trip description for "The Tug Is The Drug" in Galveston

This trip with Captain John is a great way to enjoy some of the best fishing that the Gulf Coast has to offer! The Galveston Bay Complex—including East Bay, West Bay, and Trinity Bay—offers extraordinary fishing for a number of shallow-water species, including classic Texas gamefish like Flounder, Redfish, Sheepshead, and Speckled Trout. To hook up on these species, you'll be using light tackle techniques along with some drifting and bottomfishing to draw bites. You'll fight the fish from Captain John's 24' Shoalwater bay boat, a versatile boat that's ideal for this type of trip. She runs on a 300-HP Suzuki outboard, and features a bunch of amenities to increase your chances of success and keep you comfortable, including a full suite of electronics, live wells for bait, a T-Top to keep you out of the direct sun, and an ice box for your keepers. Captain John will provide everything you need for an epic trip, including rods, reels, baits, and tackle. We recommend that you bring proper clothing, a hat, sunscreen, and a cooler with some snacks and drinks. Get out there and hook a personal best! Read More

  • ★★★★★
    We had some free time while in Houston and booked a last minute fishing trip with Captain Leb. He was not able to take us out but set us up with Captain Colton. Captain Leb was very responsive and professional in making sure that everything was set up smoothly for us. And our trip with Captain Colton was great, had a great time catching a variety of fish. I highly recommend both Captain Leb and Captain Colton.

    Carlton R. with Leb K. of Texas City, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Awesome time, great guide. Even with crappy weather, we still caught a ton of fish. Highly recommend!

    Samuel H. with Leb K. of Texas City, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Capitan Morgan and Colton were a blast! It felt like I was catching them as soon as the bait hit the water. The pair were also very easy to talk to. It felt like we were fishing with friends. They were so helpful, did a great job all the way around. I felt like I learned new things about the fish and the area. They also did a great job cleaning the fish and giving helpful tips on how to cook the catch of the day. While all this praise about the two mentioned above I hope it won't overshadow how great the fishing actually was. My husband catch his biggest catch while on this fishing trip! This was a surprise birthday celebration for my father in law, and he absolutely loved it. It was his first time going on a charter, and I can garentee we will be back again. My husband and I have been on several fishing charters, and this one definitely was one of the best. I'd highly recommend going here for your next fishing trip!

    Great experience from start to finish. We had a lot of fun on our fishing trip. Captain Leb was very knowledgeable and had everything we needed for the day. He helped teach all of us the ins and outs to catching reds and flounder. He even stopped in to this spot where we got burgers and he cleaned all of the catch we had. We will definitely be back again! Thanks!!
