Highlights of Bay Fishing Adventure

The 6:30 AM departure time takes advantage of cooler morning conditions and active feeding periods.
Captain Steven's expertise in reading local conditions, from partly cloudy skies to potential weather changes, ensures safe and productive trips. The 5-hour duration provides ample time to work multiple spots and adapt techniques based on fish activity and tidal movements.
Local Species Insights: Speckled Trout
Speckled trout thrive in South Padre Island's bay systems, particularly around grass flats, drop-offs, and structure where they ambush prey. These fish respond well to live bait presentations and light tackle techniques, making them ideal targets for our morning charters. During June, speckled trout are active in the early morning hours, feeding aggressively before the day heats up. The 16-inch fish we consistently land represent healthy, mature specimens that provide excellent sport on light tackle while contributing to the sustainable fishery.
