Identity Verified
Galveston Flounder Company is the local go-to for unique Galveston fishing charters that focus on flounder gigging and bowfishing. Led by Captain Tim Woernley, a licensed and insured guide with over 40 years of family experience on Galveston Bay, the company offers specialized trips designed to put you on the fish and create lasting memories. Whether you’re new to fishing or a seasoned angler, Captain Tim combines knowledge, skill, and top-quality equipment to deliver a trip that’s both fun and productive.
When it comes to Galveston bowfishing trips, flexibility is key. Each adventure can be customized around your schedule and preferences. You might start in the evening by targeting redfish and trout before completing your Grand Slam with flounder gigging after dark. Or you can launch before daylight, gig fish under the stars, and finish the morning with rod-and-reel action as the sun rises over the bay. No matter your style, every trip showcases the beauty and variety of Galveston Bay.
For rod-and-reel fishing, anglers can expect Shimano reels, Falcon rods, and a selection of lures ranging from touts to topwaters, as well as live bait kept fresh with an onboard oxygen system. For gigging, trips include 10’ bamboo gigs, 8’ aluminum gigs, and fishing bows. Guests will also enjoy gigging from a 20’ custom-built flounder boat designed for comfort and success. For those who prefer a more traditional approach, walking gigs and lights are available to stalk flounder on foot.
Flounder gigging in Galveston is a Texas tradition, and Galveston Flounder Company delivers it with modern comfort. The custom flounder boat is fully equipped with 10 Jerry’s LED lights, a Honda fan motor, and advanced Garmin electronics, including a 10” Echomap at the console and a 9” Livescope mounted up front. This setup maximizes visibility and efficiency while keeping anglers dry and comfortable throughout the night. Every detail is handled for you, from bait to fish cleaning, so you can simply enjoy the action and take home fresh fillets.
Choosing Galveston Flounder Company means fishing with a guide who values both safety and satisfaction. With decades of local knowledge and a family legacy rooted in Galveston Bay, Captain Tim offers more than just a fishing trip—he delivers a personalized experience steeped in tradition. Book a Galveston fishing charter, bowfishing trip, or flounder gigging adventure and experience the bay like never before.
