Very few know the waters off the coast of Galveston like Captain Rick. He has been fishing the Gulf Coast since he was 5 years old and competitively in tournaments since 1997. Captain Rick always wanted to run a small charter business, so he and his family decided to start one. Captain Rick has been leading folks on trips for over 10 years and hopes to continue for years to come!
Captain Rick enjoys throwing lures in the Bay, and he believes that the weather conditions and targeted fish determine what style he'll use. But if you like using some particular styles, he can make that happen too. Additionally, no matter what trip you choose to go on with Captain Rick, you can be sure you will have all of the equipment you need.

The fellas and I had an awesome trip with Captain Rick! Caught a mess of fish, but by far the best were the Blacktip's! It was intense! Would definitely recommend, and cant wait to be back!

Our party of four had a really good time bay fishing with Rick. He’s a lot of fun and is very knowledgeable about the waters in the area. We caught a variety of fish which he cleaned and filleted for us. We’d love to take an offshore trip with him!

The trip didn’t work out as planned, but we did get out on the water with a good, experienced Captian that put us on fish. The day worked out and we had fun. Once the staff at Captian Experiences found out about the issues that caused thetrip to “not be as expected”, they went out of their way to make things right. I would definitely recommend this company to help you find quality guides.

The trip was great. We booked a 3 person trip with Capt Rick but we went fishing with Capt Doug. It was windy that day so the water was choppy, but we still cause 2 bill redfish about 36 inches each and a black drum about 30 inches around the Galvenston Jetties. We will definitely book another trip when we renew the fishing licenses and get new red drum tags.
