Great fishing charter experience!

4-timers bukt/molo fisketur5 voksne

Captain John was a great fishing guide. We had a blast even though the fish weren't very active. We ended up with keepers Sheep's head, black drum, and two black tip sharks. When we were catching our bait fish (for shark fishing later), we had to be quick otherwise the dolphins would steal our fish. That was a fun little challenge in itself. lol. This was our first time on a fishing charter and Captain John with Big Tex Fishing Charters did a great job of giving us pointers and showing my kids techniques on reeling in the larger fish.

    Great experience!

    4-timers bukt/molo fisketur5 voksne

    Went out with Captain John on Sept 2, 2026. Start of the trip was rough. 30 mph winds, started fishing the south jetty and the storm brought in too much seaweed. He decided we needed to get out of the seaweed and started to move to another spot and just got rougher. Mother nature. Lol. Heavy rain. Enough to ask us if we wanted to quit for the day, but we persevered. Good thing we did. Fished in the harbor and probably caught around a total of 100 fish. Including a 38-39 inch bull red. Lost 2 good red drums. (Not his fault. It happens) 5 of us. Not one minute went by that at least one of us wasn't pulling in a fish. Great conversation too! Thanks again John! Definitely recommend!

    More food than we could eat!

    6-timers bukt/molo fisketur2 voksne

    Went out with Captain John and had an absolute ball! What a day to remember! Within the first 10 minutes, we were catching fish as fast as we could pull them in. Talk about a feeding frenzy! Our biggest challenge was reeling them in fast enough before the dolphins decided they wanted our catch for dinner! 😂🐬🎣 We caught all sorts of fish**, spadefish, ladyfish, sand trout, speckled trout, blacktip shark, bonnethead shark, croaker, catfish, stingray, pinfish, and black drum.** It seemed like we never knew what was going to be on the end of the line next! Captain John was fantastic. He was great to converse with, kept things fun, and there was no sailor language, just pure fun, lots of laughs, and some great memories. To top it all off, Captain John hooked us up with a local restaurant that cooked our fresh catch four different ways: cornmeal fried, blackened, beer battered, and grilled. Let’s just say we definitely didn’t go home hungry! Thanks, Captain John, for an incredible day on the water. We’ll definitely be back! 🎣🐬🦈 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Family Fishing Trip – Great for All Ages

    6-timers bukt/molo fisketur5 voksne1 barn

    We had an outstanding fishing trip! Our entire family had a great time, especially my two grandsons, who were smiling from start to finish. Everyone on the boat caught fish, which made the experience exciting for all of us. The highlight of the day was when one of my sons-in-law landed two huge bull reds (38” & 36”) — something we’ll be talking about for years! Captain John worked hard to keep us on the fish, was patient with my grandsons, and made sure everyone had a memorable experience. If you’re looking for a fun family fishing trip where everyone has a chance to catch fish, I highly recommend Captain John Mark. We can’t wait to come back!

    First timers.

    4-timers bukt/molo fisketur - 11:30 AM2 voksne

    We went out in the afternoon on the 4th of July with Captain John. We started out by some rocks. We got a few nibbles, caught a black drum and a stingray. Then Captain John asked if we wanted some action. He mislead us. He should have asked if we wanted some, back breaking, arm straining, heart racing, lung bursting excitement! times 7 - in one hour. Captain took us out, slowed down, tossed out a line and within minutes had a black tip shark hooked. While I was fighting that shark another line started singing. I passed that one to my husband and I took the next. We both hauled in a 4 foot black tip each. What a fight! We kept pulling them in, catch and release, until our arms gave out. We asked him to take us back to the slow spot for our last bit of time. We had such a great day. The water was calm, the weather was mild and there was a pleasant breeze. Which was great since it was our first time on a boat. He was very professional and super helpful. Did I say he was patient. Yes, very patient.

    Reel Experience 10/10

    4-timers bukt/molo fisketur - 11:30 AM2 voksne

    Im not great with words but i can say 10/10!! My husband and I had a great experience with Captain John-Mark!! He is a truly an exceptional angler and host!! From the vessel, his personality, and knowledge, all were exceptional!! We loved every minute and are planning our next trip for next month!! He showed patience for us and never missed a chance to teach us. We both are astonished at his knowledge. He knew what was on our line before the catch was even seen. He also never rushed anything which we enjoyed. He was also respectful of the catch!! My husband caught a 50lb drum, not a keeper, and the fight took alot out of the fish but Captain took time to help the drum live!! I could keep going about our great experience! Dont let the photo of 3 fish put you off, fish were caught and great times were had!!We are definitely booking again!!
