What types of sheepshead fishing charters are common in Texas?

Inshore fishing is the most popular type of fishing for sheepshead in Texas as well as jetty fishing, flats fishing, and nearshore fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Texas are light tackle fishing, live bait fishing, and artificial lure fishing but drift fishing and bottom fishing are popular as well.

How much do Texas sheepshead fishing charters cost?

Prices for sheepshead in Texas can range anywhere from about $550 to $1,750, but the average price for a half day trip for sheepshead in Texas is $873. The average price for a full day trip for sheepshead in Texas is $1,122.

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 sheepshead fishing in Texas?

The most popular season for sheepshead fishing in Texas is summer, and most anglers book their trips 15 days in advance.

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

    Got out with Mitch for a buddy's bachelor party and had an absolute blast! Some of the guys hadn't fished in a while (or at all) but Mitch was super patient in showing them the ropes. Mitch fishes super high quality tackle, had plenty of bait, and the boat was running smooth. We ripped it to a number of spots from surf fishing outside the jetties to countless inshore spots. We missed a few bites but had an awesome time, thanks Mitch! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences
