Jerry is concerned with showing everyone a safe and enjoyable trip. He works hard to show his clients how to get the most out of their time on the water, what to look for, where to fish and what to respect for conservation. He really enjoys wade fishing with artificial bait and is ready to give advice on what it takes to be successful. His experience includes fishing Matagorda, Palacios, Port O'conner and Baffin Bays which provides him with a great knowledge of the Texas Gulf Coast.

The improvements in the county has made it a very relaxing place to spend some time benefiting from what Matagorda has to offer. This area is beginning to attract visitors from all over Texas and other states. Many also enjoy the birding opportunities it offers.
Matagorda Harbor is a hidden gem of the Texas gulf coast. It offers updated facilities and access to fantastic fishing. It has the best boat ramps, the best cleaning tables, and a fullservice bait facility with secure parking for your vehicle while you enjoy a day of professional fishing.
Capt. West has been fishing from Pathfinder boats for years and is still impressed with the comfortable ride of an excellent bay boat matched with the reliability of a Yamaha four stroke engine that ensures dependability.
You will enjoy fishing with the smoothness of Shimano reels on Castaway rods. You will be prepared to handle the run of a redfish, the speed of quality specks or the thump of a big flounder.
So everyone is invited to come enjoy what we all need more of in this hectic time of day and that's a GREAT DAY ON THE BAY!!!
