Cade was awesome! He put us on the fish early and we didn’t get off them until we headed back to the dock! We caught Spanish mackerel, spade fish, and catfish mostly. We had 17 keepers that we took back and cooked. Great captain & guide!

My Family and I had Fantastic Fishing Experience with Captain Arturo…!!! He was absolutely amazing with his knowledge and patient with showing the proper techniques to catch an abundance of fish. So much, that other Captains came to the spot where we were fishing lol. Looking forward to the next trip with my family to South Padre and I will definitely be planning my fishing trip moving forward with Arturo 🎣

Alex is a consummate professional; demonstrates the uncommon ability to banter with and keep kids on the fish while being relatable to adults. If you want your crew to experience a great time and remain comfortable, this is your guy.

If you want to have a great time and catch lots of fish, look no further!! This was such a fun experience for our family of 4. Captain Heath was the best guide ever!! We caught lots of fish and even got a chance to do a little snorkeling. We had the best time and will definitely be booking with him again asap!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an outstanding trip with Captain Anthony. The weather forecast ended up being way off, and we were dealing with 3–4 foot swells, but that didn’t stop him from putting us on the trout. His experience and determination really showed, and he worked hard to make sure we had a successful day on the water. I took my three boys, and every one of us had an incredible time. The boat was clean, comfortable, and handled the rough conditions with ease. Captain Anthony was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire trip enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for a captain who knows how to find fish even when the conditions aren’t ideal, I highly recommend booking with Captain Anthony. We’ll definitely be back!
