Outstanding trip. Excellent equipment and knowledge of the area. We took the airboat and I loved it. Lots of guides out there popping up in the Rockport area....but you can't beat someone who has been at it for 30+ years.

We had a good day. We did not limit out, but at the dock seems that was the case all around. Ben put us on fish. Ben was friendly and happy to talk. Got into several nice conversations. Boat ran very well. There were no equipment issues. Would happily go with Ben again.

Fishing with Ben was amazing and just what we were looking for. My wife and I took my 83 year old father out for a morning and Ben had us catching fish as soon as the bait hit the water. We only kept what we were going to eat so we threw a lot back (not to mention the ones that we missed). For an enjoyable time catching fish I recommend going out with him...

Windy day, but Ben got us on the reds within 20 minutes of being in the boat and worked to keep the bite going for us right up until the end of our day!
Ben, thanks again for making our first trip fishing for reds a huge success and we’re already talking about planning our next trip!
