Corey did an awesome job working with the kids. We had 3 first timers(7,9,11). My wife and I were extremely happy with how Corey worked with us on start time and location to work around weather conditions. We were able to get on fish the first stop. We will use Corey again.

Corey was great. My wife and I took a weekend trip down to Port Aransas for our anniversary and decided to book a half day fishing trip with him. He took us to several spots throughout the morning. While we ended up with four trout in the cooler, we were constantly catching fish….lots of smaller trout, a few oversized ones, and even a monster redfish. All in all, it was a really fun day on the water. Corey is personable, easygoing, and made the whole trip feel relaxed and low-stress. It was a great way to spend the morning and I’d definitely book with him again.

Good job Corey!
Corey was good at communicating via text leading up to the time we left. He did tell us the fishing was slow in the morning and left it up to us on if we wanted to go or not. Of course we DID! it was a nice day to be on the water. Corey put us on all the spots and we did catch but just not big enough to keep. Thanks...

My son and I had a great time fishing with Corey. He had great communication with us before the trip to make sure we were at the right place. He baited our hooks and took us out to some great spots. We both caught some great fish. After fishing, he cleaned, fileted and bagged our fish for us. It was the best day out on the water. We will only be calling Corey for any...

Corey was a great guy to fish with for the morning! He brought us to where the speckled trout were and we were able to catch our limit of keepers and with several too large/small ones having to be thrown back. My teen son loves to fish and Corey did not disappoint! Will definitely call him if we’re ever back in the area!

AMAZING!!! Our trip with COREY was exactly what we had hoped for. My husband and I took our 2 young boys fishing with Corey and he was so great with them. It was our fish time fishing salt water, and he made it a breeze. He was so good with the boys and was on top of everything the entire time. Not only did he bait their hooks, help them when reeling in and getting fish off the line, he taught them and encouraged them as well. He was so great!! Corey also had a great personality and my entire family felt like he was someone we’ve known forever. He was really an easy-going guy to be around. The weather wasn’t really in our favor, but Corey went above and beyond to make it happen for the boys. He also cleaned the fish, of course, and did it in good time. He was punctual and communicated very well :) Money well spent, and we will definitely be booking with Corey when we come back to the beach again. Great guy and great trip! :) He’s your man.

Captain Corey is truly top-notch! From the moment we stepped on the boat, he made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the day ahead. His knowledge of the water, weather, and fishing spots is outstanding — we were reeling in fish in no time. He provided great tips, top-quality gear, and a lot of laughs along the way. You can tell he’s passionate about what he does and really cares about making sure...

The three of us went fishing with Captain Corey on Friday 9/19/25. Captain Corey is the most conscientious captain we have ever fished/caught with. He provided his fishing knowledge and guidance without overbearance. His knowledge comes from a lifetime of boating and fishing/catching in Texas. He knew exactly where to go for catching and what to do when we got there. There was no shortage of good quality bait on board and no skimping when and where it was needed. We caught about ten Red fish and kept six with one needing a tag. Captain Corey provided us with much comfort on the boat and he was very anxious to help everyone who wanted it. We had a comfortable boat ride which included slowing down for the wake of other boats. We will definitely be asking for Captain Corey again , either in Port A and /or Galveston.
