We are still seeing good numbers of Red Grouper! Also super stoked with opening of triggerfish! As always we have plenty of vermillion snapper around to add to the haul! Mild temps and good fishing make for great days!

It's been a pretty slow two weeks. We've had a lot of crappy conditions, so it's been tough getting out, but as far as the fish bite, it's been really good.

Brandon was phenomenal. My wife and I had such a fun time. Our first time fishing this way, and he was so accommodating. Moved us from spot to spot trying to help us get a Red Fish to take to dinner and we got one! He was also very nice and kept the good vibes and conversations going the entire time! I would recommend 10 times out of 10!

Zack is a consummate professional, with a hometown feel. He was clear and very helpful in preparing us for the hunt. In addition, he placed us in a fantastic location to succeed in our hunt. I will definitely be coming back and also recommending him to our friends and family.

A great day. A great skipper! We caught a bunch of fish. I would charter with Chris again. It was my 7 year old grandson’s first fishing trip. I’m glad we booked with Chris.

I booked this for my husband and our oldest son for Father’s Day. My husband has always wanted to do a fishing excursion. They had the best time, we took their catch to The Edge where they prepared it for us. I highly recommend Lonestar Charter and Captain Chuch

Such a great experience! With a beginner fisher and a seasoned fisherman he handled us both super well. Very attentive and proactive. Didn’t make us sit in the same spot for hours, really got to move around the bay and catch what’s out there.
