Captain
Ricki Oliver

Member since December 2020 Port O'Connor, United States
Background
Captain Ricki grew up with a fishing family who enjoyed sitting on the sidelines of the Jetty’s and soaking some cut bait. At the age of 17, he purchased his first boat. The addiction really took off then. He has spent 38 years of his life fishing in Port O' Connor, Texas. Now, Captain Ricki continues this passion with his family, friends, and customers. Days Off Outfitters fishes POC year-round, and takes full advantage of the fabulous duck season POC has to offer.
Techniques
Captain Ricki enjoys all fishing types and methods. From wading and soaking croaker, tossing a cork and live shrimp, to throwing plastics or sitting in the boat soaking cut bait and enjoying some good conversations. He enjoys those late night runs to his favorite floundering holes and that early morning coffee heading out to see the sunset over the flat seas, seeking Snapper.
