While we knew that this was a possibility, all past sailing charters we have used would have notified us the night prior that our trip was canceled. The terrible lack of notice left us scrambling to find alternatives of which there are numerous options. If you are looking for a cheaper guaranteed charter trip that won't cancel at the very last minute, then it might be worth exploring other options. We will not be back.

We limited on trout, caught some nice reds, and my eldest caught her first Texas slam when she finished up the trip with a flounder. We would definitely fish with him again. I'm pretty competent with a rod and once I know how we are fishing (live bait, popping, artificials, etc) I'm fine. He's patient and good with kids and folks that need more help too.

4th of July fishing!!! Capt. Bode took myself and my two…read moreyoung nephews for early morning fishing. Although the fishing was tough, it wasn't because of a lack of trying. We did land several large Trout. Just not our limit. With that said, Capt. Bode treated my nephews as if they were family. At the same time he's going to every sweet spot he knows to help us catch the trophy fish we all want. Maybe it was the several nights of a full moon, we just had a hard time finding the fish. I live and work in Dallas and I fished with several Port Isabel guides but none work as hard to guarantee that everyone has fun and great memories. If you a skilled fisherman or a firs ttimer I can't recommend a better guide.

My Dad and I went out with Captain Mike this past Thursday. The forecast was an ominous one…read moreheading into the morning, but Mike was ready when a window of opportunity opened for us to get out onto the water. We started by fishing for specked trout and were rewarded by staying persistent on a spot that Mike targeted as a "honey hole". Afterwards we worked our way up towards and area parallel to the Arroyo Colorado. Working our way through some vegetation-covered spits that had unseasonally hugh water around them, we were able to start casting for reds. Within about an hour we had three keepers. Next we headed towards Rattlesnake bay. Again due to the unusually high water (rest of the mainland was flooding with torrential rain) we were able to creep in on some sand covered bottoms. We hooked up on our last keeper red and then decided to call it a day. As it turned out we got to Jim's pier, had the fish cleaned and were on the road after parting ways with Mike but just in time before a heavy storm hit the island. Our timing and trip was perfect. Mike was patient, curteous, persitent, and a good teacher. Exactly what we needed after being away from bay fishing for so long and what's needed in a guide. Thanks again, Capt. Mike. Hopefully we go fishing or try hunting in the next few months or so.

Capt. Kevin delivered a great experience for us on my first day charter fishing trip in South Padre…read moreisland. He went above and beyond by not only being punctual in the morning, and relentlessly helpful throughout the day, but also giving us extra time since I had mentioned I really wanted to get onto some redfish. He wasn't the type of guide to watch the clock and bring it in on the dot, he wanted us to catch fish. when we went out there was a tournament happening so there were a lot of boats around. That wasn't an issue for him though as he knew exactly what he was doing and caught us fish around the tournament. Would absolutely recommend.

My son and I went out with Captain Kevin this past Wednesday. This was my sons first fishing trip,…read moreso he was really excited. Captain Kevin was exceptional at making our fishing trip a memorable one. We caught several fish, though not all were keepers. Captain Kevin was quick on the go to find different types of fish and if they weren't biting within a few minutes he knew where to go next to find them. My son and I also learned a lot from Captain Kevin since we are not familiar to saltwater fishing. Captain Kevin was very knowledgeable of the surrounding area telling us about the history of the bay. He also kept us out a little longer to try and catch some more keepers but to no avail. Regardless, we had the best time fishing in the bay that day and my son can't wait to go again. Definitely will recommend this charter to my friends.

CAPT Andrew reached out to us first and man am I glad he did! He was very clear on where to be and was flexible on our schedule and needs for the trip. We met up with him in the morning and took off out of the bay towards the jetties for some shore fishing and later bay fishing. As soon as we started to cast out we pulling up fish in no time at all. He put us right on the fish every time and was always aware of where to be. Best of all is he is a down to earth person and you really could get along with him and enjoy your fishing/boat experience. He was super family friendly and took great care of our boy who hasn't been fishing much. His boat was modern and comfortable for our party. His fishing gear/tackle was in excellent order and he always made sure we had the right tackle for the fish we were chasing. If you are down in the South Padre Island area and want to have a good fishing experience for a good price then you should book with CAPT Andrew. You won't regret it and your family will always remember the trip. Eric M. South Padre Island, TX 12 July, 2014

I don't post many reviews however I want to spare others from wasting a day off their vacation and…read morehard earned money on hiring this guide! This is a bit long, because there was so much disappointment in a half a day trip. I only get to take guided fishing trips once (maybe twice if I'm lucky) a year. Even though I'm not an superexperienced angler, it's one of my favorite things to do. This was the absolute worst guided fishing trip I've ever experienced! We took our two teenage boys celebrating graduation. Andrew was completely unprepared: -none of the lines were hooked up so we had to wait for his to hook up rigs when we were out in the gulf - he didn't bring any live bait, only "soft dead bait he had in his freezer for 3-4 months"; - he ran out of tackle 20 minutes into fishing (needed weights after 3 lines broke off had to leave that spot) ; - the only reason we ran out to the gulf was because he didn't bring ANY live bait with him; (when I asked him why he didn't bring live bait he said he only does that when he has little kids on the boat) - we ran out of cut bait within a short amount of time so he put soft artificial on our lines . I don't fish often enough to have experience with artificial bait. - 5 of us were all trying to cast off one side of a small boat; there were 5 of us because instead of helping any of us he was fishing!!! Literally we could not all cast at one time, so when he was fishing one of us were sitting out. - None of us caught a fish on artificial EXCEPT he caught 1 trout and he smirked and said "that's cause I'm a professional" !?! No lie!! - When he wasn't fishing he was doing work for his electronic business (emailing clients, buying and selling products). - When he was cleaning the two keepers that we caught, he dropped one of the filets in the water! When he took our money and listened to us tell him that we were so disappointed in our trip he never once apologized. Worst guide EVER! Save your time and money and most importantly hire another guide so that you make good memories!
