We had an amazing time with Captain Patrick and White Lightning Sportfishing! Not only was he incredibly friendly, but his patience with our teenagers was next level. He knew exactly where to take us for the best fishing, and his passion for the sport was contagious — it truly inspired our kids. It’s clear Captain Patrick loves what he does, and that made the experience even more special. I’d recommend anyone looking for a fun, memorable day on the water to book with White Lightning... More

Came to Texas from Colorado wanted to experience ocean fishing. Booked trip with Captian Patrick. He not only taught us about fishing, but made a childhood dream of our daughters come true. We were able to catch, see, touch a shark, and release it back to ocean unharmed. We also caught various species of fish we were able to have cleaned and fillet to take back home with us. Overall the experience was better than we could have expected. We would recommend this trip and Captain Patrick to anyone... More

My kids and I had an awesome trip with Captain Pat! He taught my kids how the boat worked, explained the safety rules (when safe to move about and when to sit,) he baited and took the fish off the hook, taught them how to cast and reel.  They had a blast and my son has asked to go fishing again multiple times a day! The boat fit the 4 in our group comfortably with ample seating and lot of shade! Captain Pat altered the trip to fit the needs of our family! Can’t wait to fish with Captain Pat... More

This was our first private fishing trip.. I wanted it to be extra special as it was my son’s 13th birthday.. we all had a blast and caught more than 25 fish.. Patrick is very knowledgeable and was helpful. I definitely recommend… we will be booking future trips with him again.
