Ratings & Reviews Summary
October 18, 2025
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!
October 18, 2025
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.
October 18, 2025
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!
October 18, 2025
Captain Jared was fantastic to fish with. A storm rolled in early on our trip, which was the only downside, but of course that’s out of anyone’s control. Even with the weather, within the first hour we landed two keeper Reds, and I have no doubt we would’ve hooked plenty more if the storm hadn’t cut things short. My son-in-law had such a great time that he spent the rest of the weekend fishing off the beach around Port Aransas and didn’t want to put the rod down. Big thanks to Captain Jared—we’re already looking forward to booking again (hopefully with clear skies next time)!
October 18, 2025
My son (Moose) and I had an incredible 5-hour trip on the water with Jared Huffman—known around Port Aransas as Hookin’ Huffman. Even though the fish weren’t biting much that day, it didn’t take away from the experience. Jared’s professionalism, energy, and deep knowledge of the area made it a trip we’ll never forget. He kept us laughing, taught us plenty, and worked tirelessly to find fish. The boat was spotless, the gear was excellent, and you could tell he takes real pride in his work. More importantly, it was clear how much he cares about making sure his clients enjoy themselves. If you want a guide who treats you like family and makes every minute on the water count, Hookin’ Huffman is the one to book. Moose and I can’t wait to go back out with him—next time we’ll be sure to bring the fish along!
October 18, 2025
We had such a great time fishing with Captain Jared! He was laid-back, welcoming, and made the whole trip enjoyable. He took us to several spots where we caught a mix of Reds, Speckled Trout, Catfish, a big Perch, a Toadfish, and even a Stingray—my son was especially excited about that catch. While we only brought home one keeper, the fun and memories were more than enough. Jared kept me updated on the weather, made sure we were safe and comfortable, and even recommended spots for bait and tackle. His knowledge of the area and attention to detail really stood out. We’ll definitely be booking with him again. Thanks for an awesome trip, Captain Jared!
