It is summertime on South Padre Island and the fishing is easy! Lots of families and kids on the last several trips. The speckled trout bite has been solid and the results of Texas Parks and wildlife dropping the trout limit is showing itself in full force with an average of at least one trout over 25 inches almost every day and sometimes several per day.
Fly Fishing trips have had plenty of shots at redfish in pods, loose schools and singles. Mixed with that are legitimate shots at snook and over slot speckled trout. As soon as the wind settles down, nearshore Tarpon Fishing will be in full swing. The fish are here but we have not been able to get to them with the wind howling like it has been. I have had several groups taking advantage of my twilight specials which leave the house at 5:30 in Fish until dark at a decreased price. Catching has been good and the sunsets have been outstanding.
You might get lucky (as long as things are in-season).

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!!
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.
