Whether you're new to fishing or bringing years of experience, we’re here to help you make the most of your time on the bay.

Based in scenic Tiki Island, our location offers quick and convenient access to some of the best fishing grounds on the Texas Gulf Coast.

Captain John brings over a decade of hands-on knowledge navigating the Galveston Bay system. Whether you prefer drift fishing, anchoring, or wade fishing with live bait, he’ll tailor each trip to match your style and goals. Families are always welcome — kids are outfitted with life jackets, and extra care is taken to make sure everyone has a safe and comfortable time on the water.

Our 24’ center console boat seats up to 5 guests and comes fully equipped with rods, reels, tackle, and all necessary gear. Live bait is available upon request. Just bring a valid Texas fishing license (for guests age 17 and up), sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and your choice of snacks or drinks. We provide water and Gatorade onboard to help you stay refreshed.
