Light Tackle Fishing Charters In Aransas Pass

Bring your waders along for this adventure and head out with Captain Jeff to stalk giant reds and trout up close and personal along the grass lines and flats around the Texas Riviera. Wade fishing allows you stealthily stalk these fish without worrying about your big boat scaring them off, and for the more advanced and thrill-seeking fisherman, this trip allows for a more intimate fight with these sport fish! One of the main reasons more people don't fish this method is because they don't know where to go or when the right time to be out there is. So let Captain Randy show you the ropes and get you on some big fish! Make sure to bring a valid Texas Fishing License, a hat, sunscreen, and any food and drinks of your choice (no glass). Captain Jeff will provide all rods, reels, and tackle. You can purchase live bait and fish cleaning for an additional price. Learn to fish new techniques and create lasting memories on the water while reeling in your personal best with Captain Jeff Read More

Climb aboard with Captain Kevin for an action-packed day of bay fishing the Coastal Bend out of Aransas Pass! Captain Kevin usually runs his half day trips from 7am - 11am but if the bite is slow, he will often stay out an extra hour to make sure you get on the fish. His full day trips usually run from 7am to 2-3pm which give you more time to hit both sides of the tide and find where the fish are biting best. But, Captain Kevin has years of experience under his belt and will take you where the bite is hottest. You can expect to target Flounder, Redfish, and Speckled Trout. Captain Kevin likes to use live bait, cut bait, and, on some occasions, lures to attract the best and biggest fish. If wade fishing is your preferred angling method, he will gladly take you out, you just need to provide your own waders and wading boots. For these trips, Captain Kevin likes to use a 23’ Haynie Bigfoot bay boat that provides a wide, spacious, and stable deck that will serve as your fishing platform. Captain Kevin likes to run these trips with two guests so that he can provide superior service so you both catch your limit or next personal best! Captain Kevin will provide everything you need for a productive day on the water, except a fishing license, which you’ll need to bring with you. He will have an icebox for your day’s catch as well as rods, reels, bait, and tackle. Come on down and make some memories with Captain Kevin and explore the secluded waters around Aransas Pass!
