Joe worked diligently to make sure we had a great fishing experience. The fish were a little slow to bite, but Joe continually adjusted our position to find fish that would bite. This trip was a birthday surprise for my son turning seven. Joe was excellent with helping my son understand how to reel in the fish on his hook. My son caught three different species of fish, making him the one on our trip with the best variety of fish. He was very patient with my son when he got tired and a little whiny. We gave my son a break and then he took on a second round of fishing. Joe took everything in stride and facilitated us having a great fishing experience. I would recommend him to anyone, and will certainly use him again when I get to go fishing again.

Tough conditions with heat wind stained water but Captain Joe kept woking through it.  The first fish of the day was my 4 year old grandsons first fish ever, a keeper trout .  Can’t thank you enough for that one Joe.  After that we caught3 more keeper trout as well as a few small ones.  After the trout bite stopped we shifted gears to Reds.  Caught 2 keeper reds and several smaller ones before we called it a day.  Next time here to Port A I will plan my trip around when Lil Joe has an open date.  I have fished with several guides here in the coastal bend and none of them has worked as hard as Joe to put us on fish.  Thanks and see you next time around my friend

Full of knowledge and very considerate of his passengers On where to fish. The waves were a little big for my wifes liking so we stayed inshore where the bite hasn’t been as good as the bite around the jetties but Captain Joe new just where to go. We caught 4 trout before the bit dropped off so we moved and limited out in no time. Lots of laughs with Captain Joe and will definitely be using him in the future. Thanks Captain Joe for an awesome fishing trip. If your looking to go fishing around Port A look up Lil Joe’s guinde service. You will be glad you did.

Captain Joe was awesome!!! I went out with my son, son in law and my 6yr. Old grandson. Captain Joe was very attentive and patient with my grandson who had a million questions. We started out at an oil rig looking for trout. We caught a few but no keepers. We moved to another spot for trout but no luck. So we moved on to reds. Tried several different spots and a few bites and a few odd ball fish. Came away with one keeper. We had a great time. Captain Joe was very knowledgeable and patient. We can’t wait until next year to book with him again. Thanks Captain Joe

We had a great trip. The weather threw us a couple curve balls but Captain “Lil” Joe was absolutely great and knows his business. He made sure we had a good trip. He has a great personality and is just a good guy who knows how to make sure his customers get the trip they are expecting. Looking forward to the opportunity to fish with him again.
