    Captain Steve is the best. Knows so much about fishing in general and the area in specific. We didn’t catch many today but we had an excellent experience anyway. Can’t wait to head out with him again.

    Darrell was friendly, patient and knowledgeable regarding the Galveston waters. This was the first saltwater fishing experience for my 11-year-old son. Darrell was great working with him and made both of us feel welcomed and comfortable.

    Captain Jetty Jesus Jon was great, taught my son and his friends the importance of patience and in return we got blessed with HUGE fish and great stories to go with the filets!! Thank you so much….

    Great time for the family. Capt Derek put us on fish early and we caught fish the entire time. Thanks for making our vacation better.

    Rob H. with Meghan B. of Galveston, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Sometimes the fish you are hoping for aren't the ones biting. That is why it is called fishing and not catching. When that is the case your guides can turn what could be a "bummer" trip into a fantastic day. Captain Johnathan and Deck hand Mike did that for our crew. We did catch fish and took home a beautiful Bull Red will feed all 8 of us. More importantly, we had a fantastic day on the water, great conversation with new friends, and learned a bit about Galveston Bay also.

    James E. with Meghan B. of Galveston, Texas

    Captain John was awesome and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    Brant is an amazing guide. He genuinely cares about you having a safe and memorable trip. It was a bit warm and crowded but we did catch a lot of fish many small trouts a couple of black drum and ultimately ended with 5 trouts that were legal a one black drum. We caught more cats than we could count but quickly threw those back. Brant enjoys fishing and will spend as much time as you want teaching you all he knows about fishing and the area. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a great trip Brant.

    Kimchu P. with Brantley W. of San Leon, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Trip was good. Timely departure, waters were nice. Unable to catch much fish that day, but fish were there just not biting. Overall experience was good. I liked Captain Shawn and will do future bookings.

    Roy M. with Shawn W. of Galveston, Texas

    Awesome trip! Captain and deck hand very courteous provided all the support we needed. Caught fish. Thanks again.

    Alonzo H. with Meghan B. of Galveston, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    My son and I wanted to go fishing over spring break. He had his heart set on going deep sea fishing. Unfortunately, the weather had other plans. However, after speaking to Brandon we identified the best day possible to fish the bay. Captain Steve and first mate Jimmy took us out and made sure we had an outstanding time. While the boats around us were struggling to catch anything, my son was busy all morning catching fish. The weather window was perfect and we had a great time. These guys are great!!! We will definitely be back. Thanks again to Brandon, Steve and Jimmy.

    Michael C. with Brandon M. of Galveston, Texas

  • ★★★★★

    Jonathan and Cody were great today on our fishing guide. We got out there, set lines and got acquainted then it was on. Everyone got to reel some in. Having patience is key!! Everytime we stopped to chat it like we had another line hit. I was very nervous as this was our fist ever fishing guide and salt water fishing. But Jonathan answered all our questions and helped us with everything. My family had a blast! We highly recommend and will definitely be back!!

    Danyelle J. with Meghan B. of Galveston, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    My son had a wonderful time he just wish they would have went out more that a mile. They were cut short . Not worth what I paid this time. Hopefully when we did it again it will be better . But they had fun

    Meghan made getting ready for this trip so easy. She provided all the information we needed and was available to answer all of our last minute questions. Captain Bryan was fantastic! He was very laid back, knowledgeable, knew the area well and took us straight to the fish. We had such an awesome experience! We caught a couple sharks, a big red fish, some cool catfish, trout and even a sting ray. We really had a great time and will be back! Thank you so much!!
