We went out with Guide Rene Garcia, we loved every minute. We knew nothing about saltwater fishing, Rene was a wealth of knowledge for us. He is very patient and kind. And ladies if you’ve been unsure if you wanted to participate while your partner is fishing, Rene is your guy. He’s a tremendous help, he kept my line bated at all times, he would cast out my line for me. All I had to do was reel in my catch, so much fun. He taught us alot and took the time to answer any of our questions.
Definitely giving him a call the next time we come to Galveston. Thank you Rene for a heck of a good time!!!

Captain Rene was awesome! He was kind, professional, patient, and most of all - he really knows what he is doing out there. My daughter and I did a morning 4hr fishing trip with him to the Galveston Jetties. His boat was comfortable and full of first class equipment. He os an expert on the seasonal fish patterns and did a great job teaching both my daughter and I the technique required to catch the spawning Sheepshead off the rocks, and we had a blast. We caught 10 fish, including 6 Sheepshead and 2 Black Drum. Kept and cooked the Sheepshead for dinner with the rest of our family and it was delicious. Very underrated gamefish! Tastes better than Redfish IMHO. We come to Galveston at least once a year, and we will definitely be calling Captain Rene for our next fishing trip in Galveston.

Captain Rene delivered one of the best charter experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped on the boat, he was dialed in, professional, and clearly passionate about putting us on fish. We caught multiple species, including some solid red drum and black drum, and he never stopped working to keep the action steady.

He’s patient, knowledgeable, and makes the whole trip fun. The boat and gear were in great shape, and he handled everything so we could just relax and fish. Whether you’re new to saltwater or have been fishing your whole life, you’re in good hands with Bravo Zulu Fishing Charters.

Highly recommend. I’ll be booking with him again.

Captain Rene greeted us and after a quick explanation of the plan, we were on our way. We hit the fish almost immediately. Smaller bait fish and a few good size sand trout and whiting. When we got our bait on the heavy duty rods we hit a black-tip shark, black drum and the then we tagged out on big reds. Captain Rene was very friendly, respectful, and attentive. He guided us when we needed help or if we asked for some direction. Never over bearing and never disrespectful. Captain Rene showed us a great time and delivered on a great fishing experience! Once again, thank you for your time and your service! We’ll be back!

Captain Rene with Bravo Zulu Fishing Charters gave us a top-notch experience from start to finish. From the moment we hit the water, it was clear he knows the area, the fish, and how to keep the trip fun, productive, and smooth.

He put us right on the fish—black drum, trout, and even a small shark that made my son’s entire weekend. Rene gave helpful pointers when needed but never hovered, making it easy to enjoy the moment. His laid-back yet dialed-in approach made the whole charter feel effortless.

The boat was clean and well-maintained, and the gear was solid. Rene handled everything so we could focus on reeling in fish and making memories.

Whether you’re an experienced angler or bringing your kid out for their first charter, this is the guy to book. I’ve done a handful of trips like this, and this one definitely stands out. Highly recommend Bravo Zulu for anyone looking to actually catch fish and have a damn good time doing it.
