We had a great time with Capt Chris! My son is going through some health struggles and Chris was very accommodating to make sure he had a good time. We went after what my kid wanted to catch, and Chris had him hooked up within 30 minutes of hitting the water lol. Also, awesome boat! Probably the nicest guide boat I have ever been on. If Chris told me he brought the boat straight from the showroom I would not have questioned him. We are going to return for duck hunting when it gets colder hopefully!
Had a great trip on a four star boat. Lol hope to have y’all again soon.
Chris met us early on Saturday morning. We all watched the sun come up. Beautiful day. The day started with a nice boat ride out to the stop. Catch a few fish but pushed on to several other places. Chris told me that after 10 am the fish come alive. He was right. In less than 30 minutes we caught another 10 Drum. Total catch by 10:30 am 12 Drum and 1 Red. That’s not counting the ones we had to through back. Thanks Chris for making my birthday the best ever. Highly recommend for a great time.
Thanks for the great trip, I look forward to having y’all again
Chris expertly put is in a position to limit out on Reds to include a 34 whopper and a few others that were tournament worthy fish! Could not have asked for a better day on the water; the rain before sunrise made no matter. Being back in the flats hitting the fish with the ducks flying over head made our trip with Captin Chris perfect. Can wait to do it again!
Thank you for the great review. I hope to have y’all again soon.
Had an amazing time. Chris with Coastal Guide Service put us on the fish. My son and I couldn’t reel them in fast enough. We didn’t expect much at all as the weather was less then ideal but Chris not only knew how to navigate around the conditions, he made it the best trip we have ever had. We didn’t just find our forever go to guide, we made a great friend. Chris isn’t only an extremely knowledgeable fisherman, he is an all around great guy who made us feel comfortable from the start.
Thank you for the great review and I hope to see you soon!!!
Wow, we had so much fun with Capt. Chris Pace of Coastal Guide Service yesterday. Our group of three caught lady fish, spotted trouts, cat fish, and a bunch of red and black drums. Chris knew his territory and we caught something at every spot he hit. Consider chartering the four hour evening trip starting at 3:30 pm (a huge plus if you don’t want to get up early to catch the morning fish run). We had a beautiful sunset that was the background of us constantly reeling in fish. We are relatively experienced anglers whom have taken many chartered fishing excursions in the past. This excursion is by far one of the best experience that we’ve ever had. Thank you Capt. Chris Pace for your patience and knowledge, and giving us a lifetime worth of wonderful memories. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND Coastal Guide Service. Five stars for sure. Cheers and good fishing! -Tony Senser, Art Zamorano, Al Federico, Oct. 26th, 2022.
WoW thank you for the kind words. I look forward to having you back. Great people, great time!!!

Your captain
My name is Chris Pace. My wife Jennifer and our four children moved to Rockport a year ago after spending summers here for the last 30 years. Living on the road as a welder in the oilfield for 15 years helped me make that decision. We sold our ranch in Tyler and traded spurs and saddles for boats and fishing poles. Now, as a real estate agent and guide, I look forward to sharing my knowledge of the area gained over all these years coming here. I enjoy people, teaching, and learning new things. Let's get hooked up and go fishing!
