Brawley’s Guide Service is perfect for families, making it easy to introduce your kids to the excitement of fishing.

The day’s adventure takes place on a 22’ Blue Wave bay boat, designed for a comfortable and productive outing on Matagorda Bay fishing trips.

Before your trip, remember to purchase a local fishing license for each member of your group, as required for all Matagorda TX fishing guides. Some species, like Redfish and Black Drum, may have specific regulations or require special tags, so it's a good idea to check in advance or ask your guide for details.


Pack the essentials, including non-spray sunscreen, sunglasses, and bottled water, to stay comfortable under the sun. While alcohol is permitted in moderation, stick to beer or other light beverages, avoiding hard liquor and glass bottles to keep the fun and safety in check.
