Best Charter in Port Aransas!

12 Hour Trip Offshore5 adults2 children

I decided to take my twin boys (9 years old) on their first deep sea fishing trip. After looking at reviews, decided to pay a little extra for this charter and was very pleased with my choice! Captain Roger went above and beyond to make sure we had fun, he even let us fish a little later because we were catching so many. He knows all of the best spots! As soon as he told us to put the line in the water, we started catching. First he told us that we were going for shark, then asked if I was ready for a fight. Within 10 seconds of casting, I fought/landed a large blacktip for over an hour. Then we targeted baracuda. We caught 5 in less than an hour. We could have caught more, but decided to target a different species. We moved on to vermillion snapper and caught 36. It was a hot area, we could have landed more, but we watched sharks and dolphins attack them as we were reeling them in. We reeled as fast as we could, but the boys loved all of the action just under the boat. We had several other huge fish (with teeth) break our lines. I booked 3 back to back charters and this 12 hour trip will be the one we talk about forever. We will definitely be back soon. Thanks again Captain Roger!

    Amazing Birthday Trip!!!

    10 Hour Trip • 2 adults

    Captain Roger, his first mate, and Skipper made my 22nd birthday trip unforgettable! We headed out at 6:30 a.m., caught our own live bait, and immediately started hooking into top-tier fish. We limited out on red snapper, landed a Spanish mackerel, and best of all, caught a 53-pound amberjack on the very first day of its season! Captain Roger and his crew operate with absolute class, precision, and skill—plus plenty of good-natured jokes. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday trip or a better crew. Highly recommend!

    Great trip. These guys know what they're doing.

    10 Hour Trip • 6 adults

    Roger (with 2 R's), Glenn (with 2 N's) and Skipper, were great! We did a 10 hour. Landed some amazing snapper. They humored me to chase some barracuda, which we got on. Also we pulled in 1 spinner shark and pulled a 2nd to the boat that we let go. So, fishing was very good. Beyond fishing, I really appreciated the clean (a/c) cabin fiendly crew.

    Response from Captain

    Thanks for your kind words We absolutely enjoyed having y’all and hope to see you again sometime. It’s people like you that makes it all worthwhile.

    Awesome Trip

    8 Hour Trip – Offshore • 6 adults • 1 child

    Captain Rodger & Glenn of the Last Call was awesome on our trip with the Kids first fishing trip. By the end of the day it felt as if we was all Family. We did catch our limit of red snapper and also fought 4 sand sharks that all looked over 8 ft long. Captain Rodger and Glenn will be the Charter We look for when going to Port A,, (Last Call & Skipper)
