Captain Aaron and first mate Angel got us on fish immediately. They knew all the tips and tricks and made it a super fun experience. They were very kind and accommodating. They even had good recommendations on where to have our catch cooked at. We will definitely be seeing them when we come back!

Great day on the water with Captain Aaron.  Four of us on the trip, limited out on black drum, caught some spotted trout as well.   If I ever get back to South Padre, I will book him again for sure.
