Member since August 2021 Port O'Connor, United States

Background: I grew up in a commercial fishing family, so it only makes sense for fishing to be my way of life. They say: Find something you love to do and never work a day in your life. That's where I'm at!!!
Techniques: Artificial lure fishing for Speckled Trout is my favorite, but love chasing Redfish too...

This Capt. John was very instructive, attentive & patient. He was not ridged. We ran a little late he accommodated us! Constantly looked out for our better interest Then explaining what & why he was or the fish were doing. We felt confident in his ability! And his boat…WOW!

Pick-up and drop off were effortless even in the face of a fishing tournament and numbers of boats. John provided all equipment and two effective forms of live bait. He moved us several times when fishing slowed down. He seemed very knowledgeable of the area. Everyone had a good time, and we caught enough keepers for lunch. Would definitely recommend!

Thanks for the great review. The fish were a little on the finicky side that day. I enjoyed your company. Capt. John
