About Your Trip

Meet up with Captain Terry at the Matagorda Harbour to launch on an action-packed adventure exploring Matagorda Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The convenience store at the dock is the perfect place to load up on bait, drinks, snacks, and even lunch before you head out on the water.

For your full-day trip you can choose between his morning or his afternoon offering. Capt. Terry's morning trip runs from 6 am to 1 pm and his afternoon trip runs from 2 pm to dark. Both options are great!

Captain Terry's brand new 25' Dargle is totally decked out and very luxurious. It comes loaded with all the fishing rods, reels, and tackle you'll need for a successful aquatic excursion, all you need to buy is your Texas Fishing License and some bait which will run you 40-100$.

Capt. Terry has been fishing these waters for years and knows all the best spots to chase down tailing redfish, whack the trout, and catch a ton of flounder for the dinner table!

About Your Guide

Captain Terry

Independent Guide 10 yrs of exp.

Captain Terry has been involved in/with the great outdoors since the moment he was introduced into this world. At an extremely young age, his father placed a fishing rod into his hands and began passing on the critical skills that would later create a patient, persistent, successful young man. By the age of sixteen, Terry’s waterfowl hunting obsession took hold and drove him to make his first boat faster! As this love for the water grew so did his experience which eventually led to mastering the art of the hunt.
That accomplishment brought forward a desire to share his outdoor adventures with the world and in 2015 he started the brand and his charter business with a primary goal of having fun in the outdoors. Today he happily calls Matagorda Bay home and is blessed to be surrounded by a phenomenal network of men & women that are some Texas’s BEST!

Terry was by far the best guide we’ve had in Matagorda! It’s obvious he knows the bay & where the fish are, in addition to being very personable and attentive to our team. A++++
