Brian Armentrout5.0VerifiedGreat Guide and Knowledge
Half Day Trip – Bay - 2:00 PM on June 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 childrenCaptain Ralph was amazing. I did a half day bay trip with my two young boys and Ralph was so patient and tried several holes. Caught flounder, trout, drum ans catfish. Had some up close interactions with sea turtles, dolphins and cabbage head jellyfish. Highly recommend Ralph and his crew.
Ian TateRepeat angler5.0Verifiedi’ll recommend this captain to anyone!
Half Day Trip – Bay on March 17, 2026 • 2 adultsCaptain Ralph was awesome. We only caught one fish, but it was a great keeper. Black drum put us on a lot of fish but a cold front and Easter winds will give even the best of fisherman in trouble. The weather was better. I know we would’ve caught more, wasn’t my first rodeo been fishing since I was a kid I can tell a good captain from a bad one. He worked hard and heart conditions.
Thomas Frazier5.0VerifiedPut us on some bigguns
Half Day Trip – Bay on November 1, 2025 • 4 adultsWe thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Captain Ralph. He was friendly, funny and accommodating. We were well informed on when and where to meet him. His equipment was well used but well taken care of. The boat was nice and got us out and back without issue. We strongly recommend this guide.

Had an awesome time fishing with the fellas! Captain did a great job putting us on the fish and making sure everyone had a great experience. We caught some good fish, enjoyed plenty of laughs, and had some great conversation along the way. Definitely a great trip, and I’d highly recommend booking

what a great group had a blast
We had an excellent trip with Mr Frazier. I was very impressed with the amount and quality of bait that he had and we never ran out of bait. If we didn’t get fish in one spot he would quickly take us to another one to help us limit out.
Captain Ralph was awesome. We only caught one fish, but it was a great keeper. Black drum put us on a lot of fish but a cold front and Easter winds will give even the best of fisherman in trouble.

Caught many fish, unfortunately most weren’t keepers. Capt. Ralph kept trying different spots in hopes of hitting some keepers. Beautiful boat and Ralph was a nice guy.
