank you for taking the time to review your experience with Get Hooked Charters Galveston and Captain Trae, we really appreciate you. We always want the best conditions but mother nature throws us some curve balls from time to time and I am glad to hear that your captain still was able to provide a good experience on the water with you and your son. Thank you again and we look forward to the next time, Melody and the GHC crew
