Fins & Pins Coastal Guide Service will take you out on the best saltwater fishing trips in the Texan waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Captain Trey Clement has been fishing all his life, and he’s very passionate about showing his customers all the best fishing spots in the area. You can be sure that he’ll maximize your time on the water.

His 24’ Mako bay boat can accommodate up to 6 people, out of which 4 can fish at the same time when drifting and casting. The boat is powered by a 250 HP Mercury engine, and it can get you to the honey holes in no time! There’s an icebox and a live bait tank that you can use on board.

Explore these beautiful shallow waters in search of some of the most prized inshore species in the area – Redfish, Trout, Flounder, and Black Drum. Live bait will be prepared for you in advance at an additional cost, as well as rods, reels, and tackle.

Depending on the conditions and the wind, you’ll either be drifting or bottom fishing. If you’d like to keep your catch, there’s a cleaning service at 40 cents per pound. Make this an exciting family adventure by bringing your kids with you, and make some great new memories!

Don’t forget to bring sun protection, some snacks, and drinks in order for your trip to be enjoyable. Pack some lunch as well on the full day trip. There’s plenty of storage on board, so you can bring whatever you need.

Come join Fins & Pins Coastal Guide Service and explore the beautiful inshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico!

Absolutely 5 stars! We booked a last-minute bay fishing trip with a days’ notice and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Our guide's passion and deep knowledge of fishing really stood out—he knew exactly where to go and what to use to get us on the fish. His enthusiasm was contagious and made the day even more enjoyable. Thanks to his expertise, we had a fantastic time on the water and brought home some great catches. Highly recommend!
