Premier Fishing Guide Services

Hingle's Guide Service fishes the waters of Galveston, Texas. With its aquatic life, saltwater habitat, and outstanding angling opportunities, Galveston will make you want to always come back for more.  We offer fun, beginner friendly trips on Galveston bay. 

Enjoy your fishing trip with Captain Darrell Hingle aboard a 24 ft boat, which is powered by a 200 hp Suzuki engine. It can comfortably take up to five guests and is fully rigged with state-of-the-art navigational electronics, including a VHF radio, a fish finder and GPS

. It's also equipped with a livewell to keep the bait swimming.

Whether it's Redfish, Trout, Flounder, or Shark you're after – the Captain has all the knowledge and the equipment to get it done. He has been fishing the Galveston area since he was a child and knows all the hottest spots where the fish are hiding. 

Each trip with Hingle's Guide Service comes inclusive with all the necessary fishing equipment to make a great catch possible, such as rods, reels, tackle, lures, and live bait. The Captain will also clean and fillet the catch for you to take home for dinner or just fill the freezer. 

For your adventure in Galveston, you will only need to bring your fishing licenses, food, and drinks. For added convenience, Captain Darrell can also pick customers up from Crystal Beach and Port Bolivar.

Do we fish if it's raining or windy?  Safety is a priority.  If there are severe storms in the area or if the wind is out of control, I'll suggest we delay or try to reschedule the trip.  There's no sense in going out and being uncomfortable, and I will never put us in danger.  But if it's just a little rain, let's go – the fish are already wet!
