Fishing has been pretty good when wind isn't cranking, just getting back into it, but it's looking like it's gonna be a good season

After our last blast of north winds came through fishing slowed a little. But water temps are climbing back up to the low 70's and rising. Fish moved around quite a bit but we are still on them. The reds are biting on mullet and skipjack in gaswell. But you need to be very patient. Keeper Trout are hanging around the edges of the channel and very hungry. The black drum are in channel as well but they are random at best.

The spring warm up is coming, reds are going to get crazy soon. And some of the trout I've caught already have eggs in them for spawning season. If everything falls together right, should be an awesome spring season!

Captain Mike's South Padre Fishing Report 3/20/26. The bay fishing has remained solid. Catching some heavy speckled trout on soft plastics in deeper water. Redfish are active once the wind kicks up. Catching reds on soft plastics and fresh cut mullet out on the grass flats. The windier conditions have led to some memorable fishing trips with larger plastics. Fish are moving around a lot and a productive area may not be hot on consecutive days. Find some bait activity and the gamefish will be nearby. Black drum are schooled up if you want to target those wormy fish. All in all it's been good fishing and the weather is great.

My Dad and I had a great day of fishing. Although there was rain around Captain Romey was able to put us on some fish while avoiding the rain. We were fortunate enough to land a 40 inch Red on light tackle which was the CHERRY on top of this day.

Rey was an absolute great captain, very knowledgeable, very confident, professional, allowed us to have an awesome time. Knew his was around the boat and water. Helped us catch some great fish. I had my 4 year old along, who loves to fish and Rey was great with him as well. I would recommend anyone to go with him.

Trip: 5hr Power Fishing Trip
★★★★★
All I can say is this was a great trip. Alfonso worked his tail off trying to find some clear water in 20 to 25 mph winds but we managed to get 3 fish. Even with all the winds my wife and I loved the experience with Alfonso. You can tell his passion is fishing and teaching you all he knows about Flounder gigging. We will be using Alfonso again and hopefully less winds next time.

Trip: Laguna Madre Hookfest
★★★★★
Ive been out fishing with many fishing guides from Destin, Fl to Venice, La to now South padre and every where in between. Fred took his time, confident in his technique, experienced in his teachings and didn’t seem to care of the clock regardless of how many fish were in the cooler. If you want to go fishing in south padre book anyone, if you want to go fishing and learn a thing or two, have good conversation and leave with something gained, book with Fred.

We had such an awesome trip with Mike! My boyfriend (who is a lot more advanced) had the best birthday and Mike was kind enough to help me with live bait to make sure I caught a few!
