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

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

How much do Texas mahi mahi 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.

    Trip: Captain Daniel's Fish Frenzy

  • ★★★★★
    I feel I may have screwed up not deciding to go to the shallows for sharks and reds but that would mean we would have missed Jennifer and Regie fighting the big black tip shark. So I call it a win win for everybody

    Trip: Federally Permitted Deep Sea

  • ★★★★★
    Had a good trip. Water was a little rough, but what can you do. Caught plenty of fish with three keeper snappers. Trolled back to the marina and hit two Jack Crevale’s. What a fight they put up. Next time I am thinking of trolling the entire trip! Emilio & Logan were great.
