    Need recommendations for Salt Water Tip

    My cousin wants to go deep sea fishing in June either out of Galveston or Corpus. I have gone out of Galveston before and had a good time, but I would like some recommendations on who to use in the Galveston Area or the Corpus Area. They want to go on a Party Boat for either a 4 hour or an 12 hour trip.

    Right now I have 2 good referrals for Galveston

    Williams Charter Service and Galveston Party Boats

    Anyone have any recommendations for these locations or any locaitons in texas such as port aransas or any other place?

    Someone else mentioned him as well, I checked our the website and it looks like a 1st class operation

    Hey D go out of Corpus You be in deeper water faster and get more bang for your buck. Going ten miles out down there is like going a 100 mile out of Galveston. You'll get more fishing time in.

    Thanks, i went out of galveston before, but I have yet to fish out of corpus. Should be a fun trip, I would love to stock the freezer with some good eats.

    I've used Captain Elliots of of Freeport about 6 times. The reason I like This charter service is because the boat ride is shorter than Galveston plus I can drive down the morning of the trip.

    The boat ride out to deep water is still more than three hours.

    I found a nice looking place in Port Isabel ( Dolphin Docks Charters ) they do bay and deep sea trips for a very reasonable price and the boats they have look very well maintained. I am going to do a little more research on this but the Port Isabel area looks really nice.
