This was one of our favorite fishing trip we have taken and Justin Albert was one of the main reasons. We wanted Big Redfish and my wife caught a 36" one and then for the rest of the trip, Justin tried many different areas to get one for myself and son. Justin took us all over the bay which is what you want in a guide. We did catch a variety of fish (flounder, sea trout, black drum, and reds). I would recommend Justin to anyone looking to have a great day on the waters. We look forward to next year to get back on the water.
Talk about a blast! We booked this trip extremely last minute and wasn’t expecting much. Justin is one of the most down to earth guys that is extremely nice and cool to hang out with! His boat is nice in a convenient. No one will try harder to put you on fish than Justin! I’ve been on a lot of guides, but justin is one of the most driven! He even turned the half day trip into about 8 hours. He’s not afraid to burn gas to get where he wants. If your wanting to have a blast and fish or learn about fishing. I highly recommend!!
What a wonderful day! We did a 5 hour trip with Justin and had a blast. He was very attentive to our multiple lines in the water, was very helpful with his instructions, and was easy to talk to too! I would high recommend a trip with him! It’s obvious he loves what he does and goes out of his way to make your trip better.
Thank you very much! Had a great time
Justine was awsome we knew fishing would be slow because of moon phase and water temperature But Justine stayed with it putting us on some fish we had a really good trip Justine was very easy to talk to and attentive to us we will book with him again.
