Captain
Ruben Garcia

Member since July 2018 Port Isabel, United States
Background
Captain Ruben Garcia has been fishing since he was 5 years old and loves being on the water. He has been fishing for over of a quarter of a decade and comes from a family of fisherman. The captain is very familiar with the area surrounding Port Isabel around 60 miles. He's quite proud of his boat – it's one of the biggest bay fishing boats in the area. It has powerful engines so he can go to various places quicker and spend less time traveling to the location. All aboard!
Techniques
I fish using live bait and lures, while anchored or drifting. I like all styles of fishing and will use any style needed to catch fish on a particular day.
