About Your Trip

Wake up bright and early with Captain John and explore the waters surrounding Rockport, Texas!

On this 4-hour action-packed adventure, Captain John will help you target a variety of species, including the “Texas Big Three” (Flounder, Redfish, Speckled Trout / Spotted Seatrout), Black Drum, and Sheepshead. Listen closely to Captain John’s advice - he knows where the fish bite!

You’ll be fishing aboard his 22-foot center console boat equipped with one 225 HP engine. She can accommodate 4 anglers and has both a fishfinder and a live bait well on board. This boat is extremely fast, reaching a speed of almost 52 knots. You’ll get to your fishing destination in no time.

Make sure you bring food and drinks for the day, a hat, sunscreen, and a valid Texas saltwater fishing license. Captain John will provide all rods, reels, and tackle, although you are welcome to bring your own. He also provides live bait at no extra cost and will clean and package your fish for you at the end of your trip.

If you want to go fly fishing, let Captain John know and he will be more than happy to accommodate. He will provide all the equipment.

Come on down to Rockport and embark on a fishing adventure to remember with Captain John!

This was a great trip. Maybe we didn’t catch a lot but it wasn’t for lack of trying by the captain. Wonderful job, we had a blast

Unfortunately the fishing part wasn’t successful but not for a lack of captain John trying everything to put us on fish. He was a blast to talk with and we still had a great time even though the fish weren’t cooperative. Would definitely go out with captain John in future
