6 Hour–Peacock/Exotic Roundup (7AM)

Such a great guide!

VERIFIED

Great day out with Captain Ricky. The day was set up for my 14 year old son, and he had a great day. The two of them sounded like long time fishing buddies, and my son gained a ton of new knowledge. Captain Ricky was very experienced and prepared for our trip. He had us catching fish within the first 10 minutes of boarding his boat. His knowledge of the lake and canals was impressive and you could tell he was really devoted to providing us with a great experience . Thank you Captain, we’ll definitely see you next year.

We had a different guide who was supposed to take us this morning who canceled 1hr before we were supposed to go out. I reached out to Ricky explained everything and he got a babysitter and came as fast as he could. We missed the morning bite and threw artificial and still caught fish. He knows his waters and where the fish are. His boats great comfortably fished 3 adults. His rods and tackle are top notch, he was a great guy/captain, super fun to be with. 100% recommend him to anyone looking.

My wife and I went out with Captain Ricky this morning and had a Clown Knife in the boat within 10 minutes of arriving. Then he put us on the Peacocks and I literally lost count of the fish. I know we caught at least 25 Peacocks. We also caught: 2 Cichlad, 10 Largemouth, 2 Bluegill, 1 Catfish, and a Talapia. It was an insane morning. It obviously wasn’t luck either. Ricky would say “hey I want you to throw here” and like magic a fish would hit! Live bait, cold water, and conversation never ran out! I can’t recommend this trip enough!
