It's been slow as far as customers, but when we are out there fishing has been great! We are catching reds, black drum and big trout. Popping cork fishing has tested us well on the drift 🎣🎣

the season just opened up down here in South Padre Island, and we had a fantastic day. We did an afternoon hunt. I had three hunters we shot our limit of redheads limit of blue bills and a couple buffalo head. I didn't take a lot of pictures today because we were a little busy, but I did get a bunch of GoPro footage that I'm still trying to download but we seen a ton of docs today. Weather was beautiful. It was 70° a little overcast and we had a nice light wind. The birds decoyed really well if you're interested in coming down to South Padre Island

With colder weather in northern states, the ducks are showing up here in South Texas. Today, I spent a couple of hours at one spot watching flock after flock fly by, and I got really excited. Our season opens back up for the second split on December 14. Since we already have ducks everywhere, January should be phenomenal for anyone wanting to come to Texas to shoWith colder weather in northern states, the ducks are showing up here in South Texas.

Mike knew the bay very well and did his best to put us on fish. I only had two issues with the trip. It might just be his personality, but I found him to be condescending when I asked questions. I also think he fishes too much. It was like we paid to take him fishing.

What an outstanding time that we had with Captain Mike. This was our very first time boat fishing and we had done so at the request of my son for his 17th birthday. Captain Mike was incredibly accommodating, very easy to communicate with and more importantly knowledgeable when it comes to fishing. He was incredibly patient, taught each person in our group of four how to properly cast and really made sure that we had a good time (and also made sure we caught our limit, I have no doubt he would have stayed out there all day to make it happen.) I'm new at this but I am sure this is the type of experience you hope for with this sort of activity. Book this gut y'all. I PROMISE you that you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Captain Mike for a memorable experience!!!!!
