Weather didnt cooperate and we were on a limited time frame. Captain Patrick pivoted from the original plan and fished the bays. My son was thoroughly entertained and got over his fear of boats. Captain Patrick was awesome. I am already trying to find time to come back down and book another trip.

FISH ON! From start to finish!

Captain Patrick really outdid himself. He had a great personality that had everyone comfortable instantly. Very knowledgeable and situationally aware. As soon as we got to our fishing location we were hooked! Fish on with a king fish. We were slamming them on board. Until the Dolphins showed up. Captains experience quickly showed when we switched gears to catching bait fish in order to go for some shark. With the dolphins snatching those up also we set off to... More

We had an amazing time with Captain Patrick and White Lightning Sportfishing! Not only was he incredibly friendly, but his patience with our teenagers was next level. He knew exactly where to take us for the best fishing, and his passion for the sport was contagious — it truly inspired our kids. It’s clear Captain Patrick loves what he does, and that made the experience even more special. I’d recommend anyone looking for a fun, memorable day on the water to book with White Lightning... More

Came to Texas from Colorado wanted to experience ocean fishing. Booked trip with Captian Patrick. He not only taught us about fishing, but made a childhood dream of our daughters come true. We were able to catch, see, touch a shark, and release it back to ocean unharmed. We also caught various species of fish we were able to have cleaned and fillet to take back home with us. Overall the experience was better than we could have expected. We would recommend this trip and Captain Patrick to anyone... More

4 Hour Trip – Nearshore

Awesome first fishing trip for my kids!

My kids and I had an awesome trip with Captain Pat! He taught my kids how the boat worked, explained the safety rules (when safe to move about and when to sit,) he baited and took the fish off the hook, taught them how to cast and reel. They had a blast and my son has asked to go fishing again multiple times a day! The boat fit the 4 in our group comfortably with ample seating and lot of shade! Captain Pat altered the trip to fit the needs of our family! Can’t wait to fish with Captain Pat... More
