The new moon had the tarpon firing off this week. The afternoon crab tides did not disappoint. We had some trips hooking fish into the double digits while other trips there were plenty of fish to go around. We still have openings for the full moon the next two weeks, don’t miss out on your chance at hooking up to the silver king!

We’ve also had a mixed bag inshore with some Cobia, giant trout and plenty of snook mixed on.

There are big drum in big schools up to 100s of them. You can find them in 4ft of water and sight cast them. Now this time of year. We saw a school today kicking up mud look for crabs and were marking them on side scan on the lowrance but it was 15ft deep with current so harder to get a bait directly in front of them.
Also Goliath grouper from end of January. The water behind the people was so calm that was 7 miles offshore at a whopping 11ft deep

    Trip: Orange Beach Bottom Fishing

  • ★★★★★
    We had terrible weather for our trip which made the day slow, but Keith has a great positive attitude and energy and worked hard to put us on the fish. Despite the very poor weather, we were still able to catch a few sharks (our target) and some other fish. We appreciated Keith’s focus and hard work to give us success!

    Cade was awesome! He put us on the fish early and we didn’t get off them until we headed back to the dock! We caught Spanish mackerel, spade fish, and catfish mostly. We had 17 keepers that we took back and cooked. Great captain & guide!

    My Family and I had Fantastic Fishing Experience with Captain Arturo…!!! He was absolutely amazing with his knowledge and patient with showing the proper techniques to catch an abundance of fish. So much, that other Captains came to the spot where we were fishing lol. Looking forward to the next trip with my family to South Padre and I will definitely be planning my fishing trip moving forward with Arturo 🎣

    Alex is a consummate professional; demonstrates the uncommon ability to banter with and keep kids on the fish while being relatable to adults. If you want your crew to experience a great time and remain comfortable, this is your guy.
