Capt. Moe & 1st Mate Clevis
2 Hour Family Beginners Bay on March 10, 20262 adults2 children

What an amazing team! our Capt. & 1st Mate met us at the dock with smiles, professional appearance, excitement, and enthusiasm that was contagious with our 2 adult, and 2 grandchildren (8 & 7) fishing party that lasted through our entire 2hr fishing introduction charter. Within our very short time charter we caught 6 legal size Black Drum, 1 Sheep Head, a very large Blue Crab, 1 Toad Fish, and 2 small Sting Rays. Our Get Hooked crew were kept very busy keeping every pole on the boat baited and in the water the entire time we were on station and we moved around often. We were impressed, we all had a fantastic time, and were pleased with our catches of the day. We will be back!

Was great fun and a great experience.
4 Hour Inshore on April 14, 20264 adults

This was my first time fishing in the Gulf, and let me tell you, we were as excited as kids in a candy store—if the candy store was full of fish and the kids were slightly hungover. My buddy was on a mission: to catch a large red fish, because apparently, in Texas, known for them large reds . So, off we went, and the captain was like a fish whisperer. The first spot we hit, my buddy pulls up this enormous red fish. I swear, this thing was so big, I half-expected it to start asking for a beer and a seat next to me ! I mean, it was the kind of fish that would make a mermaid reconsider her life choices. We stayed on fish the entire trip, like we were on a reality show called "Survivor: Fish Edition." Every time we thought we were done, another fish would jump on our lines like they were auditioning for a role in "Finding Nemo 3: The Revenge of the Fish." It was a reel good time pun intended , and honestly, the only thing we didn’t catch was a break from all that fishy madness! The Captain and his helper were awesome guys jump on board you definitely have a good time.
