Matthew West
Member since October 2019
Galveston, United States
- Background
- I was born in Texas and grew up on the Gulf Coast. I've been fishing with my family for as long as I can remember. In my early teens, I had the opportunity to get my first real dose of blue water and giant fish. This is where the addiction started. Since I've gotten older, it's become a passion of mine to see people's reactions to hooking into a fish of their dreams, give them the opportunity to harvest their own dinner, and make memories with their friends and families. We're a young business and haven't been at it as long as some captains but don't let that distract you. When you arrive at the boat, we want you and your guests to feel like family and at home!
- Techniques
- When fishing the jetties, we'll supply you with bait and tackle. You'll be provided with top-quality spinning tackle for the smaller inshore species (e.g. Trout, Redfish, Flounder, and Sheepshead). You'll have the option to fish with live shrimp, finger mullet, or opt for soft plastic bait, rigged in a variety of ways. We'll always have live bait for every trip unless it's discussed prior to the trip. When targeting Shark, Bull Reds, and Black Drum. we'll also have heavy tackle provided for you. When fishing offshore, we'll fish natural, as well as man-made reefs and platforms to target different species, including Snapper, Cobia, Kingfish, and Grouper just to name a few. We'll use bottom fishing techniques, along with vertical jigging and trolling.
