Start your Texas inshore adventure with Bay Finatic. Capt. Joe Guerra, Xavier Guerra, and Ricky Agado run trips out of Matagorda Bay, TX, and we are all USCG-licensed and certified. We've been fishing this area for over 15 years, and we are on the water year-round.

We welcome you aboard his 2021 24’ Haynie Cat boat. Our bay boats are top of the line and can reach a good speed and get you to any fishing spot in no time. The boats accommodate up to 4 guests.

Your main targets will be the Big Three – Speckled Trout, Redfish, and Flounder. But the fun doesn’t end there. In these waters, you can also find Black Drum and Sheepshead, depending on the season and fishing grounds you visit. Capt. Joe mainly uses drift fishing, structure, and reef fishing techniques with popping CorkS. If you want to enjoy your catch to the fullest and take some fresh fillets with you, the captain will clean it for you after the trip.

Your rods, reels, and fishing tackle are fully covered by the captain. Live bait is extra charged if you want to use it. But using live bait is the best way to catch fish and is highly recommended! These trips are great for kids or guests who aren’t used to boats. You’re required to purchase a fishing license in Texas, so make sure to do it before the trip.

Bay Fanatic Fishing Charters is now offering night flounder gigging trips by Capt. Joe. On this trip, you will see amazing wildlife and all that nature has to offer.

Our Flounder boat is powered by a 140 HP Suzuki motor, a 460 cc push fan motor, top-of-the-line flounder lights that gradually adjust, and lamination that ranges from warm amber to cool white to increase visibility in clear or muddy water. You will be able to gig flounder, black drum, and sheepshead. The boat accommodates up to 3 guests. If you have a 4th person, please speak to the captain.
