trip description for Coastal Bend Honey Holes in Corpus Christi

Texas' Coastal Bend region is a fisherman's paradise, with abundant opportunities to catch Redfish, Trout, Sheepshead, and more in the shallow backwaters and marshes. On this charter fishing trip, guests can experience the thrill of reeling in these species, which are a blast to catch for any saltwater angler! Once you're out on the water aboard Captain Gabriel's 20' Everglades bay boat, you'll have the chance to use a variety of techniques to catch Reds and Trout, including sight casting with lures or bait, "soaking" cut shrimp on the bottom, or using popping corks to create a commotion that will attract the fish. The shallow water makes for an exciting and challenging fishing experience, as the fish can be easily spooked and will require quick reflexes and a deft touch to catch. After a day of fishing, guests will return to the dock with their catch, which can be cleaned and filleted by the captain. Go home with a trophy, a full cooler, and a camera full of lifelong memories! Read More
