    Full day with Capt Rick

    Full Day Trip on July 2, 2022 • 4 adults

    Our morning started out slow, a few undersized reds. We worked several different spots but not much action. Captain Rick was kept us moving and he was constantly networking with other guides trying to get us on fish. We were getting down to our last hour when the call came in of fish being caught. He got us there and we drift fished until we all limited out on redfish!!! Captain Rick went above and beyond to ensure a fun, exciting and successful trip was had by all. We will be contacting him again for our next trip.

    Captain Julian was awesome! On an otherwise tough day to fish, Capt. Julian put us on fish the entire trip. First cast was a slot red and it only got better from there.

    All day trip with Captain Ricki

    Full Day Trip on March 9, 2022 • 2 adults

    It was a cold blustery day, and just as we started fishing for redfish we were caught in a hail storm. Ricky was aware enough of the weather and conditions to make a run for safe harbor. After a short break. Ricky saved the day by finding a spot where we limited out on sheepshead and caught some giant drum. Only hitch was we were unaware the he doesn't take credit card. So awkward moment to find an ATM.

    Trace was a wonderful guide with good knowledge and excellent people skills! We had lots of fun catching stingray, shark, whiting and a few other species! I would definitely recommend this to novice and experienced anglers!

Captain Ricki grew up with a fishing family who enjoyed sitting on the sidelines of the Jetty's and soaking some cut bait. At the age of 17, he purchased his first boat. The addiction really took off then. He has spent 38 years of his life fishing in Port O' Connor, Texas. Now, Captain Ricki continues this passion with his family, friends, and customers. Days Off Outfitters fishes POC year-round, and takes full advantage of the fabulous duck season POC has to offer.

    Would’ve given 5 stars for overall experience, but the weather was somewhat uncooperative. Captain Rick couldn’t control the weather, but he sure could control the fish! Beautiful reds and a drum. He made sure everyone in our party caught at least one fish. For each of us it was the biggest fish we ever caught. Thanks, Rick, for the best fishing experience we’ve ever had! (This is high praise coming from an old native POCer.)
