Dolphin Dock

Went fishing with my husband, 2 sons and extended family for an 8hr trip in June. Red snapper season. Had a blast almost everyone was hooking snappers left and right. We went to 3 different spots. I wish we could have switched to try some sharks but I think they were waiting to max out on snappers and there were a few people not catching anything so we never did. Overall we had a super fun trip. We went back last weekend with my husband, son, and daughter. No one else had signed up for the 8hr trip so we got bumped to the 4hr. We were a little disappointed but I guess you can't control those types of things. Headed out about an hour. As soon as we dropped our lines me and my son's gf hooked bonnethead sharks! After that my hubby, and daughter caught one each. We hooked some bait fish and my hubby hooked a Mangrove Snapper. Only my son didn't catch anything. We all still really enjoyed ourselves! We can't wait to plan another trip! Both trips, all the guys were super nice and helpful. Sometimes you have to wait a bit if everyone's catching at the same time, but they try to get to you as fast as possible to unhook your fish and rehook your line if it snapped. Thanks for making both trips extremely enjoyable!!! We'll be back!

Terrible, I know it's really not their fault but kind of is, not even a bite. We moved one time and I kept the same bait on my pole most of the trip. No bites and no one caught anything. I've been on many trips, most with deep sea headquarters, couldn't use them this time, they were booked. Will wait next time.

I will be giving them one more shot next season after a phone call that I didn't ask for. Very much appreciated

We did a fishing excursion while in Port Aransas with this business. First most all of the employees were nice and helpful. However we paid to fish right? They took time from us both there and back, fishing for themselves. On top of that got us in wrong waters so we had to real in, move to reposition. Then we will got back 15 minutes early. It was a 5 hr but poles in the water 45 minutes.

Incredible experience! Friendly and professional staff; very informative website detailing all you'll need to know for a great time.

They will take you to the fish, it's up to you to catch the fish. It is a LONG trip out and back so be prepared for that. Also, there are many people who do this enough to make it a pain for the newbies. They line up first and herd to the preferred spots. Be prepared to relax or take your spot in the elbow shoving match.The biggest disappointment is that they forbid you from bringing your own food & drinks so that they can charge you airport prices during the time that you are trapped on their boat. Which is likely to be somewhere around 12 hours. If you are like anyone else, you will get hungry & thirsty during that time. So when you plan your trip, make sure you factor in the gauging prices in your budget. If you want your fish cleaned, you will pay an additional $.40 to $.65 per pound for them to do it for you. Some may think this is a deal. Remember that depending on the fish, you will likely get 1/3 fish flesh you can eat and the other 2/3 gets pitched. So when they weigh 12 pounds of fish, you will get 4. Be aware.Again, you will catch fish but you better know how so either watch some YouTube videos before going out or go with someone who can teach you.

Me and my family took a 5 hour fishing trip on a Sunday it was 90$ a person we maybe stoped to fish maybe 20 minutes there were so many people I did not even get a pole and did not get to fish before the crew said we were leaving. We arrived back 30 minutes early . We were told we would return at 8:30 they just wanted to get as many people on the boat go out and back as quickly as possible I would not recommend this business.

Risky company. THEY canceled and can't refund my money until their accountant is back. Unbelievable. Booked a month in advance, fully paid. Was told 2 days before the trip it was canceled because other spots were canceled/not filled. Found replacements for these spots same day and was again told there was nothing they could do, that they already notified the captain. Still 2 days before trip. We had people fly in from out of state for this trip. Now it's too last minute and everywhere else is booked. No compromise or working with us. Lady in the office is brutal. That they can cancel and not refund my money immediately is shady to say the least.

They rocked it like they knew what they were doing!! The captain and staff gave specific direction on how to catch the fish that were there. It was definitely not their best haul but we did well following the guidance given. My only complaint was at the end when we were paying to have our fish cleaned. Who ever that was has a big mouth and shouldn't be allowed to interact with paying customers.If you aren't happy with the fish we kept talk to your deck hands!

Booked a "five hour" fishing trip. Fished for 30 minutes. Two hours there, two hours back and literally had lines in the water for 30 min before we were told to reel them in. No one told us there is a two red snapper limit per person before the trip. So we paid $190 for two of us to ride for four hours and come back with four fish. There were only two deckhands for 20 customers and they don't want you to bring your catch in the boat without their help. We were all standing on the boat, holding suspended fish yelling "fish on", waiting for the deckhands to come bring it in the boat. Ridiculous. No instructions from crew on using open faced reels which is no problem for those of us who fish, but several ladies and some kids had a rough time. I helped as many as I could in the 30 min we were allowed to fish. On the two hour trip back, the customers were constantly being asked to get up and move so the deckhands could clean the boat. How about wait until we get back to the dock? With tips, Texas one day fishing license (which no one asked to see), fish cleaning and charter fees; it was nearly $300 for 8 fish fillets. Not worth it.
