What an amazing team! our Capt. & 1st Mate met us at the dock with smiles, professional appearance, excitement, and enthusiasm that was contagious with our 2 adult, and 2 grandchildren (8 & 7) fishing party that lasted through our entire 2hr fishing introduction charter. Within our very short time charter we caught 6 legal size Black Drum, 1 Sheep Head, a very large Blue Crab, 1 Toad Fish, and 2 small Sting Rays. Our Get Hooked crew were kept very busy keeping every pole on the boat baited... More

This was my first time fishing in the Gulf, and let me tell you, we were as excited as kids in a candy store—if the candy store was full of fish and the kids were slightly hungover. My buddy was on a mission: to catch a large red fish, because apparently, in Texas, known for them large reds . So, off we went, and the captain was like a fish whisperer. The first spot we hit, my buddy pulls up this enormous red fish. I swear, this thing was so big, I half-expected it to start asking for... More

While we didnt catch a lot of keepers, we caught enough to filet and take to the Huli Huli Hut where they prepared it for dinner. This was a fun relaxing way to introduce our son to fishing. he wants to do it again… that’s the best recommendation!

We had an awesome time on our fishing charter! Mo and Caleb were amazing — super fun, easygoing, and incredibly helpful the whole trip. They kept the energy up, made sure everyone was having a great time, and put us right on the fish. Thanks to them, we caught a ton and made some great memories. Highly recommend this charter if you’re looking for a fun and successful day on the water!
