As winter approaches us the artificial bite real fires off. With water temps in the low 60's I've been targeting muddy flats with scattered grass. Reds are still holding to the shoreline with warmer days. Trout have been hanging on the edge of these flats in waist deep water. Look for your cleaner water with bait activity. Follow your bait you will find the fish.

Fishing has been great, looks like the weather might be a little rough this week. Calm days between fronts should be amazing though.

Enjoying the month of November and the first 2-weeks of December off no floundering during this time of year. After the 15th December that's when the big flounder run is 6-8 pound flounder are common. And of course there's sheep head and drum running as well.

Trout and redfish have been good up until mid morning while drifting using live bait. Anchor fishing the potholes while using fresh cut mullet has also been producing when we have some wind.

    Trip: Rockport Bay Slam

  • ★★★★★
    This experience was EPIC. We were blown away by Tommy’s knowledge and his keen instinct of where the fish were. It was INCREDIBLE. This captain has over 30 years on these waters and we are confident he is the fish whisperer of the Rockport waters We will never go on a trip with anyone but Captain Tommy. Book with him , you WILL NOT regret it BEST EXPERIENCE EVER CAUGHT LOADS OF FISH AND GOT OUR REDFISH TOO!!!!

    Tommy could not have been more easy going, I took my 14 year old daughter and he could not have more patient with her. We caught a tagged red, along with multiple other keepers. You know you have a good guide when all the other guides are asking him where the fish are. Thank you Tommy I will be fishing with you again soon.

    Trip: Half Day Rockport Slam

  • ★★★★★
    I brought my teenage sons to Rockport for their first red trip. Tommy was the perfect guide for us. He was patient, helpful and took the time to teach us about the reds and how they move. He talked to them about proper technique and how important it is to be patient. Tommy is the best. And he put us on fish as soon as the anchor dropped. The boys had the best day they’ve ever had fishing. We landed ten and put 6 in the cooler. My son Zeke landed the red of the day at 31.5”. He gladly released the fatty when Tommy explained the importance of those big fish to the breeding cycle. All in all a perfect day on the water thanks to Tommy. We’ll see you again Captain.

    Great day out fishing with Capt. Tommy. He took great care to make sure we had an enjoyable time. It was like we were with a good friend out to drown some fish for dinner. If you want to find Reds, he knows where to go. Don't hesitate. Book him.

    Redfish Success with Captain Tommy – Rockport, TX Despite a windy day and high water near Aransas Pass, Captain Tommy put us right on the fish. The flats were tough, but he still knocked out a two-man limit of redfish in just three hours—no small feat under those conditions. His personality was a great mix of humor and local know-how. While he didn’t spill too many trade secrets (understandably!), he kept the trip engaging and productive. If you’re chasing reds around Rockport, he’s absolutely worth booking. Solid guide, solid results.
