There's a fish with your name on it in Port Aransas and Fillabite Guide Service will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Randy knows them forwards and back.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Redfish, and plenty more.

You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites!

You'll find yourself aboard a 23' Bay boat with capacity for 4 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

You might need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Fillabite Guide Service and get hooked!

Tough day on the water
Extended Full Day Trip on September 20, 20252 adults
Captain Randy had to work hard to find the fish today. No wind and water that looked like glass meant the Red bite was off. He finialy suggested we move to trout and we managed to limit out on trout with one lone red fish. The captain never gave up and we ended the trip with fish in the cooler and a great day on the water. I highly recommend Captian Randy Fillabite he will do his absolute best to get you on fish.

A wonderful day with a fantastic guide
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 15, 20252 adults
Randy was the best! A very knowlegable guide with a lifetime of fishing Aransas waters. Terrific bost that is very easy to fish out of. But put that all aside, Randy was all about making sure we all had a great time. Fun to talk to and be around. A very good kind man with a big heart.

Randy was a great guide and a pleasure to fish with. My wife and I both caught trout and redfish and got to mark that off our lists, plus we have some good meals at home to look forward to! Randy is fun, very knowledgeable and a great teacher. We absolutely enjoyed our morning and would do it again.

Caught our limit on Red Fish
Full Day Trip on September 8, 20252 adults
My son and I have used Captain Randy before. He is a knowledgeable Captain. He got us on our fish right away, and we caught our limit. Then we still had time to go look for some big ones. It was a great day and he made sure we got our fish.
