Outfitter 42 years of exp.
Captain Jody offers Rockport fishing charters chasing Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more all year round. With over 35 years of experience, Captain Jody is a professional, knowledgeable, and personable guide who loves sharing his time on the water with others. If hog hunting is more your speed, Jody also offers trips to help clean up the invasive hog problem in Texas.

Fish aboard Captain Jody's brand new 2019 25’ Haynie bay boat, complete with the latest marine electronics and safety gear, a 350 HP Mercury engine, a wireless trolling motor, and a live well for bait. The boat also has 2 onboard coolers, one for your refreshments and one for the catch, and can accommodate up to 4 anglers fishing at once.

Captain Jody will supply top-notch equipment (he mostly uses Falcon), and he's happy to fish with artificial lures and/or live bait.

The run to the grounds is never a long one, and you'll be casting to Speckled Trout, Redfish, Flounder, and Black Drum in no time.

After your trip, Captain Jody will clean and fillet your catch....

We fished 3 days with Jody in late July, and had an incredible experience. Caught our limit of sea trout every morning, even under the most trying of circumstances — wind, heat, full moon. Jody was at all times helpful, and his 40 plus years of guiding made for really informative and fun conversations. He worked really hard to ensure we had a great experience. Can’t ask for a better guide, and we look forward...

Jody was a great guide!
Our group of 4 was a last minute booking and he was a true professional, and got us on fish! 4 limits of trout on an afternoon trip, plus oversized catch and release fish. Efficient use of time getting us to spots, good intuition on when to stay put or move spots. He was a helpful coach and easy to get along with out on the water.

Captain Jody was a great guide for me and my 3 sons! Two of my sons had never been fishing before and Captain Jody was patient and a great teacher. He knew the spots where the fish would be hitting, and we caught our limit of trout. Then back at the dock he fillet our fish quickly and precisely.We had a great time and would definitely recommend a trip with Jody.
