My cousins and I spend a lot of time fishing… A little saltwater… but mostly Great Lakes.

The day before we were set to head out on our booking Captain Rey messaged me with bad news… His boat went down… After a couple texts back and forth he assured me we were still good to go… And we were!  We were a little early to the dock and they were in time. 

They greeted us, me and my cousins, early in the morning, with smiles and eagerness.  We’re not rookie fishermen buy any stretch of the imagination, but these men actually taught us a few things… I love it- we’re never told old to learn.

About an hour into the charter, i landed the biggest Red Drum ive ever seen- or caught.  A monster 38”er that weighed in at about 20 lbs…. What a battle!

They day after that was a little slow- but thats not the captains fault…

We’ve dealt with MANY boat Captains on charters… Some polite… some with sour attitudes.  Noth these 2 men!  upbeat and encouraging and absolutely polite and freindly.

We totally recommend!! 

Our family had an incredible fishing trip with Captain Ray! From start to finish, he made everything perfect, especially for our young boys new to fishing. His boat was clean and well-equipped, with gear just right for the kids. Captain Ray knows the local waters like the back of his hand, leading us to lively fishing spots where the catches never stopped.

He was fantastic with the kids, teaching them about fish and nature with patience and enthusiasm. It’s clear he loves his job, and that passion was infectious. My boys left with great fish stories and a newfound love for the outdoors.

Captain Ray’s hospitality was top-notch, with snacks, drinks, and plenty of entertainment. The highlight was encountering a lively school of fish—everyone was thrilled!

For a family-friendly fishing experience that’s both fun and educational, Captain Ray is unbeatable. His expertise, kindness, and passion make for an unforgettable adventure. We can’t wait for our next trip

Even though the fish weren’t exactly cooperating, we still had an amazing time on this charter thanks to the captain. He was truly awesome, knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly patient, especially with my 8-year-old son. He made sure my son felt included, explained everything in a way he could understand, and never rushed him. You can tell Rey genuinely loves what he does and cares about his guests having a great experience. This trip was such a positive memory for our family, and we would absolutely book again without hesitation.

We had the best time fishing with Captain Rey - he was incredible with my kids! He patiently taught them everything from baiting hooks to reeling in their first catches, and we ended up with a cooler full of fish. Hopping a few spots kept things exciting, every location delivered. His knowledge shone through every tip he gave. Highly recommend booking with him; pure family magic!

we had a slower day fishing but Ray is great captain/guide. worked hard to put us in a spot to catch fish. good gear and nice boat. Ill look him up next

we go out down here!
