Outstanding trip for all four of us! We caught plenty of fish—maybe not all keepers, but the action never stopped.

Captain Steve made our 5-hour fishing trip a total success! We reeled in plenty of fish and even had a close encounter with a beautiful Black Drum—though the big one got away, at least we had witnesses. Highly recommend booking a trip with him!

Capt. Hillary was fantastic! I brought my daughter, who doesn’t fish much, and he was patient, helpful, and made the experience enjoyable for her. I’ll definitely fish with him again.

Had an amazing time on the water today! The captain was friendly and did an excellent job planning the trip. We visited multiple fishing spots, chased a huge school of Red Drum, and even spotted dolphins. Everything ran smoothly and was a lot of fun. Highly recommend!

Trip - Half Day Afternoon Fishing Trip In South Padre Island - Redfish, Trout And More on August 10, 2025

We had an amazing trip! Captain Steven was amazing, very professional and personable. Boat and equipment were all clean and super nice. We cut our fishing portion of the trip short when we got our limit of trout so we didn't catch anything great big but when Steven heard it was my first time on the ocean he took us on an amazing tour of the water around South Padre. We are truly blessed. Most definitely recommend and will be booking with Steven again for our next trip!!

Trip - Half Day Morning Fishing Trip In South Padre Island - Redfish, Trout And More on May 9, 2025

I was looking for a last minute, spur-of-the moment fishing trip in South Padre Island. I've used other guides before but Captain Steve gets the gold medal. I saw that he was available, read a few reviews on him (thank you past clients, you were spot on), messaged him from the App, and he replied within a few minutes. Within 15 minutes we had the trip planned, paid for, and instructions ready on where to meet him the next morning. Like clockwork, Captain Steve was there at the boat launch, boat in the water, ready to go. From the beginning Steve was extremely informative and talkative about conditions, what to expect, and what we hoped to accomplish. Within 30 minutes we were out at his first spots drifting and fishing. Had some good trout with a few keepers and one larger 21" trout we couldn't keep. Moved spots and Captain Steve had us on some big Reds. Even pulled in a nice 28.5" Red, then a 26.5 Red, then a 21" Red. I know that doesn't happen all the time, but both of us were excited and had a great time. After we returned to the launch he even cleaned and filleted all the fish for me to take home. Fish Tacos for everyone! As a testament to Captain Steve's services, I have a luxury condo in SPI that I rent and I don't refer anyone to my clients unless I've tried and tested them first. Captain Steve has made it on my list as a highly recommended fishing guide to my clients. I will use him again in the near future. Thank You Captain Steve for a great morning fishing.

Captain Steve maintains his equipment to a level that exceeds expectations. His rods, reels, and boat showcase his dedication to his craft. While I consider my personal reels top-notch, the reels on his boat were exceptionally smooth—better than straight out of the box. When I inquired about this, he explained that he meticulously breaks down and cleans each reel after every trip. That's what I call a captain who goes above and beyond. Bravo!
