What an incredible experience! We had so much fun on our guided trout fishing trip that we immediately booked a second trip for the very next day.

The fishing was absolutely phenomenal—we caught our limit of trout in just two hours! After that, we switched gears and went after redfish. I hooked into one that gave me the fight of my life and made for an unforgettable memory. As if that wasn’t exciting enough, I also caught a stingray, which was such a unique and awesome experience.

Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great time from start to finish. Whether you’re an experienced angler or just looking for a fun day on the water, I highly recommend booking a trip. We can’t wait to come back!

My wife and I went on a bay fishing charter from South Padre Island, and it was honestly a bucket-list experience for me. We had an awesome time, even though we were both new to this type of fishing.

We originally scheduled a 5-hour charter, but we were enjoying it so much that we decided to extend it for 2 more hours. That pretty much says everything about how good the experience was.

Captain Marc and his wife Brandy were great from start to finish. Captain Marc was an excellent teacher, very knowledgeable, and a great communicator. He ran a safe, professional operation and was constantly working to put us in the best position to catch fish.

We ended up catching our limit in sea trout, a 29” red drum that my wife caught after an epic fight, a few whiting, and even one catfish that we released.

To top it off, Captain Marc recommended a local restaurant on SPI that would cook our catch, and that turned out amazing as well.

Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a fun, well-run fishing charter in South Padre Island.

What a great experience. Capt. Marc was responsive and quick to commmnicate from the get-go. His years of experience really showed when everything that he said would happen, happened. “Might be slow at this time, will pick up around this time, fish will run this way, youll yet hits once they run this way” and like clock-work, it happened.

We were a family of 4 with a bonus kid and this trip was perfect. We even had a non-fisherman, and she still had a good time when given a bonus pop-tart and saw some fun marine life!

Even for skilled fisherman, Capt Marc gave some great tips and tricks for catching specific species like trout and redfish.

I cant recommend Fish in the Box with Capt. Marc enough. Our memories are made and bellies are full.

I’ve been on a lot of fishing charters across the country over the years, and after recently retiring from the military, I finally have more time to chase fish instead of deadlines. I can honestly say this trip with Capt. Marc ranks in my top two fishing charters anywhere in the U.S.

The trout apparently never got the memo that they were supposed to stay hidden, because we caught a bunch of them. The redfish, on the other hand, must have had a staff meeting and collectively decided to take the day off. We searched, we strategized, we negotiated, and the reds still weren’t interested in participating.

What really made the trip stand out was Capt. Marc. He was professional, knowledgeable, and knew exactly where to put us on fish. Just as important, he was great company. Some guides can either fish or talk, Capt. Marc can do both. The conversation was easy, the atmosphere was relaxed, and there was never a dull moment.

Fishing is fishing (you can’t make fish bite) but you can control preparation, effort, and customer experience. Capt. Marc nailed all three. If you’re looking for a captain who works hard, knows the water, and makes the trip enjoyable whether the fish cooperate or not, this is the charter to book.

We’ll just assume the redfish heard I was retired and decided they didn’t want to become my first post-retirement accomplishment.

Highly recommended. I’ll definitely be back to settle the score with those reds.

Captain Marc had great communication prior to going out on the water.  He talked about how it was tough right now getting good quality live bait right now but he would do his best to put us on the fish. 
It was a tough day on the water fishing but captain Marc did put us on some good quality fish even though the conditions weren’t the best.  We moved around the water to many different spots. Being a fisherman all my life that what fishing is all about.  Some days are better than others. 
The boat was awesome, big and safe and clean. Captain Marc and his wife did a great job!  Thank you again.  I will be booking again very soon.
