Fishing Report: Captain Michael. 12/1/23. The bay fishing has been producing some nice solid fish. Redfish are moving out along grass flats and are hitting fresh cut bait and lures. If lure fishing throw lures that resemble the same colors that match the real bait. Match the hatch color schemes. Fish will start off in deeper water and move into shallower adjacent water as temperatures rise. Speckled trout are hanging along deeper water drop offs. Larger soft plastic in the winter are a good choice. Sheepshead fishing should turn on sometime soon. This is also a good time to try...

Hey Captain Roy here with another Red Snapper report. Our Federal Season continues to produce hogs each and every trip. The bigger fish have actually been caught at 70-100ft of water suspended above the wrecks. We have been hammering quick limits with cut bait and live piggy perch. There is of time to book your trip, so check out these picks and let's go rip some

    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 🎣

    We had such a fantastic time with Tim! We took the half-day tour, and we even wrapped it up early because we had limited out on Trout. Tim was such a great and funny guide, showing us how and where to throw the bait/lures so we could catch fish—and we did! I would definitely recommend Tim for your next fishing trip to SPI. We’re always booking with Tim when we’re back here.

Seriously had a great time and he taught me some tricks 🤩 i could go on but seriously, don’t hesitate, book with him! Communication from day one, outstanding! We were too busy enjoying his company and expertise, we only took one pic, lol! Thank you Arturo!!

    Trip: Full Or Half Day Inshore

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time fishing with Joshua. The sunrise ride out was perfect. In spite of it being a little windy, the day was all we could ask for. An opportunity to check out of this crazy world, come into direction connection with your maker and enjoy fishing, like it was meant to be. Josh got us on fish early and we experienced a healthy haul of snapper. We caught a couple strawberry grouper and a king and a half. Can't out fish the shark. If you're looking for an opportunity to check out, you can do so safely and comfortably with Joshua.

    We had a great time with Cappy! He was very patient with us, since we were beginners to deep sea fishing. He took time to explain the boat, equipment, what we were fishing for, where and why. We had a lot of fun! Saw some dolphins, a sea turtle. Most importantly though we caught a lot of fish. Not all were keepers but we kept him hoppin' between my husband and I reeling them in. Definitely an experience we recommend and will do again.
