I’ve never seen anyone catch big gar and cats around Houston the way Bayou Beasts does. Almost every single week I see new personal records caught by Alex and in a matter of months I’ve seen him go from catching 4 and 5-foot-long gar all the way to 6 and 7 footers topping 140 pounds

Alex took my son out fishing last weekend for the first time. Alex was personable, friendly and obviously passionate about his love for fishing. He is an experienced guide and was eager to share his knowledge with my son. Needless to say, my son had the time of his life last weekend. I would recommend Alex to anyone who is looking for a friendly and professional fishing guide.

I’ve been fishing with Alex for several months now and met him when Bayou Beasts was still starting out at his original spot on the Bayou, it’s been great to see Alex develop his skills and catch some of the biggest fish I’ve ever seen, his Gar catches are something special and he often puts himself and others onto Flathead Catfish in various locations. Fishing with Alex is always fun and has been my tournament partner on several occasions while kayak catfishing. I’d recommended Alex and Bayou Beast to provide an engaging and rewarding fishing experience in Houston.

I’ve actually had the pleasure of fishing with Alex a couple of times. I first ran into him when he was with a client on Buffalo bayou while I was walking with my girlfriend. I had no idea that the fishing in the Houston area was so good. I was immediately interested and got his contact info. I am primarily a fly fisherman but have always wanted to target giant catfish and gar on conventional gear. I set up a trip with Alex at a local spot in Houston as soon as I could. From the moment he greeted me I could tell that he was very professional and passionate about fishing. He had all of the necessary gear and bait and had also checked conditions prior to choosing which spot we fished. He was very informative and patient with me since I was unfamiliar with the tactics to be used but I soon got it dialed in and we got our lines in the water. The first time we fished I managed to land two of my personal best Alligator Gar! Soon after that first trip I had to book another one to attempt a new personal best Gar. On the second trip I was rewarded with an even bigger fish. If you are looking for someone that has local knowledge and who is passionate about both fish and fisheries, then I highly suggest booking a trip with Alex and Bayou Beasts!
