About Your Trip

If you're looking for an exciting day on the water, this Port Isabel bay fishing trip is the perfect choice! Set out to explore the legendary Laguna Madre, a hotspot for inshore fishing loaded with Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Snook, and Mangrove Snapper. Whether you're an experienced angler or new to the sport, your guide will have you on the fish using proven techniques like jigging, live bait fishing, and cut bait to get the bites rolling.

You'll be fishing from a 20’ South Bay bay boat, equipped with a live well, power pole, JL Audio sound system, deck lights, and a wash-down hose for a smooth and comfortable ride. Powered by a 150 HP Suzuki engine, this boat is built to handle the shallow flats and backwaters where big fish love to hide.

All rods, reels, tackle, and bait are provided, and your guide will also clean and fillet any keepers you bring in. Please note that a valid Texas fishing license is required and must be purchased before the trip. Be sure to bring your favorite snacks, drinks, sunscreen, and weather-appropriate clothing to stay comfortable throughout the day.

Get ready for an unforgettable inshore fishing adventure in Port Isabel—book your trip today and let's hit the water!

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip.

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.
