    Amazing trip! Chandler is personable and makes the trip a great time! Even before the trip, we communicated well and had the day planned out very well! He knows his stuff! Highly recommend!

    Trip: Sight Casting The Flats

    Great day out fishing with Capt. Tommy. He took great care to make sure we had an enjoyable time. It was like we were with a good friend out to drown some fish for dinner. If you want to find Reds, he knows where to go. Don't hesitate. Book him.

    Trip: Half Day Rockport Slam

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great time on a guided fly fishing trip in Port A with Chandler. It was a windy day, which made casting and poling the skiff a bit challenging, but Chandler stayed positive and was super helpful. I didn’t catch any fish this time, but he gave me great tips to improve my casting. The skiff didn’t have a seat, so I sat on the floor which is totally fine for me solo but something to consider if you’re going with someone else or need more comfort. Overall, a good experience and I’d definitely book with him again!

    A little bit of a tough day. Saw lots of fish but they just were not biting, but Travis went above and beyond and found a pocket of tailing Red. He found fish and put me on them and that is exactly what you pay a guid to do. Great job!!!

    Trip: Wade Fishing Artificial ONLY Trip

    Redfish Success with Captain Tommy – Rockport, TX Despite a windy day and high water near Aransas Pass, Captain Tommy put us right on the fish. The flats were tough, but he still knocked out a two-man limit of redfish in just three hours—no small feat under those conditions. His personality was a great mix of humor and local know-how. While he didn’t spill too many trade secrets (understandably!), he kept the trip engaging and productive. If you’re chasing reds around Rockport, he’s absolutely worth booking. Solid guide, solid results.

    Had a great time. Slow start but s great finish. Probably the weather. But was the most fish we have caught in a long time. Hit the grand slam. We really enjoyed the trip Travis. Thank you so much. We will be back!!! And don't forget, if you find that cork let me know what it was and how big. Trey, thanks for your help in getting everything worked out on the booking. You got us a great guide. 👍👍👍
