Get'm Hook'd Fishing Charters
Team up with Get’m Hook’d Fishing Charters and experience the joys of fishing in this part of Texas. Captain Arturo Calderas has more than 25 years of fishing experience under his belt and will do his best to ensure you have an unforgettable angling adventure in South Padre Island. Whether you’re an expert or someone just starting out in the awesome world of fishing, he’s got your back.
You’ll be fishing from his 25’ Majek bay boat that runs on a 300 HP Suzuki engine. There’s enough room here for up to 6 guests, so bring a few friends along and come aboard. The boat has all the necessary safety gear and navigational electronics to ensure a safe and productive day on the water.
When it comes to the fishing itself, you’re in for a fun time exploring these Texan inshore waters and flats. Your trip starts with a 15–20 minute boat ride to the fishing spots, allowing you to also do a bit of sightseeing of the local islands. When you start fishing you’ll be targeting Trout and Redfish for the most part, but there’s also Sheepshead, Flounder, Black Drum, and others out there.
All the necessary rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the trip price. There’s also some water and soda on the boat, but you’re more than welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks. Other things you should bring include polarized sunglasses and sunscreen for the best possible experience. Come on down and get ready to catch some fish!

We booked an 8 hour trip with Captin Arturo Calderas with Get'm Hooked Fishing Charters. It was our first time doing a trip like this because we are from Colorado. My son and I are just used to regular fishing at lakes and ponds. So Visiting South Padre Island and getting this trip marked off our bucket list was an awesome experience and Also it was his birthday gift he requested. Our captain took extra care of my son and put on us on some really good hot spots, we cought a total of 20 fish and my son cooight 16 and I cought 4. My son was so excited and that's all that mattered to me thanks to our Captain he was very knowledgeable of the area and made this experience one not to forget, Thank you Get'm hooked/ Arturo Calderas.

Kansas boy kicks butt
The captain and I had communicated about my style of fishing and how I preferred to fish if possible and Arturo came through. We started out chasing birds and casting for speckled trout and i caught them for 2 hours straight! We switched to live bait to go for a big speck and i nailed it! Right under 20inches for my limit of specks. We switched to red fish and Arturo got me onto a big red fish immediately! I enjoyed myself and will be using Arturo again and i suggest you do to! Friendly, professional and most importantly caught fish! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

Caught a trout on my first cast and it was on from there! Our family group of 4 reeled in over 30 fish. We had 10 sea trout keepers in 2 hours with 3 hours to go! GREAT time! He kept us on the fish all day. We tried for red fish for an hour, had no luck but still caught fish. Tried a different technique on sea trout and caught our limit with time to spare. Great captain. Helped us, explained things clearly and was calm the whole time! Thanks Arturo!

Captain Aurturo is the best. Put us consistently on top of reds and drums. Knows the bay well and all the local clubs and restaurants. Even had our catch cleaned and cooked for us. What an adventure. A PLUS/5 STAR all day.

Excellent catching day.
Went out with Captain Ryan, the spot he took us to was awesome, anytime my son or I put a hook in the water, just that fast we were reeling in a fish. Caught our limit on trout by 8:30, then stayed there and started catching flounder and reds.
