Greatness in 30 minutes

8 Hour Trip – State Water4 adults

this was my family's first trip going off shore. once we got out to the fishing grounds we caught a Nice size barracuda, tuna, and two mahi-mahi in 30 minutes. but a marine alert came and we had to come back closer to shore ending our trip on the fishing grounds. It was a fast and furious 30 minutes. definitely want to do this again. the Captain and crew did a great job. but you don't control the weather.

Joshua Glad you enjoyed the trip. Was a bummer that the squall line forced us to leave the fish and head in towards shore. The gulf can turn into a very challanging situation very quickly. I always put everyones safety first. I hope you enjoy some delicious meals with the Tuna and Mahi. Look forward to seeing you out on the water in the future. Capt. Allen

    great day

    12 Hour Trip – Offshore • 5 adults

    had a great day- caught a variety of fish including mahi, barracuda, blackfin tuna, and bonita, and still had time to wrestle some monster sharks captain and crew knowledgeable , professional and personable would definetly book again

    Response from Captain

    Chris, it was a pleasure taking your group out on the Gulf. Was a good variety of species you caught. The big Bull shark is new record shark for the boat. I estimate it was 9 to 10 foot and 300 to 400 Lbs. Was cool that each of the 3 boys were able to catch a shark. The first was a spinner shark, 2nd was a Sandbar, 3rd was a Bull. Hope to see you again. Capt. Allen

    Big Al Offshore Fishing Experience

    8 Hour Trip – State Water • 2 adults

    The offshore fishing trip with Big Al (Captain Allen) and his First Mate (Camden) was excellent. He took me and my son Carson on his relatively big boat (forgot the exact size) and we went about 55 miles offshore from Corpus Christi. We were able to catch a King Fish, a Mahi, a Red Snapper, and an Atlantic Sharp Nose Shark. On the way back to shore, a storm occurred and the two-foot waves became seven-foot waves. The boat bounced around and the water splashed us. It reminded me of the Intro to Gilligan's Island:). The Captain and his First Mate steered the boat safely to shore. Not only are they great at handling the boat and fishing, but they are friendly, very helpful, and great conversationists. We not only came away with a number of great fish, but left with great memories. Thank you Captain Allen and Camden! I definitely would recommend this fishing charter!
