Captain Tim knows these waters like the back of his hand, and he's ready to put you on some solid redfish action in Galveston Bay. This isn't just another charter – it's four hours of serious fishing with a guide who lives and breathes these flats. Whether you're bringing the kids for their first taste of saltwater fishing or you're a seasoned angler looking to dial in your redfish game, Tim's got the setup to make it happen. The best part? You can pick your poison with morning, afternoon, or evening trips, so you're never stuck with a time that doesn't work for your schedule.
You'll be targeting keeper redfish in that sweet 20-28 inch slot, plus you get one bonus fish with a tag if you're lucky enough to hook into a bull. Once you've filled your redfish limit, the fun doesn't stop – Tim will keep you busy chasing other inshore species that call Galveston Bay home. The charter handles up to four anglers, which means you're not fighting for space or dealing with a crowded boat. Tim provides all the essential gear including rods, reels, and tackle that's dialed in for these waters. He also throws in water and ice to keep you comfortable, and if you want to try your hand at blue crabbing, that's included at no extra charge. Veterans get a well-deserved 10% discount, and Tim welcomes both kids and pets on board. At the end of the day, he'll clean your catch so you can head home with fillets ready for the dinner table.
Galveston Bay fishing is all about reading the water and adapting to conditions. Tim works the grass flats, shell reefs, and channel edges where redfish patrol for easy meals. Depending on the tide and time of year, you might be sight fishing in shallow water or working deeper structure with cut bait. The bay's mix of fresh and saltwater creates perfect habitat for baitfish, which draws predators like a magnet. You'll learn to work soft plastics around structure, present live bait in current breaks, and recognize the signs that fish are feeding. The technique varies with the season – summer might have you working early morning topwater action, while winter calls for slower presentations in deeper water. Tim's local knowledge means you're not wasting time in empty water, and he'll adjust tactics based on what the fish are telling him that day.
Redfish are the main event here, and for good reason. These copper-colored fighters are built for the shallow water game, with broad tails that let them explode off flats when they feel the hook. In Galveston Bay, slot-sized reds typically run 3-7 pounds and will test your drag system with powerful runs toward structure. Spring and fall offer the most consistent action as fish move with baitfish migrations, but summer brings sight fishing opportunities when reds cruise visible in skinny water. Winter fishing slows but produces some of the biggest slot fish of the year. What makes redfish special is their willingness to eat – they'll hit live shrimp, cut mullet, soft plastics, and topwater plugs depending on conditions. The bonus tagged fish program adds extra excitement since these oversized bulls can push 15-20 pounds and provide arm-burning fights that'll have you talking for years. Beyond the slot limit regulations, redfish are perfect table fare with firm, mild meat that works in everything from blackened fillets to fish tacos.
