Josh and I had an awesome afternoon hunt with this big cold front that came in. There are ducks absolutely everywhere - big flocks of redheads, shovelers, pintails, and blue bills. The tides have been a little struggle, but my Mud Boat is running really well and I can get...

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

We had the most wonderful experience with Captain Marc (and Brenda). My son and I went on a half-day excursion in Novemeber during our Thanksgiving trip and it was such a great bonding time for the two of us. Captain Marc is super generous, knowledgable and patient. We highly recommend him and his fishing guidance:). My son was particularly excited about having his trout cleaned and getting to serve it to us that evening. All around A+.

We did a cast and blast trip with Glenn, and from start to finish it was an incredible experience. It was my first time duck hunting, and Glenn made the entire day feel effortless. He’s one of the most genuine, down to earth people you’ll meet, and he really knows his stuff. On the fishing side, he put us on the fish immediately. We limited out on trout, picked up some reds, and even caught a flounder we had to release. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip feel smooth and enjoyable. And the duck hunting… I haven’t had that much fun in a long time. It was relaxing, exciting, and just an unforgettable experience. The birds were on today, and we knocked down a limit within the first 10–15 minutes. I’d never seen so many ducks up close.. hearing them land and work the decoys was something I’ll never forget. The whole time, we felt guided, taken care of, and genuinely welcomed. We had great conversations, plenty of laughs, and just an all-around amazing time. Thanks again, Glenn. We’ll be seeing you again in a few weeks. 10/10 highly recommended.

Heck of a time with Jerrid! Friendly outgoing guy. Highly recommend him I promise you you’ll have a good time. He knew where to go even when fishing was hard at times. Still left with a bag of trout and an awesome sized red fish.
