Fishing with David was very enjoyable. He was a little frustrated saying the fishing was slow. I told him I was on the water with a wet hook and didn’t care about much besides that. We did catch a good mess of fish and David went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied. I would recommend David and his boat to anyone looking for a fun laid back relaxing fishing experience.

Had a great afternoon on the water with captain David.  I had 3 teens with me and he was patient and upbeat the whole afternoon.  He quickly cleaned our fish and even offered a recipe.  A great experience, highly recommend.

Had an awesome trip with Captain David! The trip was going to be all about my kids having a good time. Well they had a great time! He really connected with them and showed them few fishing tricks. We stayed busy reeling in fish thanks to Captain David. Before we reached the marina the kids were asking if we can do this again. Definitely will book again with him.

It was an unforgettable experience, I didn’t think It would be as exciting but it was more than I expected especially since the first fish I personally caught wasn’t a fish but a Shark! I had a great day with my sons and caught over a dozen fish not including the shark. Captain Dave made our first time fishing in the ocean a wonderful one and we can’t wait to go again.

Friends & family in town for Labor Day, booked a fishing trip with David Rappelet several weeks before, with no clue as to weather forecast. As luck would have it we showed up at Thompsons Fish Camp in Baytown in the pouring rain. By the time we shoved off it was dark stormy skies all around, but only drizzling. Our expectations were low, but spirits high, and knew all signs and conditions were against us. Turns out Captain David kept us dodging the rain and on the fish all day, I was totally amazed because there was no way, given these conditions we should have been getting strikes. Ended up with some nice Reds, Speckled Trout, Perch, and just missed a huge Black Drum. Thanks for everything Captain David, especially your patience and skill!
