Launch with Captain Payton to explore the waters around Padre Island and Corpus Christi. These waters are home to all kinds of inshore denizens but you can expect to target the Texas "Big Three", Redfish, Trout, and Flounder. You’ll mainly use light tackle to the bays for these fun and delicious fish, but depending on the day, weather, and tides, Captain Payton may have a secret method to show you for hooking into them!

Great trip. Captain Payton was great and taught us a lot. Fish were not really biting, but we got a few Speckled Trout, a hardhead and one big 41” Bull Red Drum. Captain worked hard and took us to numerous spots, but finally the kids wore out and we came ...Read More
