Hunting here in South Padre Island has been really good after the cold front came through. Jason and Kaeden are excellent shots, and we were picking out the biggest Spragues this morning. We had multiple pintails land in the decoys, and we let them fly off looking for trophies this...

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...

My Dad and I had a great day of fishing. Although there was rain around Captain Romey was able to put us on some fish while avoiding the rain. We were fortunate enough to land a 40 inch Red on light tackle which was the CHERRY on top of this day.

Rey was an absolute great captain, very knowledgeable, very confident, professional, allowed us to have an awesome time. Knew his was around the boat and water. Helped us catch some great fish. I had my 4 year old along, who loves to fish and Rey was great with him as well. I would recommend anyone to go with him.

Trip: 5hr Power Fishing Trip
★★★★★
All I can say is this was a great trip. Alfonso worked his tail off trying to find some clear water in 20 to 25 mph winds but we managed to get 3 fish. Even with all the winds my wife and I loved the experience with Alfonso. You can tell his passion is fishing and teaching you all he knows about Flounder gigging. We will be using Alfonso again and hopefully less winds next time.

Trip: Laguna Madre Hookfest
★★★★★
Ive been out fishing with many fishing guides from Destin, Fl to Venice, La to now South padre and every where in between. Fred took his time, confident in his technique, experienced in his teachings and didn’t seem to care of the clock regardless of how many fish were in the cooler. If you want to go fishing in south padre book anyone, if you want to go fishing and learn a thing or two, have good conversation and leave with something gained, book with Fred.
