Jared was awesome—friendly, knowledgeable, and really attentive throughout the trip. We were hoping to catch redfish, and he delivered—8 out of the 10 fish we caught were redfish, including a solid 27-incher. We’ll definitely be booking our next trip with him.

My dad and I went out with Jared and Jodie Penn and had an amazing trip. We definitely caught fish, but what made it special was the perfect mix of fishing, relaxation, and learning—especially since saltwater fishing is new to us. Highly recommend!

I booked this as a father-son trip, and we had a great time with Captain Huffman. Despite the wind and rain, he worked hard to put us on fish and made the whole experience memorable. His knowledge of the bays really showed. I’ll definitely be booking with him again.

We came down for a visit and a friend recommended Captain Jared—glad they did! The trip was worth every penny and then some. He knew exactly where to go, helped us out with everything, and made us feel like we’d known him for years. We come down annually, and from now on, we’re booking with Capt. Jared every time. I’ll be telling all my friends—Hookin Huffman is the way to go!
