Not so good.

Half Day Trip - Bay (PM)2 adults

Andrew is a nice fellow but, it was not a great trip. The boat in the picture is not the boat he has, one of the reasons I picked this charter over others WAS the boat in the ad. His boat is a lot smaller than the one pictured. Also, He said his anchor had broken a couple days earlier and he forgot to repair it? So we had no anchor to hold the boat in one spot, and there was a strong current and wind. We drifted fast. We did manage to tie to a marker post for a while and catch two small keeper redfish. I talked to a different charter captain the day before and saw a two person limit of big trout he was cleaning for his clients. His client said He and his wife limited in an hour and then started upsizing as they caught bigger ones. When I mentioned my upcoming trip to the captain with Andrew he rolled his eyes, and gave me his card.

Response from Captain

Sorry you feel the need to write a not so great review. We upgraded boats this year and I will not be taking down old photos including my old boat. If you look at my fishing booker page it list the size, make and model of my boat. Fishing is fishing one day can be great others not so much. We did very well for the weather and tide that day. We were one of very few boats out fishing in that weather. I will note we caught two snook this day as well which is a feat in itself for Texas waters. Photo included was two days before. Maybe next time you'll have better weather.

    Went shark fishing

    Inshore bay fishing • 2 adults

    So me and my wife went shark fishing, and he knew the best spots to catch bait fish, and put us on them and on some trout! We went in with the thought of not catching a single shark, but we caught 2 black tip sharks! We had amazing fun so we're ecstatic! This is the best birthday I had in a while definitely recommend!

    Great fishing time with Andy

    Half Day Trip – Bay (AM) • 3 adults • 2 children

    We had a great time fishing the bay with Andy.. It was at first experience on my grandsons at fishing in the bay Andy was fun and enjoyable, pointed out interesting facts about the area do you make a trip a lot of fun. The only thing that I could say that is not 100% positive if something every patient person would feel and understand it was just a chance the boys caught a lot of fish but they were not big enough to key and we were anticipating to feel our cooler when in reality we only got to bring home three but even at that it was a very enjoyable time and the boys ask if we could go back next year and use Andy again
