September 20, 2025Captain Randy had to work hard to find the fish today. No wind and water that looked like glass meant the Red bite was off. He finialy suggested we move to trout and we managed to limit out on trout with one lone red fish. The captain never gave up and we ended the trip with fish in the cooler and a great day on the water. I highly recommend Captian Randy Fillabite he will do his absolute best to get you on fish.

September 8, 2025My son and I have used Captain Randy before. He is a knowledgeable Captain. He got us on our fish right away, and we caught our limit. Then we still had time to go look for some big ones. It was a great day and he made sure we got our fish.

July 15, 2025Randy was the best! A very knowlegable guide with a lifetime of fishing Aransas waters. Terrific bost that is very easy to fish out of. But put that all aside, Randy was all about making sure we all had a great time. Fun to talk to and be around.

March 21, 2025Writing on behalf of my husband as I booked it: My brother, dad, and I were gifted an incredible inshore fishing adventure, a surprise from our amazing wives and mom, and it was hands down one of the best presents ever! We booked with Randy Filla, and from the get-go, we knew we were in for a fantastic time. The morning started off a little slow, which is just part of fishing. But even with the slow start, Randy was an absolute blast. His personality was infectious, filled with hilarious stories and a wealth of fishing knowledge. He kept us entertained and engaged, making the initial lull feel like a fun part of the overall experience. Then, the fishing gods smiled upon us! About two hours in, Randy put us right on top of schools of redfish and black drum. It was like a light switch flipped, and the action was non-stop! We were pulling in fish two and three at a time, with bent rods and screaming reels. The excitement was palpable, and the smiles on our faces were huge. Adding to the thrill, a pod of dolphins showed up, playfully stalking the fish we were releasing. It was an amazing spectacle, witnessing these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat while we were reeling in our catches. We ended the day with our limit of both redfish and black drum, a testament to Randy's expertise and the sheer abundance of fish in the area. But more than the impressive catch, it was the incredible bonding experience with my brother and dad that made this trip truly unforgettable. We shared laughs, fished together, and created memories that will last a lifetime. Randy Filla provided an exceptional experience from start to finish. From his entertaining and knowledgeable guidance to the incredible fishing action, this trip was a complete success. If you're looking for an unforgettable inshore fishing adventure, especially for a family outing—and if your wives and mom are looking for a perfect gift—look no further. We can't wait to book another trip with Randy! Highly recommend!

May 3, 2024Randy is fantastic! He took us to the perfect spots for catching fish. It was probably one of the best fishing trips we've ever had. My wife and I highly recommend him. We will definitely be back and will book with Randy again.

March 27, 2024Upon our 7am arrival, Captain Randy greeted us and provided a safe place for our valuables. He then ensured our comfort on the boat, offering information about our fishing targets and techniques. Within about 10 minutes, we reached the first of several fishing spots where Randy took care of everything, engaging us in conversation and handing us the rods. By the end of the 3.5-hour trip, we had caught 10 fish and enjoyed insightful conversations about the area, providing us with new ideas to explore.

September 23, 2023In late September, during a warm and muggy morning, Captain Randy Filla guided my wife and me to a successful and highly enjoyable fishing trip, where we each caught our limits of Red Drum. We appreciated his professionalism and his dedication to finding and catching fish. Both of us look forward to fishing with Captain Randy again in the future.

August 26, 2023Our fishing trip with Randy was fantastic. He was extremely professional, knew precisely where to find the fish, and even led us to a school of reds! I highly recommend booking a charter with him.
