    Captain Randy consistently delivers outstanding fishing experiences in Port Aransas, earning praise from families, beginners, and seasoned anglers alike. His deep knowledge of local waters means he knows exactly where to find reds, trout, and sheepshead, even on challenging days when conditions aren't ideal. Reviewers rave about his patient teaching style and ability to keep everyone engaged, making him especially popular with kids and first-time fishermen. His wife Amy gets frequent mentions for excellent communication leading up to trips, offering helpful advice about the area and making the booking process smooth. What really sets Randy apart is how personable he is on the water. Multiple guests mention feeling like part of the family or counting him as a friend by trip's end. He works hard to put clients on fish, repositioning when needed and adapting techniques throughout the day. Beyond fishing charters, they can arrange comprehensive packages including accommodations and even a chef to prepare your catch. Return customers are common, with many families already planning their next trip before the first one ends.

    We’ve gone out twice now with Captain Randy at Red Tag Guide Service and both trips were absolutely incredible! Captain Randy is fantastic with kids, incredibly patient, kind, and clearly knows where to find the fish! He made sure everyone had a great time and created memories our family will never forget. Highly, highly recommend and we can’t wait to book again next time we’re in Port A!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
