Artificial Action Guide Service
Artificial Action Guide Service operates out of Aransas Pass, TX, exploring the shallow flats and backcountry the area is famous for in search of Redfish and Speckled Trout. Head out for a great day of wade and drift fishing. Head home with some tasty fish and a ton of awesome memories!
You will be fishing aboard a 2020 23' Haynie flats boat, built right here in Texas and designed specifically for the area's endless shallows. Most trips focus on wade fishing, but you can also try drifting the flats if the conditions are right, and this boat is perfect for it.
Captain Larry Bell is dedicated to two things: providing great fishing trips and maintaining his beloved local fisheries. He is an artificials specialist who will take you to all his favorite fishing spots, using a variety of lures such as topwater plugs, soft plastics, and more to bring in big fish.
Captain Larry takes pride in promoting sustainable fishing methods and practices on all his trips. He encourages catch & release for fish you don't want to eat. Trouts can only be kept if they are between 17'-23', 3 per person. Any Trout over 23' and any Redfish over 24' must be released, as these are the most likely to breed.
At the end of your trip, the fish you keep will be cleaned and filleted, ready to enjoy as soon as you get home. All tackle and lures are provided. Just bring your waders, your food and drink, and any other personal items, and get ready for a day of fun sportfishing.

We had the best time with Larry. Not only is he patient and kind, he was truly a joy to spend the morning with on the water. He really knew what he was talking about when it came to getting on fish. If you’re looking for a guide who genuinely loves fishing and you want someone who’s willing to teach you, book with Larry. We will definitely be a repeat customer.
STOP! LOOKING! If you want to forget about the world around you and experience some of Gods country. With a personal guide. Hands down you found it.

Wade fishing with Captain Larry was the real deal! He taught us how fishing with artificial lures takes more skill, and we loved it because we were mobile, did the work ourselves, learned to use the gear, etc. and we caught a bunch of fish! Many of them keepers, and Larry cleaned them up for us. Great trip! Thanks, Captain Larry

Capt Bell put us on fish and we had a great time He loved my play calls as we caught fish :) Very educational especially if you want to throw Arti the way God intended. NO CHEATING WITH LIVE BAIT !!

Larry was super friendly and easy to communicate with about our trip. He made the fishing fun for my kids, and was very patient and laid back. We would definitely rebook with him! Thanks again Larry!

Captain Larry was awesome. He knows the area and took me to the spots with lots of action. I highly recommend booking with him. I definitely will again!
This was our first salt water trip using artifical lures and Captain Larry hoked us up. Put us on fish early and we caught fish pretty much all day. He is very knowledgeable and accommodating. Great guy to spend a day on the water with. Thank for all your help in letting my sons and I make some good memories.

We have been on guided fishing trips with more than 100 fishing guides so we are no novices when it comes to the game! What makes for a great day for me is pretty simple! I want a guide that will teach me what we are doing and why! I want a guide that clearly knows what they are doing! And, I want a guide that is at least pleasant to be in the boat with! Well, Captain Larry Bell checks all of those boxes and gets an A+ across the board! What a pleasant departure from some of the "old salts" that you can tell are just going through the motions. I totally recommend this gentleman and will be fishing with him again as soon as possible! Thanks Larry! You made my birthday extra special! PS ... that black drum was caught on the last cast of the day and Captain Larry was at least as excited as I was when we landed it if not more excited!!!

Captain Larry Bell was so helpful with his knowledge in fishing and catching techniques. He was a professional and had a very easiness vibe about him that allowed us to feel at ease. We caught plenty of fish but just short of keepers. The experience was great and I definitely look forward to coming back again to do more fishing with him. Thank you Captain Bell!

Had a great time on a full day trip with Captain Larry. Captain Larry was excellent at putting us on reds and trout while teaching us about picking the right spots and times to fish. I learned a ton that I can take home and use to be better on my hometown lake. The best part of the trip was how Captain Larry interacted with everyone on his boat. Ensuring he knew everyone's name and giving equal attention for all members of our party. My 5 year old even got to claim her own island aptly named P-shell Island (formerly piggy island). We all got to enjoy my daughter catching her first saltwater water fish, major proud dad moment. If you have kids this is the Captain for you. Incredibly patient and genuine with my daughter which was awesome for her first trip our on a boat of this size. Constantly working to make our experience memorable while being courteous, professional and personable. I cannot recommend Captain Larry highly enough. Looking forward to our next trip to hook another full day!

Capt Larry was such a blast to hang out with. Great attitude, equipment and absolutely knows his stuff! Ive fished quite a bit but never been wade fishing. He made it a fantastic experience and put me on the fish!!! We caught trout and reds!!! Would recommend 10/10!!! This wont be my last trip with him!

Captain was super relaxed, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip worth it. Id recommend this charter to anyone no matter what their experience level is.
