Simply select your date, group size, trip length, and preferred start time above to reserve your spot and join Captain Bubba and the Captain Experiences team.

The guide is flexible regarding your starting location to accommodate your needs. We had the pleasure of fishing with Justin from Garzilla, and it was an incredible experience. He was punctual, engaging, and quickly got us into fish. Justin's professionalism and friendly demeanor made for a fantastic charter—definitely worth the investment if you're aiming for large catches.

The trip was outstanding, with excellent, approachable, and accommodating guides. Even on a chilly, late-season day when conditions were tough, they put great effort into ensuring we found fish and had a memorable outing. Our guide, Cody, made the experience particularly enjoyable, and we're already planning to book again.

Though I’m an avid bass angler, I had never considered fishing for alligator gars until friends from the Czech Republic visited and wanted to check it off their bucket list. Booking through Captain Experiences made the entire process seamless, from start to finish. Shawna was always responsive and kept us informed, while Cody demonstrated expert knowledge and skill on the water. Our largest catch weighed an impressive 160.25 pounds, and I’m definitely looking forward to returning.

Terry Varden of Bubba’s associates and Justin provided us with one of the best fishing experiences we've ever had. We plan to return and bring more friends along next time. Everyone involved was supportive and helpful, making the whole experience enjoyable and hassle-free. Using Captain Experiences was a true pleasure from start to end.
