Experience the incredible fly fishing opportunities for redfish near Houston, Texas with Galveston fly fishing guide, Capt. Jeremy Chavez. The marshes and flats of Galveston Bay, located just a short drive away from Houston, Texas, produce some of the best fly fishing and light tackle sight fishing opportunities for redfish on the entire Texas coast. Galveston has a vast array of exciting fishing scenarios: from cruising and tailing redfish in clear water over sand and grass to belly-crawling and schooling redfish over mud and shell. On any given trip shots at speckled trout, flounder, jack crevalle, black drum and sheepshead can also arise.
