About Your Trip

Texas' Coastal Bend region is a fisherman's paradise, with abundant opportunities to catch Trout Redfish and Black Drum in the Bays, shallow backwater and marshes. On this charter fishing trip, guests can experience the thrill of reeling in these exciting and delicious fish, which are a blast to catch for any saltwater angler!

The trip will begin with a short boat ride through the waters off of Rockport, Texas. Captain Chase has put in his days on the water, and will put his expert knowledge to work to get you hooked up on some champion fish!

Once you're out on the water aboard Captain Chase's 22’ airboat, you'll have the chance to use a variety of techniques to catch the Redfish and Black Drum including sight casting with lures or bait and "soaking" cut shrimp or mullet on the bottom to create a commotion that will attract the fish. The shallow water makes for an exciting and challenging fishing experience, as the fish can be easily spooked and will require quick reflexes and a deft touch to catch.

After a day of fishing, guests will return to the dock with their catch, which can be cleaned and filleted by the captain. Go home with a trophy, a full cooler, and a camera full of lifelong memories!

About Your Guide

Chase O.

Independent Guide 13 years of exp.

Close your eyes and picture what an expert outdoorsman looks like. Someone mild-mannered, who doesn't have to brag about his prowess, but the kind of guy where it becomes apparent very quickly that he knows what the ducks are doing before they do and where the redfish are all day long, under any conditions. That man you just pictured is going to look a lot like Captain Chase here. He just flat-out gets it. Book...

Great time out there with Chase. Conditions were tough on the last weekend of the season with the tides going out and the weather heating up and Chase worked hard to mix up our spots and get us some birds. He even stayed out a little late with us to give us some extra opportunities to shoot. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to shoot some puddle ducks on the coast.
