What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Freeport, Texas for the first time?

Meet up with captain Marshal booker he is a great captain and I’m sure he’d be more than happy to show anyone how to fish! Young or old Marshal could show them the ropes and get many fish in the boat.

Weather was perfect, not as humid not salty as expected. We stayed in Surfside at a great rental and ate at Seahorse Bar & Grill. Rental was fabulous and grill was also very good - right on the beach. Great time in Freeport.

There is no doubt....book tour trip with Captains Derwyn and Marshall Booker, Texas Deep Sea Fishing. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. They are the most knowledgeable, experienced as well as extremely warm and personable. They will do everything possible to make your trip successful, memorable and enjoyable

Talk to Marshall for sure!! He does not dissapoint, in fishing, or hospitality! Very lively and fun crew to fish with!

Take care in July carry ice with towels to protect from the heat. Wrap a wet towel around your neck and drink plenty of water

I would recommend that anglers fishing in Freeport for the first time to visit the Surfside Marina and enquire about Oliver J Charters.

Have someone who knows what they are doing. We had no clue on what it all took to shark fishing on land. It was an amazing trip.

Be ready for a very experienced, knowledgeable Captain that can put you on the fish and make your trip exciting.

8 miles out the water is very clear and it is very relaxing. The drop method of fishing is very fun.

Keep an open mind and listen to your captain. I wanted to catch a variety of fish because I was bringing 1st timers. Weather changes and fish migrate. We still got reel time.

Sounds like March is a bit in between seasons for fishing. Have reasonable expectations and you’ll still have a great trip.

We went out after the hurricane not many fish but we still had a great trip the captain and crew made the trip very fun and worked hard for us amazing job trying

Contact Captain and ask which species of fish being targeted. Request what species you would like to fish for.

Set in the back of the boat, take plenty of water to drink and don't forget your $2 for the toll road.

If you're fishing in the summer time, stay hydrated! Otherwise, it's a great time of year for some outstanding fishing!

We didn't get the snapper we were looking for, but the King more than made up for it with a good bite. We were hooked up in less than 5 minutes.

Rodney is perfect for a first time fisherman. He will provide all the equipment you need, and bait your hooks.

Lots of sunscreens and water. Plus it is great lif you could do some....warmup cuz the fishes are big and heavy

It’s spring when I went, weather is never predictable and neither is fishing! Water was a little choppy on the way out. Fishing with the dolphins playing was a neat experience.

Would have been nice to keep the AJ and Red Snapper if they were in season but overall great trip!

Be plenty hydrated before coming on board. Good night's rest. Eat a light breakfast.

Watch the heat. Excessive heat advisories. It can sneak up on you quickly and make you sick
