About Your Trip

Climb aboard with Captain Heath and learn why Port A is one of the best fisheries on the Texas coast.

On these half or full day trips Captain Heath will help you hook into Redfish, Flounder, and Speckled Trout. Captain Heath will let you choose how you want to fish. You can choose between light tackle, wading, artificial lures, or drift fishing. If you choose to wade fish, make sure you bring waders and wading boots.

For these trips, you'll climb aboard Captain Heath's 24’ TransCat which can accommodate up to 4 anglers.

Make sure to bring a valid Texas Fishing License, a hat, sunscreen, and any food and drinks of your choice (no glass). Captain Heath will provide all rods, reels, and tackle. You can purchase live bait for an additional price.

Learn to fish new techniques and create lasting memories on the water while reeling in your personal best with Captain Heath!

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.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
