Hit the water in the afternoon (around 4pm) with Captain Jeff for a full blown dusk assault on the Texas Big 3. These twilight trips are great because you can escape that mid day heat. I'm not gonna say its going to be cool (especially in the summer time) but atleast it will be cooler than fishing around mid day!

About Your Trip

Hit the water in the afternoon (around 4pm) with Captain Jeff for a full blown dusk assault on the Texas Big 3. These twilight trips are great because you can escape that mid day heat. I'm not gonna say its going to be cool (especially in the summer time) but atleast it will be cooler than fishing around mid day!

Depending on the time of year and fishing conditions, your charter will be in Estes
Flats, Aransas Bay, Red Fish Bay, Aransas Bay, and possibly over in the Laguna Madre and the Gulf Surf.

When Captain Jeff launches out of the Redfish Camp Boat Ramp in Aransas pass he is primarily targeting the limits of Red Fish and big Trout in popping corks through the bays, sight fishing the shallows, or drifting shell bottoms.

You will target four fish in particular: Red Fish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Black Drum. Depending on the time of year, one may be biting stronger than the others and Captain Jeff will let you know which one that is when you book the trip.

Captain Jeff has been fishing Texas' Coastal Bend region his whole life. He's happy to accommodate anglers of all skill levels. When the weather gets cold in the winter time, you can catch Jeff in the duck blind for morning hunts, but he's always down to fish with you afterward!

Great trip out with Captain Jeff.
He was great with the kids and his top concern was the safety of his passengers.
Once we shoved off he took us right to the fish!
Caught a nice Red less than a minute after the bait hit the water, and the action continued on after that.
I highly recommend Jeff!

Jeff is very pleasant and easy to be with. He made a tough fishing day fun and tried hard to find the fish. No hesitation in giving him 5 stars and a good recommendation for a great experience.

We all collectively appreciate your over and above customer service. Three novice fishermen, one teenager, one middle aged father and one old fart grandfather and you were equally attentive to all three of us in our own language. I am particularly happy with the way you took my grandson under your arm. Correcting him when he needed correcting, teaching him when he needed teaching. It was a good trip.
We will be back to see you.

He has a quality that helps with teaching important fishing techniques without making the fisherman feel ignorant. We will definitely use the services of Captain Jeff in the future!

We had a fantastic day on the water, Captain Jeff did a wonderful job. He was very professional; his boat and equipment met the requirements of the day. He was knowledgeable of the area and answered our questions with clear concise answers. He cleaned the fish we caught to our satisfaction. I would use him again and recommend him to others.
