Fishing Charters Galveston offers bay &amp; jetty trips, offshore, Red Snapper and Dolphin Trips that you together with your family and friends will surely enjoy!&nbsp;Operated by Captain William Berg this charter is fun and educational, and most of all productive!&nbsp;Your captain for the day will do his best to provide you with the style of fishing that you are looking for. It does not matter if you are looking to fill the freezer and put fish on the table or want the thrill of hooking some of the more sporting species, they sure know the areas to look for. Most days there is time to do both.&nbsp;&nbsp;There will be times when your captain might suggest a specific species to fish for or how to fish for the species, he knows should be biting to give you the best opportunity to hook quality fish.&nbsp;&nbsp;The full day charters allow enough time to try a couple assorted styles of fishing to increase your odds at multiple species. Just by being on the water for a full day, your odds of a great catch improve because the captain has time to change locations, or fishing techniques and go further if the fishing has changed from the day before.&nbsp;While many of the species in the gulf are suitable for the table (everyone’s taste is different) there are other species that are more for sport and put up a good fight. Anything is possible on a full day trip – King mackerel, cobia, dolphin fish, barracuda, bonito, wahoo, amberjack, trigger fish, flounder, red snapper, Vermillion snapper, lane snapper, grouper and more. We cannot guarantee what fish will be biting, these are all species you might catch by trusting your captain to know what is biting the best.
