Deep Sea fishing is the most popular type of fishing for yellowfin tuna in Texas as well as nearshore fishing.

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

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.

    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.

  • ★★★★★
    The captain and deck mate were excellent. Took two boys out for their first off shore trip and they are still talking about how much fun they had. I highly recommend this guide definitely worth the price.

    Trip: South Padre Island Deep Sea

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Dan and his crew are great. If you choose any other charter to fish with you are missing out. They will work hard to get you on the fish and take care of you. Give them a shot you won’t be disappointed.
