The bay fishing has remained good through out the past couple of weeks. Catching solid redfish out on the flats around South Padre. Fresh cut mullet or ballyhoo rigged up and off the bottom is working great. Catching both reds and speckled trout on soft plastics that resemble mullet-type lures. Try working plastics slower than normal across sand potholes. Trout are hanging in deeper water transitions. Good time to go hook into some good fish here at South Padre.

Hey! Good morning, started back up this week after the holidays. Water temps have cooled off and water temps have dropped. Surf is full of big redfish slots and oversize. At the same time the sharks, stingrays and trash fish have all gone to deeper waters and are very rare for the next few months. I expect the bite to continue to be mid-day & afternoon as the waters warm up and get the bait moving

Rockport/Aransas Pass area, we have had a great weather pattern lately as well as lower tides. Those 2 things combined have resulted in some great catching days. Water temps in low 70s, air temps in upper 70s, fish have gotten concentrated in drains and guts. I only use artificial baits, fishing over grass flats with pots holes close to deeper water. Downsouth lures, Pavlures, knocking tail lures with soft dines and double Ds. Multiple flavors all based on water clarity. Incorporating the major and minors will help give you more opportunities to catch fish.

We are still catching a few redfish, along with pup drum and sheepshead at Galveston jetties on live shrimp. Best bite has been on outgoing tide, coinciding with favorable weather conditions between cold fronts.

    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 🎣

    Trip: Inshore: 3 Hour Trip

  • ★★★★★
    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an outstanding trip with Captain Anthony. The weather forecast ended up being way off, and we were dealing with 3–4 foot swells, but that didn’t stop him from putting us on the trout. His experience and determination really showed, and he worked hard to make sure we had a successful day on the water. I took my three boys, and every one of us had an incredible time. The boat was clean, comfortable, and handled the rough conditions with ease. Captain Anthony was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire trip enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for a captain who knows how to find fish even when the conditions aren’t ideal, I highly recommend booking with Captain Anthony. We’ll definitely be back!

    It may not have been our day to pull sharks out of the water but Tristan and his team made for a fantastic experience.. I asked lots of questions about the strategies they used to fish and learned so much. My family enjoyed their time and we will be looking forward to a future guided fish trip. Thanks again guys. Be safe out there

    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.
