About Your Trip

Step into the shallows for a wild nighttime adventure with Captain Casey, where the flats come alive under the glow of the gigging lights!

Flounder gigging is unlike any other fishing trip—it’s quiet, thrilling, and downright addictive. As the sun sets and the water calms, you’ll glide across the flats and inshore waters near Aransas Pass on a custom 20’ airboat built to run super shallow. With powerful lights illuminating the bottom, you'll spot flounder as they lie camouflaged in the sand—then it’s time to strike!

This 6-hour trip is perfect for groups of 1 to 4 people, allowing the boat to access the skinniest water where flounder like to hide. Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned gigger, Captain Casey will walk you through everything you need to know. All the gear is provided, and your catch will be cleaned and bagged at the end of the night.

No sunburns, no crowds—just cool coastal air, the sound of water under the hull, and the flash of flounder in the lights. You’re welcome to bring your own drinks (no glass, please), play your favorite music over Bluetooth, and soak in a one-of-a-kind experience you won’t soon forget.

Departures are flexible from the Rockport or Port Aransas area. If you’re ready for something different—and seriously fun—this gigging trip with Captain Casey is the way to go.

How did you get started guiding?
Loved to fish as a kid so it was second nature to get my captains licenses. I love to see my customer's eyes light up when catching fish. LOL it's not a job when you love to do it,
What makes you different from other guides?
I enjoy life and my work. More than once, I have given free trips because the fishing wasn't very good.
