My son (Moose) and I had the pleasure of spending a 5-hour trip on the water with Jared Huffman—better known around Port Aransas as Hookin’ Huffman—and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. While the fish weren’t exactly cooperating that day, it didn’t matter. Jared’s professionalism, energy, and deep knowledge of the waters made the experience unforgettable.

He had us laughing, learning, and completely engaged the entire time. The boat was spotless, the gear was top-notch, and Jared worked non-stop to put us on fish. It’s clear he takes pride in what he does, and even more clear that he truly cares about his clients having a great time—fish or no fish.

If you’re looking for a guide who knows his stuff, treats you like family, and makes the most out of every minute on the water, Hookin’ Huffman is your guy. Moose and I will absolutely be booking with Jared again—next time we’ll bring the fish with us!

Excellent guide service, Captain Jared made my experience an unforgettable one. He provides everything you need to have an excellent time out on the water, whether it be saltwater bay fishing or freshwater fishing on Lake Whitney. His services also provided us with bait,  tackle to lines, lures rods and reels, even cleaning our catch after a long day. He’s a family man so his patience with my kids and our inexperience was a plus, you can truly see his passion for what he does and for the people that book a trip with him. Can’t wait to book another trip with him for some dolphin watching and Fall duck hunting. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks Capitan Jared.

Captain Jared was a great guide.  We caught a black drum, red drum and trout to take home. Got a stingray and lots of catfish to throw back.  The boat was just the right size for the four of us. Jared took us past the jetty, to the flats and over a wreck to find the best spot to catch all the fish.  He is very knowledgeable and an excellent guide.  We are already talking about another trip with him this winter.

We had a Great time Fishing with Captain Jared, he was cool and made us feel welcomed.
Took us to a few spots.  We did catch fish and my son caught a stingray! But only one keeper.  We still had a Great time and will be requesting him again.
We caught reds, speckled trout,  catfish, a Big perch,  toad fish and a stingray.
He made sure to keep me informed on the weather bc it was raining and what time we would link up to fish. 
Also offered some spots if we needed tackle stuff and bait. He is very knowledgeable.

Thanks for a Great time Captain Jared

If I could give more stars I would. We had an Awesome time with Captain Jared Huffman. He took us to all the hot spots. His boat was very clean, had plenty of space and was well stocked with bait. He kept our lines baited at all times and had our fish cleaned in no time at all. My son and his friends had a blast on the trip and we all caught plenty of fish, which we later had for dinner. I highly recommend Hookin Huffman for your next fishing trip. Thanks again for a great time Jared! We’ll see you next trip!
