5-Star Review for Capt. Tim We had an outstanding day on the water with Capt. Tim celebrating my boys’ birthdays! My sons (17 and 12) and I had a blast from start to finish. Capt. Tim was knowledgeable, patient, and an absolute pro — he put us on fish all day long. We caught trout, bonnethead shark, beautiful reds (including a solid one my oldest reeled in), and black drum. The action was steady, the boat was comfortable, and Capt. Tim made sure everyone had a great time and learned a ton. He kept things fun, safe, and exciting the whole trip. This was the perfect family adventure — great memories made, fish in the cooler, and big smiles all around (especially at sunset on the ride back). Highly recommend booking with Capt. Tim if you want a memorable, productive trip on the Texas coast. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you, — Mike Hughes & family (Austin, TX)

We had Captain Tim as our fishing guide for my sons 14th Birthday and we had an absolute blast catching fish! He put us on the trout and we caught our limit in no time!!! He was very informative and answered all of our many questions we asked!!! We are already planning another trip to see him soon!!!
Nice meeting yall. Thank you!!
We had an absolutely amazing trip with Captain Tim Strakos from Reel Salty Charters in Port O’Connor! From start to finish, Captain Tim made the experience fun, professional, and memorable. We caught a variety of fish including Red Drum, Kingfish, and Sheepshead, and he knew all the right spots to put us on the action. Not only did we have a blast reeling in some great catches, but the entire day was filled with laughs, learning, and unforgettable memories on the water. Captain Tim’s knowledge of the area and dedication to making sure we had a great time really stood out. If you’re looking for a charter in Port O’Connor, look no further than Reel Salty Charters—you won’t be disappointed. We’ll definitely be booking again!
