We had an amazing time on the water yesterday with Captain Arturo! I definitely recommend the full day trip because he keeps you on the fish, you wonโt want it to stop! He put us on tons of reds & trout, we even caught a few big bait fish. Bring a lot of water! He gives amazing advice about improving your fishing skills/technique, if you listen the fish will start jumping into the boat! Lastly his boat and equipment are absolutely top shelf, we had an amazing experience with him & he will be our new bay captain for the future. Fish tasted amazing!

We had a great day fishing with Arturo. He did whatever he had to do to make sure we had a good fishing experience. The only thing I would do differently is fish with fewer people on board. We had 6. We would certainly use Arturo again.
There were wind advisories the day we booked with Captain Arturo on July 14th which made the fishing tough.ย Captain Arturo worked extremely hard to put us some fish.ย I would book with him again on my next trip to South Padre Island.
Even though the bite wasnโt great, we did end up catching 3 keeper speckled trout that we kept. In general the fishing was slow, but not sure that was a reflection of the guide. There were fish jumping all around us, so he put us on fish, they just werenโt overly aggressive. The guide was a nice guy and fun to talk to about fishing and that made the trip a fun time. I would recommend booking a trip with Get โEmโ Hooked
Captain Arturo worked hard to get us on fish but unfortunately not much was caught, leading up to the trip he went out of his way to ask if we wanted to start the morning trolling for kings because of how calm it was. Not only that, my fiancรฉ is terribly allergic to shellfish. When I asked him about using a different kind of bait, he also had his boat completely detailed. He was super professional, but was still goofy enough to make everyone laugh and have fun the entire time! I 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a good time on the island.
