Ok so Im gonna give this a go. Ive came up with pricing and other pertinent information in regards to the trips.

All trips will be out of the High Island/Gilchrist/Crystal Beach areas.

Redfish trips only, meaning only cast able surf rods. (You can still catch sharks on surf rods, I will not be deploying the big gear for the bigger sharks 300-600 yards out)
6 hour trip-$200.00
8 hour trip-$250.00
12 hour trip (sun up till sun down) $400.00
Overnight trip (example 6pm-6am) $500.00
The 8hr,12hr and overnight trip will include a meal of some kind cooked on bbq pit.

Shark and Red trips, meaning cast able surf rods and boat out shark rods information.
6 hour-$250.00
8 hour-$300.00
12 hour$450.00
Overnight trip $550.00
Like mentioned above; the 8hr, 12hr and over night trips will include one meal.
On the overnight shark and red trips I will bring my shark trailer which consist of a fishing platform and an inclosed area for napping.

All trips will include the use of my rods, reels, line, leaders weights and bait. During the shark trips, Ill provide the kayak and also be the one responsible for running lines out regardless of day or night.

Depending on customers preference on crabs and our location, I will also put out 4 crab traps as an added bonus.
The trips will include step by step instructions on rigging red/shark leaders, how to cast a long rod, explanation of which rigs to use based on current conditions and targeted species and how to rig up the different types of bait we will use. Ill also give crash courses on how to clean/process kept fish. Currently I have 4 surf rods and 4 shark rods.

The above mentioned rates are for two adults (17-99 years old). Kids under 17 dont count and are welcome to come along. Any adult over the two persons will be an extra $50.00 towards the original rate.

Ok now to something I want everyone who may be interested to keep in mind. I purely pick my areas on the beach based off bird/bait activity and also surf conditions. There is no possible way for me to guarantee that we will catch anything. However, I feel confident in my knowledge and experience that I can definitely give you the best chance at hooking and landing one of the biggest fish of your life. Id love to earn your business if youd allow me. I can assure you I will stay busy the entire time working for the customers. At this point in my life Ive helped many friends, family and strangers be successful and catch giant fish off the sand. There are a couple folks on here that Ive helped and I would later find out that they were successful. Hopefully those folks can give me a good reference!

My name is Cody Davis; phone # is 409-658-3652. Please give me the opportunity to earn your business. If interested you can call, text or send me a message on here.

Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!
Ive included some photos for your viewing pleasure.

Took out Ashlee and John on 5/31 for bull red trip. Mullet was scarce but I did have a medium sized cownose, so I cut it up and casted it out. Within an hour, 3 sharks and a huge gafttop had hit the sand. Ashlee caught the biggest shark which measured 42. I was extremely proud of both of them. They set the hook and landed the sharks with minimal assistance. Both of them caught their pbs from the sand that day. It was nice to spend the day with them and explain/teach them the ins and outs of fishing the surf.

Cody, great job man! Looks like your clients had a great time!

Can a person buy cow nose stingray or any kind of stingray at local bait shops or is it a catch your own kind of deal?

Most bait shops down here carry both cownose and southern.
