We had a slow day of fishing overall and only ended up with one keeper, but Wesley still made the trip enjoyable and worthwhile. We caught several fish throughout the day, just nothing that met the requirements. Wesley was very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to be around. He worked hard the entire time, trying different spots and strategies to get us on fish and never gave up. Even though the fishing was slow, his attitude and effort really stood out. We really appreciated his experience and would definitely fish with him again on another trip.
My three brothers and I went out on a 5 hour morning trip out of Port Aransas. The boat was good, equipment was good. Captain Wesley was great, constantly making sure we had hooks baited and lines in the water. Unfortunately we didnt catch a thing for the first four and a half hours. We moved around to different spots trying to find fish with no luck. Finally, at our last stop we started catching some smaller fish and Captain Wesley graciously let us stay out about a bit longer to keep catching them. The experience was great, I would definitely go out with Captain Wesley again. Hopefully the fish are biting next time!
We caught 5 keeper Redfish. Boat was smooth & fast. If, fish weren't biting - Capt. moved us to another location. Captain picked us up at Fisherman's Wharf in Port Aransas, so we didn't have to cross the ferry since, staying in Port A. I will contact Capt. Wesley Williams the next time we head to Port A for another great fishing trip.
While I could have spent all day on the water, 3 hours was the perfect amount of time for my wife that will go fishing just to humor me (and yes: she caught more than me). Captain Wesley made the best of that time. He took us straight to where the fish were and we managed to get several in the boat. Highlight of the trip was snagging a 32-inch red drum! If Captain Wesley is available for your time and date, look no further: book him now!
Had a great time, put my boys on fish. Explained everything to the boys about where and why we were fishing the ways we were. Gave us lots of tips, we caught a verity of fish and had a great time. We will book again in a few months on our next trip down!

Caught my first redfish when I was 3 in flower bluff under the JFK causeway and have been hooked on fishing since. I have fished all over the U.S. including Hawaii and a few other countries when I was with the military.
