Out on the Gulf-side flats and near‑shore channels off Galveston, a 30' Contender run by Out Cast Fishin Charters turns a morning or afternoon into a focused Grand Slam pursuit: trout, redfish and flounder. The trip is built to be straightforward—the boat, tackle and know‑how come from the captain, you bring a license and the snacks—so anglers spend their time fighting fish instead of fussing with logistics.

THE TARGETS

The Grand Slam: Trout, Redfish, Flounder

This Galveston charter deliberately targets the Big Three—trout, redfish and flounder—on near‑shore grounds, giving anglers a concentrated chance at varied, hard‑fighting species in a single outing.

THE BOAT & CREW

Hassle‑free fishing on a 30' Contender

The trip is delivered as a turnkey experience: the boat and all fishing gear are supplied aboard the 30' Contender, and the crew will filet and bag your catch so you leave with fillets ready to take home.

THE FORMAT

Half‑day or full‑day options

Choose either a shorter 4‑hour session or extend to a 6‑hour full day; rates reflect the format and include a base party of anglers with extra spots available per boat.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

The rhythm is simple and deliberate: launch from Galveston, run to near‑shore flats and channels where the Big Three congregate, and spend concentrated time casting, drifting and sighting fish. Because the trip is set up as an all‑inclusive charter—tackle, boat and processing handled by the crew—most of the day is about reading water and hooking fish rather than managing gear.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this charter suits best, and who should reconsider.

Small groups & couplesThe base rates are structured around small parties (pricing includes 1–3 anglers), making this a good match for couples or small friend groups who want a focused fishing session.
