About Your Trip

Extended Half Day Fishing-6 hours. Where we go on the water varies with what is biting and what time of year. Flexibility is key to my trips. In my 9 years full time guiding fishing and duck trips there are no set rules on spots or timing at each one so I figure out where to start even on the ride out depending on conditions. Relaxing fun and no pressure are my specialty so climb aboard and let’s get out there...I run fishing shallow bay bait trips in the boat or wade fishing. Also have requests for artificial only in boat or wading but wading is the best for that. Some trips we drift, some we anchor and it depends on the method the weather allows. Also guide coastal duck hunts..note the boat gets pretty crowded with 4 grown-ups so if you have 5 or 6 it will be tight-not all can fish at the same time however if the extras are kids it's easier to manage

My earliest memories involve Fishing and being Outdoors with my dad and my family. I remember being super excited for the weekends because my dad would love to take me fishing whether it was walking out on the Galveston jetties or later going in our Bay boat I was always excited to be even a little part of the planning, preparation and travel to the boat ramp. Of course there was always a gathering of the bait either by cast net or buying it from the ramp shop. We always felt like if we did not have live shrimp we would not catch anything which of course I found later not to be the case, but my parents instilled in me at a early age, the beauty of the outdoors-freedom of fishing on the Galveston bay. I carry that excitement and energy throughout my life. I remember the day I got my drivers license. I hooked up to the boat and took it to the boat ramp. Later I became a fishing guide and spent nine years even more intensely learning all about Bait fishing and management and what that meant to catch a fish-more accurately to put customers on fish day after day. The experience speaks for itself, but the energy and drive it takes to be a Fishing guide is all about helping others especially kids. I love the unbiased energy and excitement of children on the boat. I love how they’re excited about the live bair in the tank and asking me all kinds of questions that no one else may ask. I look forward to sharing time with you and your family on your fishing adventures.

How did you get started guiding?
I have always been a 'guide' taking clients fishing myself whether it was from the advertising specialties, CCA, DU, Banking, Insurance, Softball, you name it they came with me. I would write articles about fishing the Texas coast quite often as well. It was common to hear the comment 'why don't just become a fishing guide' which resonated with me until after a life change I decided it was time! 13 or so years later here I am guiding for a living and still writing articles found in CCA Currents, and some saltwater fishing magazines, but also still own a vacation rentals business with my wife and I'm a Realtor as well. Hustle is the name of the game. See you on the water.
What makes you different from other guides?
Personality and Experience both personally and from my business career(s).
