  • Captain Alan was a great guide for our fishing trip. We took my two grandsons ages 4 and 6 and they caught fish all morning long. Captain Alan put us on the fish and was very patient and helpful to everyone. I’d highly recommend him if you want an enjoyable morning of fishing in Galveston.

    Captain Allen was an absolute pleasure to do business with! Me and my twin boys when out for their bday present. The weather has not been great and he told me EXACTLY what to expect. He was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything very clearly to me and my boys. When it came to catching fish he knew exactly what and where it was gonna take place as well as being extremely patient with us as far as hitting our target with casting. The most professional and experienced angler I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting, do yourself a favor and book a trip with him!

    Captain Alan is the best!!! Always a good time whether the fish are cooperating or not. But he will hunt them down and get you on them. Most of all, you will always enjoy your time on the water with him. Great guide and pretty cool guy too.

    We had the best time fishing with Captain Alan today. We caught some whoppers and couldn’t be happier- red fish, drum, and trout galore. He put us on the fish and made sure to talk us through setting the hook and bringing them in. He was very patient with my 10 year old and made made sure we left happy. We have used his guide services several times and will continue to do so!
