About Your Trip

Excited to catch some fish in Corpus Christi? Captain Andrew is here to make it happen! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Andrew knows them forwards and back.

These waters are known for Red Snapper, King Mackerel, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, Great Barracuda, Spanish Mackerel, Scamp Grouper, Black Drum, Redfish, Amberjack, Blackfin Tuna, Sailfish, and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! You’ll target your catch by spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. And, you can’t go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Your excursion begins aboard a 25’ Sea Hunt center console with space for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

About Your Guide

Captain Andrew

Independent Guide 14 yrs of exp.

HELLO! My name is Captain Andrew. I have over a decade of experience taking guests on deep-sea fishing charters in the Gulf of Mexico. This section tells about my life and background so you can know a bit about your captain before the trip!

I first began to hone in my skills on the “party-boats” out of Port Aransas Texas. Over the years I have worked aboard every vessel from Fisherman’s Wharf, Dolphin Docks and Deep Sea Headquarters. I spent the longest time working under and learning everything from the legendary Captain Marvin Horner Jr. aboard The Kingfisher.

After years of dedication to consistent hard work while following my passion for fishing…an opportunity of a lifetime to take things to the next level came into my life. I starred in a new Discovery Channel reality TV show called Ice Cold Catch. (It’s on Discovery+, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Peacock, SlingTV, Fubo etc…) I found myself traveling to Iceland to work aboard the Valdimar, a battle-scarred, tested, and true long-line vessel.

The workload intensity matched the larger-than-life personalities of the hard-working captains and crew mates. I experienced the world’s most treacherous waters while fishing through Arctic cyclones off the west coast of Iceland. I also worked through storm season all around Iceland, the North Atlantic Ocean, Denmark Strait as well as north of the Arctic Circle towards Greenland. Although tough, it was an amazing experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

My dream was always to have my own fishing charter business. I want to share a bit of why I love fishing and being so close to nature with the rest of the world. Ocean conservation and responsible fishing are very important so that future generations of fishermen and fisherwomen can also enjoy the same beauty one day! Upon returning to the United States, I realized that the time is now to take a step further once more and that I’m ready to show everyone the Reel Deal about fishing!!!

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
