"Captain Skipper Ray is a very professional and attentive guide. My wife and I both fly, fished and spinned fish for several species. Skipper showed a lot of patients and gave us a lot of tips and helped us land more fish. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have a tight line!"

"Skipper Ray is an amazing guide! I’m a beginner fisher and he was so patient with me. He explained everything very well and helped me catch my first fish! Me and my husband caught 2 limits of trout. Skipper Ray is very knowledgeable of all the ins and outs to fishing the island. Can’t wait to come back and fish with him again!"

"If you like catching your limit Skipper Ray is your guide. I’ve been fishing with him for over 26 years in SPI. I’ve hired guides from LA, Cancun, Costa Rica, and Florida. He has patients for those who try to learn to fish. I know this cause he’s the guide that took me out when I was nine and taught me."

"Skipper Ray is the most knowledgeable fishing captain in the South Padre Island area with over 40 years experience as a licensed fishing guide. He not only will put you on great fish, he will teach you how to catch them too! Skipper also gives Fly Fishing lessons. I can't wait to go again!"

"Skipper Ray is one of the best bay fishing guides in this area. He has lived here most of his life and knows the Lower Laguna Madre like the back of his hand. If you want a good day of fishing for trout, redfish and flounder, give Skip a call. One of the best fly-fisherman also!!"
