Fishing the Coastal Bend in Port A and Aransas Pass has been steady even with water temperatures in the upper 80's and low 90's. Red Drum being caught on cut mullet, and Piggy Perch up shallow near grass lines. Black drum are scattered in deeper water off channel edges. Lots of trout being caught on grass edges with Piggy perch.

We've had a lower than normal tide since the full moon, the shallows have had lots of tailing pods. Deeper water areas, the fish seem to be in bigger schools. Which makes for long stretches without singles, unless you find the pods. Lots of small shrimp in the grass flats.

    Our fishing experience with Travis was a great one! Travis was very knowledgeable about the waters, the best fishing spots, and what it took to make our trip successful. He was friendly, patient, and helpful throughout the entire experience. We had a wonderful time. We caught 13 black drum and one big red drum. We would definitely recommend Travis to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and experienced fishing guide. We look forward to fishing with him again!!!! FISH ON!!!

    Travis was knowledgeable, attentive to detail, and worked very hard to put me and my friend on some solid trout and redfish. I will fish with him again He also did a wonderful job cleaning and packing our fish!

    Great morning with Travis. Got us onto fish straight away and our two boys loved it. A 30” redfish started things off and we finished with a 5-6ft alligator gar, with plenty of others between them. Highly recommend a trip out with Travis!

    Had a great time. Slow start but s great finish. Probably the weather. But was the most fish we have caught in a long time. Hit the grand slam. We really enjoyed the trip Travis. Thank you so much. We will be back!!! And don't forget, if you find that cork let me know what it was and how big. Trey, thanks for your help in getting everything worked out on the booking. You got us a great guide. 👍👍👍

    Travis did as good a job as any guide can do. He put us fish. We limited out on one species and found another but didn’t get any keepers.
