Welcome to Saltwater Adventures.  Captain Guy W. Focke provides year-round bay fishing expeditions and seasonal tarpon and shark fishing expeditions out of Galveston, Texas. 

Bay fishing expeditions are available year-round in West Bay, East Bay, and Trinity Bay.  Speckled Trout and Redfish abound in these bays.  Most of Captain Guy's bay fishing expeditions feature drift fishing from the boat, with all bait and tackle provided.

Tarpon season runs from July through October and Saltwater Adventures anxiously awaits its start each year.  Tarpon are extremely powerful and acrobatic fish, providing the novice or sport fisherman with a memorable experience.

Saltwater Adventures also provides shark fishing expeditions.  In the summer months it is easy to catch 20 to 40 sharks a day ranging from 25 lbs up to 400lbs and over 6 feet in length. Typically the sharks caught by Saltwater Adventures are Black tips and Spinner sharks. These sharks are quite fun to catch on light tackle.

So contact Captain Guy Focke at Saltwater Adventures today and schedule the fishing expedition of a lifetime.

Fun, Personal, and Professional….That's what you'll experience when you book a trip with Captain Steve Hillman. He has lived and fished his entire life on Galveston Bay and knows where to find the fish. From wade fishing for trophy trout with artificials to fishing the near offshore waters for giant tarpon, he will work hard to make it a trip to remember.
He will cater to your specific needs.... Family trips, corporate outings, buddy trips, or serious experienced trophy trout hunters. Parties of any size can be accommodated (Please give at least 3 weeks notice for parties of more than 4 persons).

Capt Michael Lauret fishes the entire Galveston bay complex, year round depending on the fish location and method the client wants to use. 

I either wade fish or drift taking into account the client's desire and the location of the fish at the time. I use primarily artificial baits for fishing throughout the bays, but when fishing the jetties I will use live bait.

Kids are welcomed and encouraged as I used to take my sons fishing twice a week for years until they started going themselves, so kids are more than welcome.

I am used to clients that have never fished and I enjoy watching them quickly learn to catch fish as if they have done it all of their lives.

The Capt. John is a 75 foot long by 27 foot wide all aluminum catamaran. It is Galveston's fastest and most modern party boat. Its cruising speed is around 22 knots (25 mph) when fully loaded. The extended operating range available on day trips, with its great speed, will enable the Capt. John to fish additional areas that are not presently accessible. Day trips will take up to 83 fishermen offshore, while extended length trips of 36 hours to 60 hours will be able to accommodate up to 40. Bunks for the 40 fishermen make these overnight trips a comfortable reality.
