For a relaxing and fun bay fishing trip in southern waters, go to Henry’s Charters. Visit South Padre Island in Texas and join Captain Henry Rodriguez in exploring many spots rich with fish.

You’ll fish on a restored 30’ center console powered by twin 300 HP Mercury Verado engines. It’s got a full onboard navigation system and can accommodate up to 6 guests. It features a private toilet and an ice-box and is rigged with spearfishing and snorkeling equipment and a livewell. For an even better fishing experience, a first mate will be present on board.

The fish that you’ll encounter on these trips include Snapper, Redfish, California Corbina, Amberjack, King Mackerel, Black Drum, and many more. Captain Henry uses both light and heavy tackle and will show you how to bottom fish and spin. He’ll let you keep all the fish you catch. You can also bring kids with you and have a great time together.

Henry’s Charters provides you with all the rods, reels, terminal tackle, live bait, and lures. For a small fee, the crew will clean and fillet your catch. Pack some food and drinks if you want, bring your fishing licenses, and you’re ready to hunt.

See the beauty of South Padre Island and explore its exciting waters with Henry’s Charters.

I highly recommend Henry's Charters. We had a fantastic time during our 4-hour tour. The boat was in great condition and was a perfect size for our crew (3 adults and two kids aged 6 and 7). Henry and his first mate were accommodating, helpful and very professional. We found a hot spot and hit our limit and it's a memory the kids will cherish the rest of their lives. This was the first fishing trip for most of the folks in our crew and the bar has been set pretty high. i'd definitely book with Henry again.

Henry was an amazing captain. He took use to great spots, explained how to use the equipment properly, and gave us great tips along the way to help us have a better chance of catching fish. He also made sure we always had bait and even jumped in to help when necessary. Henry goes above and beyond and I will definitely be asking for him when I come back.

This is by far the best fishing trip I've had. A friend and I caught our first Kingfish was amazing, and this is two of my friends first time fishing. So a great first impression to them. Captain Henry is a very helpful and chill guy to take you fishing on his boat. His son was also very helpful and a chill guy to talk to. Definitely going again here in a few months.
