The jetties are where Galveston fishing gets serious. Long walls of rock reach out into the Gulf, and the moving water along them pulls bait and the fish that chase it. Four hours gives you time to work the rocks and push nearshore when conditions line up.
Depending on season, you’re in range of bull redfish, speckled trout, sheepshead, black drum, Spanish mackerel and hard-pulling jack crevalle. Your captain reads the tide and the water and puts you on the best of it that day.
Pick your ride. The 26-foot Wave Warrior and Pole Dancer are quick and nimble. Step up to Instagator, the 38-foot Blackfin, or the flagship Wave Dancer 2, a 46-foot Bertram, when you want a bigger boat under you.
All four boats run this trip. The 26-foot Wave Warrior and Pole Dancer are center consoles, so you can fish 360 degrees around the boat, which makes the jetties easier and more productive; they include 3 guests, with extra guests $100 each. Instagator and Wave Dancer 2 include up to 6 guests and put a bigger, federally permitted sportfishing yacht under you. Call us and we’ll match you up.
Typical jetty and nearshore targets include bull redfish, speckled trout, sheepshead, black drum, Spanish mackerel and jack crevalle. What’s biting changes with season, tide and weather, and no honest captain promises a species.
