6 Hour Red Snapper Trip W/AC!
If a line-peeling, drag-screaming offshore trip is what you're after, you're in the right place! Captain Scott is a pro when it comes to offshore fishing in Port Aransas, Texas, and he loves to show clients what's out there in the deep blue. On an offshore charter with Captain Scott, you'll hunt down a variety of sportfish species, including Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, and Wahoo—all terrific fighting fish that are great to eat as well. Because these fish love to hit fast-moving lures and bait, you'll focus on trolling at different depths in order to attract bites. When a big Mahi or Wahoo takes the hook, strap in for a fight! These are lightning-fast pelagic fish that do not want to get caught, and getting one over the rail is a challenge. You'll fight the fish from Captain Scott's 42' Hatteras sportfisher, a perfect vessel for offshore fishing. She features a comfortable cabin when you want to get out of the sun, plus a big deck with tons of room for reeling in a trophy! Captain Scott will provide everything you need for an epic trip, including rods, reels, baits, and tackle.

What is wahoo fishing in Corpus Christi all about?
Wahoo, known for their impressive speed and powerful strikes, are a prized species among anglers in Corpus Christi. These sleek and agile fish are often found in offshore waters, particularly around deep reefs, oil rigs, and underwater structures. Wahoo are highly valued for their delicious flesh and are considered one of the fastest and most formidable predators in the ocean. Anglers targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi can expect thrilling battles and exciting fishing experiences.
In Corpus Christi, anglers typically target wahoo using trolling techniques. High-speed trolling with artificial lures such as skirts, plugs, or rigged baits is a common method employed to entice strikes from wahoo. Anglers often troll along underwater contours, current edges, or around offshore structures where wahoo are known to hunt for prey. Adjusting trolling speed and lure depth based on water temperature, current, and other factors can increase the chances of success when targeting these fast-moving predators.
Furthermore, wahoo fishing in Corpus Christi is often associated with certain seasons and weather patterns. While wahoo can be encountered year-round, they are more prevalent during the warmer months of late spring, summer, and early fall when water temperatures are higher. During these times, wahoo may congregate in larger numbers around offshore structures and near the surface, providing anglers with increased opportunities for success. Anglers interested in targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi should pay attention to local fishing reports, weather conditions, and offshore currents to maximize their chances of encountering these prized fish.
What are the most popular months to fish for wahoo fishing in Corpus Christi?
In Corpus Christi, the wahoo season is primarily dictated by seasonal shifts in water temperature and offshore conditions. While wahoo can be encountered in the waters off Corpus Christi throughout the year, they are typically more prevalent and active during certain seasons. Generally, the peak season for targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi occurs during the warmer months of late spring, summer, and early fall. During these times, the water temperatures rise, prompting increased activity among wahoo as they hunt for prey in offshore waters.
The warmer months coincide with the migration of baitfish and other prey species, which attracts wahoo to the offshore waters near Corpus Christi. Additionally, the Gulf Stream may push closer to the coast during these months, bringing warmer water and favorable conditions for wahoo fishing. Anglers targeting wahoo during the peak season often focus their efforts around underwater structures such as reefs, oil rigs, and drop-offs, where wahoo are known to congregate in search of prey.
While wahoo fishing in Corpus Christi can be productive during the warmer months, anglers may still encounter wahoo during other times of the year, particularly during periods of mild weather and stable offshore conditions. However, anglers should be mindful of factors such as water temperature, currents, and baitfish activity, which can impact the likelihood of encountering wahoo. By paying attention to seasonal trends and offshore conditions, anglers in Corpus Christi can maximize their chances of success when targeting these prized gamefish.
What techniques are popular for catching wahoo in Corpus Christi?
When it comes to targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi, anglers typically rely on high-speed trolling techniques to entice strikes from these fast-moving predators. High-speed trolling involves pulling artificial lures, such as skirts, plugs, or rigged baits, at speeds of 10 to 15 knots or more. Anglers often troll along underwater contours, current edges, or around offshore structures where wahoo are known to hunt for prey. Adjusting trolling speed and lure depth based on water temperature, current, and other factors can increase the chances of success when targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi's offshore waters.
Another effective technique for wahoo fishing in Corpus Christi is using spreader bars or daisy chains. These setups consist of multiple lures rigged in a way that mimics a school of baitfish swimming together. The action of the lures combined with the commotion created by the spreader bars can attract the attention of wahoo from a distance, increasing the likelihood of a strike. Anglers often deploy spreader bars behind the boat while trolling at high speeds, covering a larger area of water and increasing their chances of encountering wahoo.
Furthermore, anglers targeting wahoo in Corpus Christi may also employ tactics such as deep-drop fishing or live bait trolling. Deep-drop fishing involves deploying weighted rigs with bait to depths where wahoo are known to inhabit, typically targeting areas with steep drop-offs or underwater structures. Live bait trolling involves using live baitfish, such as blue runners or bonito, rigged with circle hooks and trolled behind the boat. These techniques can be effective for targeting wahoo, particularly when fishing in areas with strong currents or deep water. By employing a combination of high-speed trolling, spreader bars, and other techniques, anglers in Corpus Christi can increase their chances of success when targeting these elusive and fast-moving predators.
What other species are popular in Corpus Christi?
Aside from targeting wahoo, anglers in Corpus Christi have a diverse range of other species to pursue, offering a variety of exciting fishing experiences. One popular catch in the area is the king mackerel, also known as kingfish, prized for its fast-paced runs and powerful fighting ability. King mackerel are typically found in nearshore and offshore waters, often congregating around bait-rich areas such as reefs, oil rigs, and channels. Anglers commonly employ trolling techniques with live bait or artificial lures to target kingfish, with fishing success often dependent on factors such as water temperature, current, and baitfish availability.
Another sought-after species in Corpus Christi is the red snapper, prized for its firm white flesh and sweet flavor. Red snapper are commonly found in offshore waters, particularly around reefs, wrecks, and other underwater structures. Anglers often use live bait or cut bait presented on the bottom to entice strikes from these prized gamefish, with fishing techniques varying based on the season and location.
Furthermore, Corpus Christi offers opportunities to target species such as dorado (also known as mahi-mahi), grouper, and amberjack. Dorado are commonly found in offshore waters, particularly around weed lines, debris, and floating objects where they feed on small fish and crustaceans. Grouper are often found around offshore reefs and wrecks, where they can be targeted using live bait or artificial lures bounced along the bottom. Amberjack, known for their brute strength and powerful runs, are often found near offshore structure such as oil rigs and wrecks, where they feed on baitfish and squid. With such a diverse range of species to pursue, anglers exploring the waters of Corpus Christi are sure to find an exciting fishing adventure awaiting them.
