About Your Trip

Climb aboard with Captain Kevin and get ready for an action-packed day of fishing in Corpus Christi, Texas!

If you don’t like waking up early in the morning, this trip is for you. You’ll head out on the water early-mid afternoon and fish until the sun starts to set (4-5 hours after you head out). The ride back to the dock is beautiful.

On your trip, you can expect to explore the South Texas coast
anywhere from Copano Bay down to the Laguna Madre depending on fish trends, weather, and your personal preference.

To Kevin, fishing isn't just his job, it's his passion and his lifestyle. He likes all kinds of fishing and is willing to cater your afternoon to what you're looking for. You can chase big Trout, Redfish, and Flounder in the bay, or fish nearshore, when weather permits. Throw artificials, live bait, cut bait, or flyfish. You can even try out multiple different techniques and see which one works best for you.

Captain Kevin uses a 24’ Blazer Bay boat that accommodates up to 6 anglers. She features a wireless trolling motor, which won’t scare those easily spooked fish, a fishfinder, and a live bait well.

Make sure you bring a valid Texas fishing license, some snacks, and an ice chest for your day’s catch. Captain Kevin will provide the rest - rods, reels, lures, live bait, and bottled water to keep you hydrated.

Enjoy your day out on the water with Captain Kevin!

My brother and I took a 4 hr trip for redfish and sea trout. Fishing was slow and catching was slower yet. We did catch enough for a couple of meals. Captain Kevin had good equipment, a clean comfortable boat and gave us 100% effort. Beautiful weather too.
