Redfish madness
The last few weeks on the water have been absolutely incredible. If I had to take a guess on how many red fish we caught in the last weeks I would say 250 to 300. Most of the fish we've caught have been in 3 foot or less of water on a popping cork and shrimp. A lot of the recent trips I've ran have had non-stop action from the first cast to the last one. If you want to come get in on some of this action book a trip and let's go make some memories!

High winds pushed the fish into deeper waters but we found a few keepers.

Fishing is hot in trinity bay. Red, trout, & drum by the hundreds. Mostly small with keepers blended in. Bigger reds are showing up for the fall run. Bait of choice fresh dead shrimp on popping cork.

Kids are schooling but so are the fish!
With the late Summer patterns the fish are schooling on deep structure in 8 to 12 ft of water! Our main tactics have been using a popping cork with 3 foot of 40lb leader, split shot and a #4 treble hook with a live shrimp hooked in the tail. We've had multiple outings where our shrimp has been attacked within the first 10 seconds of hitting the water! The fast and furious action will continue on this deep structure for the entire month of September and in to the first week of...

The fast and furious action will continue on this deep structure for the entire month of September and in to the first week of
October. In the previous years, once we get the first cool snap of the year the fish will migrate from this deep structure to mouth's of bayou's, drains and rivers to ambush shrimp, shad, mullet and glass minnows being flushed from the shallows. Just because the kids are back to school doesn't mean you can't come out at and have fishing trip of a lifetime. Get your trip booked and let's go make some memories! Tight lines

    Ken was wonderful. It felt like fishing with an old fishing buddy. Very personable, very friendly and laid back experience. Ken knows the area, and the best spots well. He was also very conciencious. Our family felt perfectly safe the entire time.

    Trip: Let's Get Out There!

  • ★★★★★
    I had the best trip out with Captain Leb and his brother. As a VERY novice fisherman, I felt comfortable and at ease. They taught me so much and time just flew by. I cannot recommend this charter enough- they are kind, funny, and of course knowledgeable. Bonus: it was just me, a female, on the trip. Felt like I was fishing with two of my brothers. Can’t wait to get back down here.

    Mark was a great guide. I’ve been on many charters but Mark definitely took things to a whole new level. He made sure we caught a fish and helped us the entire catch. Mark is very knowledgeable in his craft and I’ll definitely be returning to him in the near future.
