I'm a U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain who’s spent a lifetime fishing the waters of the Texas Gulf Coast. From a young age, I was taught the ins and outs of fishing by my father, whose favorite saying was, "Let’s get this ole Seahorse moving." That phrase stuck with me and became the inspiration for my charter company—Seahorse Charters—a tribute to my dad and everything he passed down to me since I first held a fishing rod at the age of five.

Today, I specialize in laid-back, fun-filled bay fishing trips targeting Speckled Trout and Redfish, two of our most iconic coastal species. There’s nothing I enjoy more than watching folks light up when they hook into a solid fish—whether it's their first catch or their fiftieth. It’s about more than fishing; it’s about making memories that you’ll carry long after the last cast.

Come fish with me and experience the kind of day on the water you’ll want to tell stories about. I also offer special 3-hour trips for two on South Padre Island for just $350—perfect for fitting in some action before lunch. Looking forward to seeing you on the water!
