Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for kingfish in Texas as well as nearshore fishing, jetty fishing, and inshore fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Texas are bottom fishing, trolling, and heavy tackle fishing but light tackle fishing and jigging are popular as well.

How much do Texas kingfish fishing charters cost?

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for kingfish fishing in Texas?

The most popular season for kingfish fishing in Texas is summer, and most anglers book their trips 23 days in advance.

Do I need a Texas fishing license for kingfish and what are the bag limits for kingfish in Texas?

    Had a blast! Would book this again in a heartbeat. They knew wear to go and how to help us novices figure out how to fish properly.

    Had an amazing time with Rodney today. He was very professional and put us on a good variety of fish. Lost a good Marlin after about an hour long fight. It was an enjoyable time and looking forward to go back out with him in the future. I would recommend Rodney to anyone!!!

    Trip: 10 Hour Offshore Expedition

  • ★★★★★
    My family of 6 (3 teens,3 adults) booked a 6 hour deep sea fishing trip with Todd and Fernando. They were very knowledgeable and so helpful considering we had zero experience with deep sea fishing and half of us were a little sea sick. My husband and I had an amazing time. Todd knew just where you take us to get the fish and if it was a miss he'd move us along to the next spot . Fernando was so hard working and helpful with myself and the kids. I never once had to bait a hook or remove a fish. He was patient with my family and thoroughly explained how to manovour the reel and exactly what to do. There was a bathroom and air conditioned room if needed. I'd definitely book again.
