Fish Tejas Salt and discover some of the country’s best inshore fishing. Explore the Galveston Bay complex to fish for trout, redfish, and flounder with artificial or live bait. Whether you are a beginner or a pro, your experienced captain will do everything he can to make sure the trip is tailored just for you. Captain Steve Hammack has fished the Texas Gulf Coast since 1996. He loves sharing his experience and knowledge with all kinds of anglers. He is just as adept with helping kids land their first catch as he is with running a tournament fishing trip. Drift fishing from the boat is fun, but there's nothing like the experience of watching a topwater blowup up close and personal while you're in the water wading. Tejas Salt is a unique charter service because Captain Steve gives you the opportunity to do both based on your preference. The JH Performance 240 is the perfect boat for Galveston fishing. This smooth-riding bay boat, outfitted with the latest electronics, has a quiet hull and low draft, so your captain can position you to fish or wade in all the best spots.
