Took my two young boys out with Captain Cody, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible experience. It felt like he had eight arms, effortlessly juggling everything to make sure we were having a blast. From engaging conversation to expertly putting us on fish, Cody did it all. He even took the time to teach the boys how to cast, hook, and reel in their catches, offering valuable tips along the way. We left with plenty of fillets and unforgettable memories. Whether you have kids or not, Cody is the perfect guide for an unforgettable adventure. Huge thanks to Cody for an amazing trip!

Captain Cody skillfully guided us to a successful flounder gigging expedition. His expertise and keen eye for underwater treasures ensured we didn't come up short. Despite my initial gigging jitters, Cody provided clear direction and assistance, leading us to fruitful spots. When conditions shifted, he seamlessly transitioned us to thrilling red fishing action. In less than 30 minutes, we landed two bullreds and two slot reds! Our 4-hour trip was packed with excitement and fruitful catches. With Captain Cody, exceptional fishing experiences are a guarantee.

Captain Cody was absolutely fantastic! I reeled in Drum, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Ladyfish, Catfish, and even encountered a feisty little critter that gave us a laugh. It was non-stop action and an incredible learning experience. When I'm back in Texas, I'll definitely be booking another trip with Cody. His hard work and expertise as a guide shine through, making for an unforgettable adventure. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional fishing experience.
