Josh and I had an awesome afternoon hunt with this big cold front that came in. There are ducks absolutely everywhere - big flocks of redheads, shovelers, pintails, and blue bills. The tides have been a little struggle, but my Mud Boat is running really well and I can get to shallow water everywhere now. If you would like to book a hunt, give me a call. I have just a few dates left open.

It's been slow as far as customers, but when we are out there fishing has been great! We are catching reds, black drum and big trout. Popping cork fishing has tested us well on the drift 🎣🎣

Fishing has been great! We've been experiencing upper slot and oversized red fish and trout! Throwing popping cork and shrimp/artificial shrimp has proved to be the key. Fishing conditions have been nice with 65-80 degrees. And okay winds 👍🏽 We are drift fishing for the reds and trout and channel fishing anchored down for the black drum

    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.

    Arturo was fantastic and we had an amazing time. Already looking at when we can get with him again. 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.
