BOOOOOOOM, got us an April tiger the other night! Conditions looked perfect to send a big bait out deep and it payed off with this beautiful 11’1” female tiger! Book your trip this summer, it’s shaping out to be an amazing year of fishing!

We been on em on em all spring! This is our highest the year and should hold the title for anybody in our area for a while, unless we get another 🫣

Cory was a great guide. He really tried to put us on fish on what was otherwise a slow day. He is a good guy with good stories. I will use him again next time I am in Port A.

Ruben was very easy to get along with and knowledgeable on the area we were fishing ( inshore )! He has a very nice boat, and we caught fish on a tough day! He was in touch with other Guides during the day to get info on the best areas! We will fish again on our next trip to the area! Barry W

Great morning with Travis. Got us onto fish straight away and our two boys loved it. A 30” redfish started things off and we finished with a 5-6ft alligator gar, with plenty of others between them. Highly recommend a trip out with Travis!

Had a fantastic time fishing with Robert in Rockport last Wednesday. He was knowledgeable, professional, and made the whole experience easy and enjoyable from start to finish. You can tell he really knows the area and works hard to put you on fish. Great communication, well-organized trip, and just an all-around great guide. We had a lot of fun and created some awesome memories out on the water. Highly recommend booking with Robert if you’re in Rockport — we’ll definitely be back!

Amazing captain! We went on 4 hour with myself and three teens. Ruben knew right where the fish were and soon after we arrived we were catching fish. Would definitely and will in future recommend Ruben.
