About Your Trip

This trip with Captain Leb 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 a light tackle techniques along with some drifting and bottomfishing to draw bites.

You'll fight the fish from Captain Leb's 24' NauticStar center console, a versatile boat that's ideal for this type of trip. She runs on a 250-HP Yamaha 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 Leb 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!
