100+ reviews
Capt. Hector has been fishing the Laguna Madre bay system since he was 8 years old, but decided to start fishing professionally full time in 2010. He always wanted to be a science teacher or a coach. Fishing mixes his love of biology with helping people achieve their potential. He loves nature and making his passion his career was the best decision he's made. The best thing about being a captain is the memories and smiles he creates for customers, together with a beautiful experience they will not forget. You'll come on a fishing trip with Capt. Hector as a customer, but you'll be back fishing with him again as a friend and part of the family!

    Thanks Cap’n!

    Bay Fishing • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Hector delivered an outstanding experience from start to finish. He clearly knows thee bay inside and out—he put us on fish quickly, and everyone in our group caught something. His command of the boat and the lines was impressive; everything ran smoothly and professionally the entire trip. The boat itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Most importantly, my kids had an absolute blast and felt included the whole time. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable captain who knows where to find the fish and makes it a great day for the whole family, Captain Hector is the real deal.

    Bay Fishing • 2 adults • 1 child

    My son and I had an incredible time on our trip! From the moment we got on the boat, Capt Hector made us feel welcome and made sure we had a great experience. He was knowledgeable, patient, and worked hard to keep us on the fish all day. My son had an absolute blast.If you’re looking for a captain who is friendly, professional, and truly cares about his customers having a great time, I highly recommend booking a trip with him.

    Capt. Hector Made Our First Bay Fishing Trip Memorable

    Bay Fishing • 2 adults

    Capt. Hector gave my cousin and me an unforgettable experience on the bay. It was our first time bay fishing, and even though we didn’t land the exact fish we were hoping for (the saltwater catfish were definitely a nuisance), Capt. Hector made the trip incredibly enjoyable and educational. He took the time to explain how weather, water temperature, and the time of day all affect fishing and what it takes to hook the right fish. His knowledge and patience really stood out and made the trip worthwhile. More importantly, we had a great time, learned a lot, and made some great memories out on the water. I highly recommend Capt. Hector to anyone looking for a great bay fishing experience.
