You can rest assured your inshore or offshore trip will be safe and professional, and Captain Collin will be sure to point out other marine species you come across while chasing Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Sheepshead, and more.

Captain Collin regularly fishes West Matagorda Bay, Espiritu Santo Bay, and San Antonio Bay. All rods, reels, bait & terminal tackle are provided, as well as all fuel, ice, bottled water, fish cleaning and bagging, and a cooler for your drinks and snacks.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
