Took a half day with Fern and by far best experience we have had with a guide. Very knowledgeable, personable and friendly, not just there to make money, he cares about making sure you have a great time! Each person limited on trout and got a 38” bull red all on a short time.

Fern never fails to put us on the fish and always willing to grind it out. I wouldn’t consider using any other guide in Matagorda

You're not going to find a better Matagorda bay fishing guide than Capt. Fern. My son and I spent a full day with Fern and we caught limits of trout, redfish and a flounder. My son caught his personal best speck, and another highlight for him was catching a small blacktip shark. Fern was a great instructor and just a fun guy to be around. He is very laid back, but he's also completely wired into the Matagorda Bay fishing. My son was having so much fun that we stayed out longer than expected. I can't recommend him enough. Thanks Fern!
