    Great time catching fish!

    Snapper Trip on July 8, 2025 • 4 adults

    Four person charter out of Port Mansfield. The captain put us on the specs and we limited out quickly. Spent the rest of the trip targeting redfish and pulled four good reds on the boat. Captain was knowledgable, funny and we had a great time. Recommend highly!

    What a great time my wife, daughter, and myself just experience out with Captain Augustine. We were lucky enough to be the first in his spectacular new boat, and we had a great time catching our limit. I will definitely be calling Captain Augustine again.

    Two days with Capt. Augustine

    Full Day Trip on March 17, 2022 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Best charter ever! Not only was all the normal stuff good (on time, nice boat, all the required gear, etc.) but Augustine was awesome with my 9 year old son. Best of all, we found the fish including a full limit of reds on the first day, and almost a full limit the second day including two tagged bulls.

    Fishing with Augustin

    Half Day Trip on August 27, 2020 • 2 adults • 1 child

    I fish a lot back home in Minnesota and know there are slow days on the water and we found ourselves out on the Laguna Madre on a slow day. Luckily we were with Augustin and he refused to give up. He talked us through each approach we tried, what was unique about each spot we visited, and exactly what the fish were looking for. He kept us moving and pushed hard to get us on fish and we had an amazing time!!! We are looking forward to coming back and trying again someday! Tight lines!!!

    Half Day Trip With Reel Action Charter Service

    Evening Trip on July 24, 2020 • 2 adults

    What a great trip! We had limits of trout in two hours! Captain Augustin was friendly, courteous, informative and (most importantly) knew where to find the fish. We got the full trip in before Hurricane Hanna arrived. Captain Perez cleaned and bagged our catch and recommended a local restaurant where they cooked some of our fish and we discussed our next trip.
