BiGGuns Guide Service invites to explore the waters of Bridge City, Beaumont, and Port Arthur, Texas. Pat Powell is a local professional with over four decades of outdoor experience. Join him for a fun day out and enjoy everything South East Teas has to offer.
Your guide Pat specializes in fly and topwater fishing in the shallow waters of Sabine Lake and Bayous. He caters to anglers of all skill levels and expertise. Each trip with Pat is very informative and educating. He will guide you through the basics before you make your first cast.
With BiGGuns Guide Service, the list of your potential catches will include Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Tripletail. You will mainly be fishing with artificial lures. If you are fishing with live bait, your guide will have it prepared for the trip. Live shrimps, however, can be purchased at additional $20.
All you have to do is book a trip and set your foot aboard a brand-new 22' Shoalwater flats boat. This spacious vessel comes powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine. It can take you and two fishing buddies to the hottest grounds quickly and safely. The boat is rigged with navigational and fish finding equipment, along with a wireless trolling motor, a live well loaded with bait to make your hooks irresistible, and an ice-box.
All trips come with quality rods and reels by Shimano and Lew's. As well as that, you will be provided with drinks, fish cleaning service, lures, and bait. Fishing licenses are not included in the price.
Pat can meet his clients in many places nearby. Please check it with him before the trip.

Tom MckissickRepeat angler5.0Verified”Better than I ever imagined”
Half-Day Trip on July 9, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childthis is my second time using FishingBooker. I have not been disappointed. Captain Pat was very friendly and knowledgeable. Our grandson caught at least six or seven redfish. Only ever fishing freshwater, he caught the biggest fish he ever has. We were so blessed to have such a wonderful experience. I recommend captain Pat to anyone. 
Karli Horne5.0VerifiedSo glad I booked.
Half-Day Trip on June 29, 2026 • 3 adultsSo worth the money. Captain Pat was wonderful: punctual, respectful, knowledgeable, and committed to making sure the trip is exactly what you want it to be. He will even fillet your fish for you. I’m looking forward to our next trip.
Michael Harlow5.0VerifiedCapt. Pat put us on the fish!
Half-Day Trip on January 11, 2026 • 2 adultsLet me start with: Pat knows what he is doing. His gear is top notch. He doesn’t promise you fish. On this day we went out in some fairly harsh conditions…yet he managed to put us on fish all day long. Communication was a breeze. Easy to get along with. Do yourself a favor and choose BigGuns and Capt. Pat for your next guided trip. You will not regret it.

Half-Day Trip on August 8, 2026 • 2 adultsCAPTAIN PAT!! You made this such a great experience! Everything was perfect and he is very knowledgeable about the fish in the area and fishing in general. Thank you for such a great trip!
Joshua DunnRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat Trip
Full Day Trip on June 27, 2026 • 3 adultsCaptain Pat was everything you would want for a chartered trip. Great experience and would highly recommend.
Frank Lynn5.0VerifiedAWESOME!
Half-Day Trip on December 19, 2025 • 3 adultsWonderful time. Caught several fish. Captain Pat was incredible! Will do it again.
Wesley Brown5.0VerifiedGreat day of fishing.
Half-Day Trip on July 20, 2024 • 3 adultsCaptian Powell kept us on fish for the whole trip, with live bait and artificial lures. He baited hooks and took care of the fish as we pulled them in. A lightning storm rolled in and he took us to safety and once it passed put us back on fish. Had a great trip and would tell anyone he helped make the day memorable.
Alvin Wooster5.0Verified6 hr trip with captain Pat
Half-Day Trip on June 13, 2022 • 3 adults • 1 childEverything was ready with full gear, equipped with bait, smiles, and Captain Pat even helped us carry our own stuff from the car to his boat. He was knowledgeable of all the areas and which fish to find out what location. Knew exactly which way to use bait based on the species of fish we were targeting. Even with horrible tide flow In The wind stacked against us, he still made sure we had a great and successful day of fishing. He doesn't just sell you a good time or some fish, he sells you memories that you're going to have forever. And there's not really a price tag that you can put on that.

Half-Day Trip on May 17, 2025 • 2 adultsPat put us on fish right away. He was knowledgeable about the lake, easy to talk to and his equipment was good.
Gary HigginsRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat fishing all day !
Half-Day Trip on August 20, 2024 • 2 adultsCaptain Pat had the knowledge and experience to get us on fish immediately and continue it through the rest of the day. A quick limit of trout and reds followed by many other species and over slot fish makes for a very fun day.
