Best Angler

4 Hour Trip – Bay/Jetty - 12:00 PM4 adults

Adam was the best captian hands down. I initially scheduled our trip for 12p.m although I knew its better fish in early am or evenings. I recieved a call at 10:40 am to inform me of a technical issue. We were bumped to 2 pm and the staff were ready when we arrived. Adam searched for hours to find red fish since we showed a deisre to catch them. Finally towards the ladder of the day, 5 reds large bit at the same leaving us with huge smiles and a full cooler to bring home. We will return for another great experience.

    Great time!

    4 Hour Trip – Bay/Jetty • 4 adults • 1 child

    Booked this trip for my eight-year-old grandson’s first bay fishing trip. We went with the 4 hour bay/jetty trip.  His Poppy and Uncle went along for the ride. Captain Robbie and Deck Hand Landon met and exceeded expectations. He caught close to 30 bait fish to start and then the hunt was on! He caught black drum, steelhead, trout and most excitingly a 4 foot sandbar shark. Couldn’t ask for a better trip or a better captain and deck hand. He even got to talk a little smack to his uncle for catching more fish! Would definitely recommend UpScale Anglers as well as Robbie and Landon.

    Fantastic Fishing Trip

    6 Hour Trip – Bay/Jetty • 4 adults

    Captain Robbie and Lando made the trip fun for our family. He was knowledgeable about what was out there to catch. I enjoyed catching the bait fish, then the dinner fish and topped it off with shark and stingray fishing. Definite highlight of the trip was the massive approximately 9 foot and 300 pound lemon shark we hooked into. Took us for a ride for 45 minutes and 3/4 of a mile. Captain Robbie kept everyone involved and the mood exciting. Definitely the most electric fishing charter we have been on, and thats with dozens of trips worth of experience. These two guys knew their stuff and were super friendly and great with us and our younger son. Upscale anglers is definitely the charter to go with for family trips, boys trips, and just a great time in general.

    Great Family Trip

    4 Hour Trip – Bay/Jetty • 5 adults

    My family and I had an incredible trip with Upscale Anglers in Galveston. Captain Adam and Deckhand Tristen run a tight ship—they’re fun to be around, they know the water like the back of their hand, and they kept us on the fish all day. My son landed his personal best Bull Red, and I came within inches of topping mine. My wife and daughter caught more fish than they ever have on a trip, and the crew stayed on top of everything—rebaiting, resetting lines, and making sure we were always fishing, not waiting. Great people, great energy, and a great day on the water. We’ll be back, no question.
