About Your Trip
Get ready to experience some of the best inshore fishing the Texas coast has to offer with Captain Ryan at the helm! Running trips out of Port Mansfield, South Padre Island, and Arroyo City, Captain Ryan gives you access to the Lower Laguna Madre—one of the most productive and scenic fisheries in the entire state. Whether you're a seasoned angler or brand new to fishing, this trip is designed to deliver an unforgettable day on
the water.
You'll fish aboard a 2023 23’ Majek bay boat, powered by a 250 HP Suzuki engine. Built for performance and comfort, this sleek bay boat is made to glide effortlessly through shallow flats and backwater channels. With room for up to 6 guests, it’s the perfect platform for a family outing, a group of friends, or a solo angler looking to get dialed in.
Captain Ryan targets all the inshore favorites—including Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more—using a mix of light tackle and live bait (available for an additional fee). Whether you want to sight-cast to cruising Reds on the flats or drift over deeper cuts for Trout, he’ll customize the trip to match your goals and experience level. Beginners will find patient instruction and plenty of action, while advanced anglers will appreciate Ryan’s deep local knowledge and tactical approach.
The boat is outfitted with GPS, a live bait well, and an ice box to keep your drinks and catch cold. All rods, reels, and tackle are provided, and at the end of the trip, Captain Ryan will gladly clean your catch so you can take home a fresh fish dinner.
These trips are kid-friendly, and families are more than welcome—Captain Ryan knows how to keep things fun, safe, and exciting for anglers of all ages. Feel free to bring along your favorite snacks and drinks (just leave the glass at home), and get ready for a laid-back day on the beautiful Texas coast.
