We left from a fishing camp on the bayou near Santa Fe, so the trip out to the Gulf was actually interesting. Greg Jr. was our captain, and he definitely put us on the fish - Black Drum, Sheep's Head, speckled trout, red fish - a lot of action. Had we been taking fish home, we would have filled a cooler. Greg Jr. knows his trade, he's respectful and professional. Good kid from a good family. If you have kids, the bay/jetty trip is a lot of fun. Lots of fish, calm water, even a few alligators.

There wasn't a question he couldn't answer, despite his youth. He handled everything for us, since we were inexperienced, unless we wanted to do it ourselves. He thoroughly knows the island waters. My only complain was that he would smoke briefly during transit, which was hard since we had some motion sickness. But I would hire him again.

My daughter and I recently booked a full day fly fishing charter in the marshes around Galveston…read morewith Captain Eric Whitley on his Hells Bay Whipray skiff. We managed to hook a few redfish on the fly, but didn't get any to the boat (likely due to angler error!). Through the entire trip, Captain Whitley expertly poled the skiff and spotted fish. Most importantly to us, he was super patient and helpful. He clearly communicated what to look for and where to cast. He really worked very hard to get us on fish, moving to multiple spots around the bay system. While the catching wasn't great on this particular day, the fishing experience was terrific. We got to see lots of interesting fishing spots, and learned a TON from the Captain about fishing the super shallow waters of Galveston Bay. I'm already planning to charter my next trip with him in the fall. FYI, we brought our own tackle, but Captain Whitley has tackle (fly and spinning) available if you need it. He also had water and snacks aboard; bring your lunch for a full day trip. His current boat is comfortable for two anglers, but we'd suggest not bringing too much stuff aboard as there is limited storage space.

Also the captain was told by another captain where to go to catch fish and he chose not to take his advice. Once we arrived at the first location the captain could not locate the cutoff rig he was looking for. We fished the spot for about an hour and failed to catch a fish. This happen again at the next location, we finally started catching fish at the third location however they were not quality fish we actually had to measure red snapper and it took the rest of the day just to catch 8 keepers. And when we got back to the Marina the captain who told our captain where to go had caught limits of large red snapper and amberjack we failed to catch any Amber Jack. It was a real disappointment.

I'm gonna try to keep this short and factual since I've been mad thinking about it…read more I figured out after about 45 minutes this "guide" put us a school of bait fish to essentially catch our own bait for shark fishing which was a shocker since I paid for a redfish and speckled trout trip. They never admitted this even though I figured it out. He keep saying the redfish moved way out even though every fishing report says they are even catching them at the beachfront. Second, some of the fish we ended up using for bait and he later at the end of our trip told the deck hand to go put them on ice for tomorrow's trip, were keepers. This was a trip that was supposed to let us take some any meet we catch. Used all of our own catch to bait up and later keep for themselves to save a buck. $600 trip plus tax and they couldn't even show up with $5 in bait. Also, the captain pulled the trio early saying our paid time was up. Then made a comment as we were basically leaving . Saying he left because he "didn't feel like the fish were gonna bite anymore". You don't have to fish much fo know that is dumb. You can sit there for 8 hours sometime and catch 3o fish in 2o minutes. So an extra 45 minutes could've been when we caught all of our fish.
