The boats you will be fishing from include a 2008 NauticStar Center Console and Glastron Center Console, both fully loaded to get you to your fishing destination safely and quickly.

We are a family-friendly charter so we welcome families with children as well as anyone looking to charter a private boat to get the most out of your Gulf fishing experience. With more than one boat, we can also accommodate your family gatherings or corporate groups with ease. We offer half-day and full-day trips to accommodate your needs.

Get Hooked Charters offers some of the most exciting fishing on the Gulf Coast from the bay, jetty and adrenaline filled shark trips and close rig trips where you are sure to catch a variety of fish depending on the season.

Bay trips are great family trips with a short enjoyable 15 minute ride to the jetty and lots of fun filled fishing time where the catch is usually Redfish, Trout, Drum, Whiting, Jacks, Mackerel and Sharks.

Shark Trips are packed with adrenaline and are sure to please as you reel in that big catch! We will follow dragging shrimp boats and fish chum lines or anchor up in one of our special "shark spots" depending on the water and weather conditions. While on a shark trip you can also expect other species of fish such as possible large Tarpon, Redfish and many others. The expected catch will be shark species such as Black Tip, Sharp Nose, Bonnett Head and many others.

Close Rig trips are up to 9 miles offshore where you will tie up to the rigs or drift fish to catch AngelFish, Ling, King Mackerels, Sharks, Triggers, and many others. If the conditions are right, you will enjoy clean clearer waters where you will be able to see the fish as they gather around the boat and see your catch as you get it close to the surface making for even more excitement. This trip is great for people who want to enjoy some of the larger offshore fishing species without having to ride hours to get there.

Trophy Bull Red Season runs September through November and is a very action packed catch as you reel in these big fish that are pure muscle and put up a fight that will have you begging for mercy!! These fish can get as large as 50 inches in length with the average catch being about 35 inches in length.

We also offer Flounder trips that start in October and go through December. November is the best month of the season usually bringing in an average of more than 30 to 40 flounder per trip depending on the number of people fishing in your group!!

Captain Mike Short is looking forward to providing you with an action packed day of fishing with lots of memories for you and your group.
