Fillabite Guide Service invites you to join up with Captain Randy Filla and get your hands on an authentic Texan fishing experience. Randy has more than three decades of experience fishing the local waters, and can be depended on to get the job done. Whatever your skill level, he’ll make sure you have a good time on the water and make your fish dreams a reality.

His boat is a 24’ Haynie bay boat that’s powered by a single 250 HP Mercury engine. This outboard powerhouse can have the boat cruising at a max speed of 50 knots, meaning you’ll be at the fishing grounds before you know it. When the time comes for sneaking up on unsuspecting fish, you’ll be using a wireless trolling motor so you don’t scare them away by accident.

The great thing about fishing in Texas is that there are always fish in the water, and you’ll know exactly what to expect. Whether you’re more interested in Bull Redfish, big Black Drum, or Speckled Trout, you’ll have plenty of time to go after all of them at your leisure.

Captain Randy will provide you with all the necessary rods, reels, and terminal tackle for a productive time on the water, and will clean your catch after the trip. All you need to take care of is to bring a valid saltwater fishing licence, as well as some drinks and snacks if you’re so inclined. With that, you’re ready to go on the water, and we hope to see you there soon!

Full-Day trip is between 6 to 7 hours long.

1/2 day 5 hour morning trip. on May 10, 2025

Randy is amazing. My brother and I planned a fishing trip with our 85 year old mom, and Randy was the perfect guide. Randy made our experience so special, and we all caught our limit of Redfish. Randy was knowledgeable and fun, and knows all the good places to catch big reds. Can’t wait to book with him again. Thank you, Randy!

Full Day Trip on April 26, 2025

Had such a great trip. Went with a couple buddy’s who have never caught a red before. It was Captain Filla’s mission to get them on some fish. And he did succeed. Everybody caught fish, including a nice 25 inch red. We already have plans to make this a yearly trip, and will use Captain Filla from here on out. Thank you sir!

Captain Randy was professional, knowledgeable and fun to be around. He worked hard to set the right expectations, and teach us the right methods to maximize our chances at catching Reds. We had a great time and he was always willing to help us during our trip. Would highly recommend booking your next trip with Captain Randy!

Half Day Trip (AM) on October 15, 2024

Was tough fishing but Randy moved us around to find the fish and have a good time. Caught our limit of Reds and even provided us with some home made dry sausage which was also great. Thanks for a great time will use again.
