If you're looking to make the most of your time in San Antonio, look no further than Gonzalez Guide Service. Led by the experienced Captain Roland, this charter is all about putting guests on fish while making the entire experience smooth, laid-back, and memorable. Whether you're a first-time angler or a seasoned pro, Capt. Roland knows how to guide you through the area's rich freshwater fishery and create a day worth talking about.

The waters around San Antonio are full of fishing potential, with Redfish and Catfish being some of the main targets. These species offer plenty of action, and with a bit of luck, you’ll be reeling them in before you know it. Depending on the conditions and time of year, you may troll or bottom fish using light tackle—an approach that balances fun with effectiveness. Capt. Roland is happy to walk you through everything, so there's no need to be an expert. All experience levels are welcome aboard.

Your adventure takes place on a 24’ Pathfinder bay boat, built with fishing and comfort in mind. With space for up to 5 guests, it’s a great setup for families, friends, or anyone looking to enjoy a calm day on the water. The boat is equipped with downriggers, safety gear, and all the essentials to give you a solid edge when hunting for your catch. Capt. Roland provides all the rods, reels, and tackle, so you can just show up ready to fish. Live bait is available depending on the trip, and you can even catch it yourself if you'd like—just ask the captain ahead of time.

Before heading out, remember to purchase a Texas fishing license. It’s easy to get online, and Capt. Roland can point you in the right direction if you need help. Some species may have specific regulations or seasonal rules, so checking ahead of time helps ensure everything goes smoothly.

To stay comfortable throughout the day, don’t forget to pack essentials like sunblock (non-spray), a hat, polarized sunglasses, snacks, and bottled water. You’re welcome to bring alcohol in moderation, but please avoid hard liquor and glass containers. Capt. Roland prioritizes safety while making sure the vibe stays fun and easygoing.

From start to finish, Gonzalez Guide Service is focused on giving guests more than just a fishing trip—it’s a chance to unwind, connect with nature, and enjoy the peaceful waters of South Texas. When you're ready to catch fish and enjoy good company, Capt. Roland is ready to welcome you aboard.
