About Your Trip

Hit the water with Captain Jody and experience 8 hours of amazing inshore fishing!

Captain Jody - with his 35+ years of experience - will take you where the fish are biting. He will help you reel in Trout, Redfish, and Flounder, as well as Black Drum.

About Your Guide

Jody S.

Outfitter 40 years of exp.

Captain Jody offers Rockport fishing charters chasing Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more all year round. With over 35 years of experience, Captain Jody is a professional, knowledgeable, and personable guide who loves sharing his time on the water with others. If hog hunting is more your speed, Jody also offers trips to help clean up the invasive hog problem in Texas.

Fish aboard Captain Jody's brand new 2019 25’ Haynie bay boat, complete with the latest marine electronics and safety gear, a 350 HP Mercury engine, a wireless trolling motor, and a live well for bait. The boat also has 2 onboard coolers, one for your refreshments and one for the catch, and can accommodate up to 4 anglers fishing at once.

Captain Jody will supply top-notch equipment (he mostly uses Falcon), and he's happy to fish with artificial lures and/or live bait.

The run to the grounds is never a long one, and you'll be casting to Speckled Trout, Redfish, Flounder, and Black Drum in no time.

After your trip, Captain Jody will clean and fillet your catch. Just purchase your Texas saltwater fishing licenses online beforehand, bring a few drinks and snacks, and you're all set for a great day out of Rockport, Texas!

If you'd rather be hunting hogs, Jody runs full-service hog hunting trips inland near Encinal.

Fill in date, party size, trip duration, and start time above to book and get out there with Captain Jody and Captain Experiences!
