About Us

What’s made Eagle Point Fishing Camp unique since 1929 is its location and business model.  Because it's in the center of the Galveston Bay, EPFC allows anglers to conveniently fish a vast stretch of water spanning from Houston to Galveston.  Using the same full-service concept as its date of establishment, EPFC has proven for nearly a century that easy access to the water combined with a skilled staff creates the perfect fishing experience.   Along with the boat ramp, boat storage, live bait for purchase, gas dock, tackle shop, and RV park, EPFC has always had a fleet of shrimp boats to supply the bait that so many of their regular customers desire.  Their successful commercial shrimping business has been an intricate part of what makes EPFC unique. 

Eric Valentino, General Manager

Since he was four years-old, Eric Valentino spent every summer working at Eagle Point Fishing Camp with his dad, Johnny Valentino, Jr., and shrimping with his Grandpa Johnny Gray Valentino, so it’s no surprise that life on the water became his passion.  Eric always knew he would take over the family operation.  After spending 17 years in sales, he hung up his suit and tie and decided to get back to his shorts and T-shirts.  In 2013, he became General Manager of EPFC and is now responsible for continuing the growth of the business. 

Johnny Valentino, Retired (But Always Working)

Eagle Point Fishing Camp is part of Johnny Valentino.    While growing up in San Leon in the 1950s, he spent his summer months on the water shrimping with his father, Johnny Gray Valentino, in Galveston Bay and on the Gulf of Mexico.  After college and a stint in the army, Johnny thought he was destined to be a football coach or an FBI agent, but when he returned from being stationed in Germany, he received an offer from his Uncle Bubba Valentino to take over Eagle Point Fishing Camp.  Fate stepped in, and Johnny knew where his future would lead him for the next forty years.   Johnny was the driving force in making EPFC the best full-service fishing camp in Texas.  After working tirelessly to create such a success,  Johnny “retired” in 2013.  Now, he spends his days off creating his own hours, which happen to be to EPFC’s benefit.   He’s usually helping with anything and everything at the camp.
