Full Day Redfish & Trout Bonanza in Port A

Ready to get your line wet in some of the best inshore fishing waters Texas has to offer? Hop aboard with Aggie Guide Service for a full day of chasing redfish and sea trout in the rich waters around Port Aransas. We're talking eight solid hours of fishing or until you hit your limit – whichever comes first. Whether you're itching to land that trophy red or just want to fill the cooler with some tasty trout, we've got you covered. And hey, we keep things simple – bring cash for the balance, and let's focus on what really matters: putting you on the fish.

What to Expect on the Water

Picture this: You're gliding through the shallows of Port A's legendary flats, the sun's barely up, and there's a tailing redfish just begging to be caught. That's the kind of day we're talking about. Our bay boat is perfect for navigating the mix of shorelines, skinny water, and structure that make this area a fish magnet. And for those spots where even a shallow draft won't cut it? We'll break out the airboat and zip across water so shallow you could practically walk on it. It's all about access to those honey holes where the big ones hide. We can take up to five anglers, so bring your buddies or the family – there's plenty of action to go around.

Fishing Tactics & Terrain

We don't just fish here; we hunt fish. Depending on the conditions and where the bite's hot, we might be sight-casting to reds in gin-clear shallows, working topwater lures for aggressive trout, or soaking bait near oyster reefs. Our local knowledge means we know which tactics are firing on any given day. We'll rig you up with the right gear – whether it's light tackle for finesse fishing or heavier setups when the bulls are running. And if you're up for it, we'll even get you wading in some prime spots. There's nothing like feeling the soft bottom under your feet as you work a grass line for that monster trout.

Top Catches This Season

The fishing's been on fire lately, with anglers pulling in some real beauties. We've seen redfish pushing 40 inches and trout topping 7 pounds coming over the gunwales. One group last week limited out on both species before lunch – now that's what we call a good morning! The bite's been particularly hot around the back bays, with soft plastics and live bait both producing consistently. Remember, it's not just about the size – a box full of keeper trout makes for some mighty fine eating too.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Redfish: These copper-colored bruisers are the rock stars of Texas inshore fishing. Known for their powerful runs and that distinctive black spot on their tail, redfish can range from rat reds of a couple pounds to bull reds pushing 40 inches or more. They love to cruise the shallows, often revealing their location with their trademark 'tailing' behavior. In the cooler months, you might find them schooling up in huge numbers – that's when the action gets really wild. Redfish put up a great fight and are excellent table fare, making them a favorite target for anglers of all skill levels.

Sea Trout (Speckled Trout): Don't let the name fool you – these aren't your average trout. Speckled trout are saltwater predators that can grow to impressive sizes, with gator trout (over 5 pounds) being the holy grail for many anglers. They're known for their delicate mouths and explosive strikes, especially when hitting topwater lures at dawn. Trout tend to move with the tides and bait, so finding them can be like solving a puzzle – but that's half the fun. When you do locate a school, the action can be non-stop. And let's not forget, they're absolutely delicious when grilled fresh off the boat.

Time to Book Your Spot

Look, the fish are biting, and the weather's prime – there's no better time to get out on the water. Whether you're a seasoned angler looking to tangle with some big reds or a family wanting to make some memories (and dinner), we've got the trip for you. Remember, we provide all the gear and know-how; you just need to bring your sense of adventure and maybe a lucky hat. Don't wait until the hotspots are all booked up – give us a call and let's get your Port Aransas fishing adventure on the calendar. Trust me, the only thing you'll regret is not doing it sooner. So what do you say? Ready to feel that tug on the line?

Redfish

Redfish are the rock stars of Texas inshore fishing. These copper-colored beauties with the signature tail spot love cruising our shallow flats and marshes. Most run 20-30 inches, but trophy "bulls" over 40 inches aren't uncommon. Look for them tailing in water barely deep enough to cover their backs, especially around oyster reefs and grassy areas. Fall is prime time when they school up to spawn. Redfish put up a stubborn, powerful fight and are prized for their sweet, firm meat. To catch 'em, try sight-casting with gold spoons or scented soft plastics. My favorite trick is to use a weedless gold spoon and let it flutter down right in front of a cruising red - they can rarely resist. Just remember to set the hook hard, as their mouths are tough. Whether you're chasing slots or trophy bulls, redfish never disappoint.

Sea Trout

Sea trout are a blast to catch around Port Aransas. These silver-sided fighters typically run 14-24 inches and put up a great scrap on light tackle. You'll find them hanging around grass flats and shallow waters, especially at night. They love to chase shrimp, small crabs, and baitfish. Fall and spring are prime seasons when the water temps are just right. Folks enjoy targeting sea trout for their sporty nature and tasty, flaky white meat. Just be careful not to overcook it or it'll get mushy. Pro tip: try using soft plastic shrimp imitations or topwater plugs early in the morning for some exciting strikes. Sea trout can be finicky, so matching your lure to what they're feeding on is key. Whether you're wading the flats or drifting from the boat, hooking into a nice speckled trout is always a treat.
