Buffalo Bayou Fishing Champs

The Species We Target

Red Fish

Blue Catfish

Red Fish are the most iconic fish in the Gulf Coast and they're right here on the rivers and bayous.

No need to go offshore for these!

Blue Catfish

There's nothing like pulling up a GIANT from the depths! Mostly active in cold weather, RIGHT NOW is the perfect time for bayou fishing in Houston as they come out of deeper water to eat.

White Bass

Alligator Gar

Right now is the PERFECT time to fill a cooler with white bass for the fish fry!

(Seasonal. White bass tend to slow down at the beginning of Summer)

Alligator Gar

A truly giant species of fish we can catch right in the heart of the city! Alligator Gar fishing is a must when in town!

(Seasonal, Alligator Gar are mainly active during warmer months of the year, usually from April through November.)

TYPES OF TRIPS

Buffalo Bayou by Boat

Right in the middle of the city of Houston is the Buffalo Bayou. This waterway holds an incredible variety of species making fishing on the Bayou a great way to see the city and land some big fish!

River Fishing by Boat

Buffalo Bayou by Boat

River Fishing is great for those who would like to get out of the city and enjoy some fresh air and catch some big fish. Only 30 minutes from Downtown Houston, the San Jacinto River provides us with the opportunity to step out into nature without having to travel a great distance out of the city.

Fishing on Foot

Our On Foot guide specializes in fishing from the bank to access areas that are not accessible by boat. Fishing on foot allows us to accommodate more guests than would be possible by boat. So call up your buddies and Let's Go Fishing!

Adventure Is Near

Houston is WILD

Houston is the fourth largest city in the country, yet it still offers hidden wilderness within its city limits. Tucked away behind steep banks and tall trees, the bayous provide wild experiences without ever needing to leave town. Some stretches of the bayous are so secluded that you might completely forget you’re in the city! For those looking to explore the natural beauty, our fishing charter in Houston specializes in bayou fishing, including exciting Alligator Gar fishing opportunities. Join us for a unique experience that showcases the best of buffalo bayou fishing champs and the serene fishing Houston bayous have to offer.

Buffalo Bayou Fishing Champs At Your Service

We're definitely not the first to do this. Alligator Gar fishing charters exist throughout the state of Texas and other states.

However, very few, if any, take guests fishing in urban environments. Fishing in Downtown Houston may not have been your ideal fishing trip but the bayous save guests the drive out to remote areas of Texas to target large species of fish.

And our prices are hard to beat so Let's Go Fishing!
