The fishing has been good. Catching lots of nice trout on finger mullet in the bays. Early morning top water bite has been excellent for big redfish and trout. Flounder gigging trips have also had good success.

My other groups have been catching steady on shrimp under a popping cork. But the big bites have been coming from wading throwing top waters in the morning and moving out to deeper water in the afternoons

The Red Snapper bite has been decent this year in 100 -200ft of water, and the King Mackerel bite is in full swing the past few weeks. Even a few stray Mahi every now and then.

Fishing has been good when the weather is right. Catching redfish drifting over the flats in East Matagorda Bay on live shrimp and lures first thing in the morning. And have been catching trout wading and drifting over reefs throwing croaker and lures as well.

First time fishing with Captain Jay and what a great trip! Probably the most fish I have ever caught on a single trip. He was extremely knowledgeable and a blast to fish with. Fished under birds and caught back to back Trout all morning that were just undersized. Jay knew we wanted keepers so we kept fishing till we got on a sand Trout honey hole. Captain Jay was kind enough to extend our trip so we could keep filling the ice chest. Thank you Cap! Look forward to our next trip with you.

★★★★★
Absolutely 5 stars!! If I could rate it 10 stars… I WOULD. Man did we get lucky, paid for the nearshore 8 hours and Captain Rodney was nice enough to have his offshore boat come pick us up 20 miles offshore to take us deep sea fishing because we wanted to catch red snappers. Captain Jeb and James were the best of the best in what they do as well! All around amazing trip! Definitely coming back to get that Amberjack trip!

Trip: A Nearshore Party In Paradise
★★★★★
Capt Rodney was wonderful. At the beginning of trip he asked what we were looking for during this fishing trip. We said we wanted some good fish. After getting our Red Snapper limit very quickly we had a lot of time left so he asked if we wanted to fill ice chest or try for some other game fish. We wanted to try for better game fish. We headed further out in search of fish. He spotted some floating grass so we trolled for some Mahi. Got one and missed one. We then headed out again. We then stopped and rigged up trying to find some tuna. On first pass we hooked up on a Wahoo for a good fight and catch. We continued to troll hooking up on more Wahoo and BkackFin Tuna. We finished up and headed back in due to storms in our area. All in all it was a great trip, not only because of the catches we made but because of Captain Rodney. He took the time to make this “our trip” and a trip we would remember. Captain Rodney was a wonderful Captain and Host. We will be back to see him. Thanks Captain Rodney.
