Trip - 2 Person Inshore Fishing Charter in Galveston Bay for Redfish and Speckled Trout on September 6, 2025
Clock Icon 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM

this was our first experience with a guide in galveston bay. Justen and the boat was shady in the water and ready when we arrived a 6am for our 7 hour trip. He went full throttle to get us to the first spot before we could even see. We caught several of the fish we were targeting including sheepshead, black drum, and red drum. We caught a few of the trash fish; Justen provided pointers to help avoid the trash fish. we had a lot of fish that just weren't long enough to keep. In the end, we had a lot of fun; joking around with Justen, we had a good amount of meat to bring home, and a special memory of my wife successfully setting the hook and applied correct technique to reel in a whopper... a 6 ft stick. Thank you, Justen. we had a great time.

I had an awesome tour with Capt. Justin. I learned so much from fishing with him. He shared some great tips and tricks and we got done really hot spots. We limited out on reds and speckled trout and almost got our limit on black drum. It felt more like was hanging out with a friend or else fishing buddy. Capt. Justen knew where to find the fish and we were able hook up on a great day's catch. If you want a great fishing tour, Capt. Justen will not disappoint. Highly recommended....

This was my Dad’s and my first time saltwater fishing. Justen was patient with my 87yr old father and taught us all the tricks. We caught a variety of fish. So exciting!! Justen made the trip a memory that will not soon be forgotten!!
