CATCHING DINOSAURS Alligator Gar Trinity Riv. 

My son and I had the pleasure of fishing with Henry yesterday and it was an amazing trip. Caught big Alligator Gar all day using a variety of techniques. All gar released. Lost track of the number of fish we caught. I estimate it was at least 40 that were boated. Henry is super knowledgeable, easy to take instructions from, and is quick to help. I am going to fish with him again for sure.

This is some of the best fishing I have ever experienced. I was fortunate enough to book a 6 hour trip where my buddy and I caught 3 alligator gar all over 5 feet including a 7 footer roughly 160 lbs. The boat was comfortable, the guiding and knowledge was awesome, and the care for these dinosaurs was great too. It was an all-around great day and I appreciated the communication and flexibility to work around any issues that came up. I will, for sure, be back next time I make it to Texas.

Henry is a wealth of information. A natural resource himself who can talk as nauseam about one of the oldest, coolest, misunderstood species of fish on the planet while you catch them. Heroic guide!

This was on my bucket list of fishing trips. I live in the mountains in Colorado so no where near these amazing fish. So after doing my research I decided on catching dinosaurs. Not only does he get you into fish but also shared similar values that I do when it comes to conservation and treatment of fish! No such thing as a trash fish! Last minute he contacted me saying his boat was down and he had arranged his buddy Kyle to guide us. At first it had me worried as I did the research because I wanted the best. But it turns out his buddy Kyle was actually thefishwhisperer1 who I have consumed videos of on Instagram. He also holds the same values and definitely knows his stuff. He got my buddy and I into a lot of gators over 5ft and when I asked if we could target a long nose as well he got us to the spot and put on the right lure because I got one of those too. Which was awesome considering the last time I had an opportunity for a longnose I broke off haha. So weather you get to fish with Henry or Kyle just know you're gonna have a great trip! Highly recommended these guys

Capt Henry had some boat trouble but set us up with a great friend and experienced gar angler, Capt Kyle (The Fish Whisperer) and needless to say, I am sore today from all the fish we were tangling with. Unreal experience I highly recommend for everyone. Capt Henry made 100% sure we were taken care of and Capt Kyle went above and beyond to assure the same. This is a MUST do for every avid angler and even for people who just want to see dinosaurs in real life.

This full day trip with Henry Martin of Catching dinosaurs was an awesome trip, we caught over 30 alligator gar, with 4 of them being over the 6 foot, 100 lb mark. Henry uses methods of fishing that ensure safety for the fish, and also goes out of his way to explain any safety measures about his boat and the giant fish you will be catching. 10/10 great trip thanks Henry

My twin boys had so much fun catching alligator gar! Our guide, Kyle, was amazingly patient and made sure that we all caught these amazing fish! To catch something that is bigger than you is quite the experience. My boys competed the entire time! We will cherish this moment and will talk about the “one that got away” for years to come!

Took my son for his 13th birthday and Henry was phenomenal! This was our first time Gar fishing and he showed us exactly what was needed to catch one of these enormous fish. Great experience and will book again!

Henry is incredibly knowledgeable about the fish and prioritizes ethics and conservation while putting us on lots of huge alligator gar! We had an incredible time and would recommend this trip to anyone!!!

The trip was amazing . We caught lots of fish . The guide Henry was super passionate about gar . He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the fish. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to chase alligator gar .
