Long time Port A enthusiast and yearly guide booker. biggest problem I see with most guides is a lack of communication and boat rapport. Cpt Wesley excelled at communication with us, very responsive from initial contact on. Cpt Wesley’s boat rapport was excllent as well…I made the comment to him after his initial safety briefing that after 20+ trips he was the 1st to do that. Tuff day of fishing due to higher winds and full moon cycle but he kept us moving and we did catch fish. Highly recommend and we will book again.
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!
First stop, first cast had fish on (15in Red). Second cast another small red. Then 2 at once, one 24in Red and the other needed a Tag. Then the fish stoped and we moved trying to find them but no luck. Wes was great and we enjoyed talkimg and joaking around the rest of the time. Never a dull moment. We wil be back again. Still an excellent trip.
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.
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!

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.
