I normally do not write reviews but Capt. Smiley deserves to be reviewed. Capt. Smiley communicated with us prior to the trip, was on the water and ready to go before we arrived, and was funny, kind, and professional throughout our experience. His boat was immaculately clean, and everything was in great working order. He only uses live bait and has several rods and reels ready to go. He was familiar with the fish in season and took us to multiple locations where no other fishermen ventured in the search of the elusive redfish. He was relentless in his efforts to help me get my red! He literally went above and beyond to help me and I am grateful for the experience and his knowledge. I will only use Capt. Smiley for future trips, you will not regret his guide service. After our trip, he even cleaned and filleted our fish for us. See you soon Capt. Smiley!

Fishing for trout and redfish
What a great guy! He treated my grandson to some fun fishing for his 15 birthday. First boat trip for him and it couldn’t have been any more fun! We caught some keepers, but the little coves and bays he took us were gorgeous. Captain Will knows this area, and he knows how to fish. Boat was clean and well organized. He has his stuff together. He’s also really friendly and patient. I’m definitely coming back. Thanks, Captain Will, for making my grandson’s birthday special. He told us in the ride home that was one of the best birthdays ever!

Thanks guys had a great time with y’all!
I should know better than to charter in the middle of August in S. Texas, but it was my son’s birthday. That said, it was still a nice trip. Capt. Will’s boat was clean and in good shape. Will is a nice, pleasant captain who was patient with us tourists. We had plenty of bait and we covered a lot of geography in our fishing odyssey. The fishing was not great in productivity [nobody’s fault - weather] but we enjoyed our trip and I’ll call Will again when we return to Rockport in the future.
