It's going to be flat all the way till monday. Out side the jetties will be producing by bull reds and sharks.... offshore trolling for big king fish and rock fishing will be good.

Fishing has been good, lure under a cork seem to be doing the trick right now as well as shrimp under the cork. We've been seeing more numbers of redfish and it's been great!

    Great duck hunt, plenty of ducks . Enjoyed the hunt with Mike put me on the ducks. Unfortunately was busy enjoying the hunt with Mike and didn't take any pictures. I will be back for another duck hunt.

    Me and my family went out with captain Zach and had an awesome day. Weather wasn’t in our favour but made the best of it and landed some fish! Captain Zach was very helpful, runs good fishing gear and has a beautiful boat. Will be booking our next trip with him when we’re back in south Padre for a family vacation!

    Ruben was amazing! He knew the areas to go to catch fish, but we got so much more. We saw dolphins swimming, learned more about the area, and caught so many fish! His recommendations for where to take our fish for dinner was also great! We will book another trip with him!

    We had an amazing time fishing with Captain Cliff in South Padre Island! He was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the trip, ensuring we were comfortable and had a great experience. The boat was spacious and well-maintained, giving us plenty of room to enjoy our time on the water. Captain Cliff was friendly, timely, and took us to some fantastic fishing spots. We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a fun and successful fishing adventure!
