About Your Guide

Profile photo of Captain Experiences guide Arturo Calderas

Arturo Calderas

Independent Guide 7 years of exp.
Captain Arturo has been fishing for more than 2 decades now. In addition to being a charter captain, he's also been an avid tournament angler for the last 5 years and has had his share of awards to boot. For him, the best part of his job is when he fishes with people who haven't fished before, or when someone catches a fish they've never caught before. Seeing those expressions on people's faces is much better than catching the fish himself!

My Family and I had Fantastic Fishing Experience with Captain Arturo…!!! He was absolutely amazing with his knowledge and patient with showing the proper techniques to catch an abundance of fish. So much, that other Captains came to the spot where we were fishing lol. Looking forward to the next trip with my family to South Padre and I will definitely be planning my fishing trip moving forward with Arturo 🎣

Had a great time with Captain Arturo! Since most of us were new to saltwater fishing, he did a great job of explaining and teaching us. Captain Arturo was also a fun guy to be on the boat with.

We really enjoyed our fishing charter with Arturo. The winds were hard but made for good fishing and he knew right where to go. I would recommend him for any fishing adventure.

Arturo is a great guide - knows his spots but also reads the area to move to the fish.

Arturo was great. He was patient in explaining all kinds of things and teaching us about casting, reeling, and filleting - if you want to learn some things, you can’t go wrong with Arturo!

The trip was great and Arturo did a great job getting us out on fish! Our trip was cut short due to a storm but that was out of our captains hands! Highly recommend Arturo's services! Can't wait to go back!

Great guide! We had a wonderful time, nearly limited out. Arturo moved us to a few different spots, ended up on the edge of a channel on a pretty hot spot. Caught a lot of near keepers and a few extra species as well. Great trip, a lot of fun and will definitely use Arturo again!

The Captain Experiences’ process was seamless and very easy to coordinate with.

Pick up was conveniently located at Jim’s Pier and Painted Marlin Restaurant on the Island.

Captain Arturo got all 4 people in our crew on some big redfish. My 6 year old son caught a big red and 9 catfish. A great experience for a first timer.

Definitely recommend.
