My son and I went for a three-hour expedition on Captain Tom's 38-ft catamaran and we loved it. A…read morecouple miles out we cut the motor and never needed it again until we docked. We had asked to learn as much about sailing as we could, so we got to work crewing the boat, hoisting sails, tying knots, manning the rudder, and learning what "lower the boom" means. Under supervision, my son and I sailed all the way back, keeping the sails trimmed and the heading aligned with our waypoints. Great fun. It was wonderful to be out in the quiet where the only sounds are the hull slicing through the waves and the sheets in the wind. Saw lots of dolphins, too. The Captain is a character, friendly as all get out, and happy to explain anything that you might be curious about. He's passionate about conservation and the environment, and he knows the history of boating and the bay. He may try talking you into getting a handsome sailor Polynesian tattoo, but but who knows - maybe you might want one.

I'm not sure where to begin. We had such a memorable time. I was hoping to see dolphins and roseate…read morespoonbills and I was not disappointed! Captain Thomas was delightful and did a great job making sure we saw plenty of wildlife. We cruised close to a rookery and a large flock of roseate spoonbills took flight. It was a truly awe inspiring sight. I've seen other reviews complaining about the boat but I didn't book this sailing trip to pussyfoot around in a yacht. We all got to help with boat a little bit and we got fantastic photos. It was a super fun and relaxing excursion.

This is a must for the kids!!! It was interactive, funny, and a beautiful cruise. Highly recommend!read more

No fish, hated to give us good bait like we were stupid! All over my wife and constantly& tell me how to fish all freaking day. Just a conceded,idiot that strokes his own meat like he the man all day!!! My boat the best!!"only one of its kind ",my talk show the best!!, I report all in the world of fishing!!, I run this bay!! Get out of my way !! What a terrible $400 shit show.. Trust me move on ! This guy out for himself and riding his poor wife's bank roll from the location shop she owns. Talked bad to the locals & fishing tournament groups who had the right just as we did to fish all day .. it just got old ! And I'm sure he will respond being the social but he is but I wish someone would of warned me.

Fishing with Captain Doug was an absolute joy and I can't wait for our next trip down to Port A…read more Let me start off by first saying I am afraid of the ocean. My imagination is a little too wild for the open sea and the thought of sharks and wild animals bigger than me freaks me out! When we first started going out on the water, I was nervous. Capt. Doug was awesome though, he gently broke us into deeper and choppier water making sure that both or legs and stomachs could handle the constant movements. It didn't take very long before my husband caught his first fish. Less than a minute actually! He dropped his line in the water, and BAAM!! There was a giant Redfish on the hook. Well after that, we were ready for more. Further and deeper we went until we ended up next to two large shrimping boats. That's when the fun really started. Kingfish, sharks, dolphin, sea turtles. It was like they were putting on a show. I have never had very good experiences at the beach, better yet on the water, but Capt. Doug really knew how to entertain and keep the energy up. I would recommended him to anyone, young or old, man or woman, experienced fishermen or newbies like myself. We had a blast.

We had the absolute best day renting the deck boat from Little Bay Marine! From the very first…read moremoment we met Donna and Ronnie, they felt like family we have known for years. They were so attentive to our two boys, and the boat is pristine and so much fun on the water. If you're wanting to fish, cruise, lounge or sight see - or better yet, all of the above, the deck boat is a great option, especially for families or for little ones who might be a little timid on a boat. It was my son's birthday, and when we returned with the boat, Donna was waiting and singing him happy birthday. They were also so genuinely kind and excited when my son told them about his 50 pound black drum catch on his last cast. He especially will remember our day on the water forever. Don't hesitate to rent here, you'll have the best time!

5 STARS! this place is absolutely fantastic. best priced way to enjoy the bay by far! Donna and…read moreRonnie are wonderful people. I will forever and always visit Little bay rentals every single time I come to Rockport! Thank y'all so much for such a wonderful time.

He has an amazing set-up that immediately told us he knew what he was doing. We had elements against us: full moon, hot and muggy day and competition with night wader fishermen. On top of that, we also had 4 rookies that included teenagers and a tween. Despite those odds, we all limited. We came home with 25 beautiful flounder. I only saw flounder after Eagle-eye Capt. Rick pointed them out to me. One of my flounder was a completely blind gigging experience; yet, I still got it! Capt. Rick is experienced, knowledgeable and infinitely patient. He is also extremely savvy on the water. He never lost site of the night fishermen who turned their lights off making them invisible and idiotic. I do not like to fish. At. All. However, I would go Flounder Gigging with Capt. Rick anytime. I can't recommend him enough!
