Glen Allen Goff came to Galveston, Texas for a carpentry repair job on Payco Marine after Hurricane Alicia. He was semi-adopted by the owner, Herschel Payne, and Glen stayed on to learn the marina and bait business.

among the best people, he\u2019d ever known. Glen never met a stranger, no matter their gender, their ethnicity, their age, their ability, their status before the law, or their station in life. If he is to be remembered for any one thing, it will be his gift of promiscuous friendship.<\/p>\n
Today Galveston Bait & Tackle is operated by Pam Goff, wife of Glen Goff, her partners Billy Howell, and JB Melina our shrimper who has been fishing shrimp for years, and we are very proud to have him.<\/p>\n
