very successful fishing day.

 Our catch. We cought both Specled Trout and Redfish.

Dale, Dwight and I with our catch.

We had enough fish to share feed 30 people from

THE HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS where we stay. The fish

are being prepared by Pier 19 as they do an excellent

job of cooking fish.

The day was overcast and low wind and mostly cloudy

all day. We fished in 1 1/2 to 3 feet of water with

artificial bait. Capt. Doug was fantastic and has much

experience fishing the LaGuna Madre Bay.

Rods, Reels, Bait and Tackle provided.

He Guarantees you will catch fish or you fish free!!  

I highly recommend Capt. Doug Dunkin and will definifely

fish with him again. He knows the Bay and the best fishing

spots like the back of his hand. He will make sure you catch fish!!
