New booking portal is updated and operational. https://barlows-charters-and-guide-services-llc.square.site
Book now from March on. I still have to finish my website when I have time. For whatever reason I’ve been sick 4 times since new years and have been working on the new boat everyday possible the weather lets me putting the finishing touches on the Rambo 27.
Some major changes are. I can now take up to 6 passengers comfortably, though this is most beneficial during snapper trips as it is easy to bottom fish 6 people. Don’t forget about horn island fun day or camping trips. 6 people fishing inshore/barrier island trips are not ideal as we are all actively casting but it can be done, though not suggested. With the right group and mindset it can work.
Trips offered:
1. Guided Inshore/Barrier Island/Near Coastal
2. 8 hour red snapper/multi species
3. 6 hour red snapper am or pm
4. 4 hour shark
5. 5 hour Horn island fun day trip
6. Horn island Camping
I now offer a single guided inshore/barrier island trip (instead of a 4,6, or 8 hour trip option). This allows us to run to where the fish are without limitations and with the best bait possible, rather it be beyond the barrier islands, way down the beach, or way up the rivers or bayous. These trips will generally last 6 hours, but we can always shorten it on spectacular mornings, or if you need to get back in early. I’m not a stickler on time, if we are struggling and need longer and there is nothing I have planned we may do that.
Growing up fishing nobody ever said “hey let’s go fish for exactly 4, 6, or 8 hours”, we left before the sun was up and usually came back in around lunchtime (dinner to you Texans). By doing this it will allow every angler that steps foot on the boat the best options for success for that day.
All trips will generally leave at or around first light, winter months or weather conditions may dictate a later start. Sometimes the best bite starts 1/2 before sunrise and may not last long.
