I’ve been fishing the waters around Galveston for as long as I can remember. From the time I could walk, I was out on the water with my dad, chasing fish and building a passion that would one day turn into my life’s work. What started as a childhood hobby has grown into a full-time career—one that I truly love. I’ve run thousands of fishing trips over the years, working with some of the largest and most well-known charter companies on the Gulf Coast. Now, it’s my turn to take the helm and run trips under my own name, bringing my personal touch and passion to every single outing.
At Galveston Saltwater Charters, it’s just me—your captain, your guide, and someone who genuinely loves to help others experience the thrill of fishing in our rich Texas Gulf Coast waters. Whether you’re new to fishing or an experienced angler, I tailor each trip to your group’s needs. Families with kids, couples, groups of friends, or solo anglers—everyone is welcome aboard. I take pride in making each trip memorable, whether we’re chasing Redfish across the flats, battling big Sharks, or reeling in Speckled Trout in the bays.
Fishing isn’t just a job for me—it’s a lifestyle. I enjoy teaching the next generation of anglers and sharing the excitement that comes with every catch. Nothing makes me happier than seeing smiles when the rods bend and the fish come over the rail. I’m patient, friendly, and always ready to share tips or talk fishing between bites.
I offer private fishing charters in Galveston designed to give you a more personal experience. No big groups or overcrowded boats—just your crew, your trip, and all the action you can handle. We fish with light tackle, live bait, and proven techniques to maximize your chances of success. I know these waters well, and I’ll do everything I can to put you on the fish.
