Capt. Chad runs trips out of Freeport, TX, aboard a 23' Shoalwater bay boat. These waters are known for Redfish, Sheepshead, and Flounder, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're sight casting or bottom fishing. With many years of tournament experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
