Port Aransas has a fish with your name on it, so let Next Generation fishing charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Hunter knows them forwards and back.

These waters are known for Redfish, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Kingfish, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself! You’ll target your catch by light tackle fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

Your excursion begins aboard a 22’ Flats boat with a capacity for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. What’s more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Capt. Hunter has rods and reels for you. Live bait is available when needed.

Before coming aboard, it is required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in the group. Unless you are under 16, a license is not required. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are welcome! Children under 13 must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and a hat. Water is included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Next Generation fishing charters will make it easy for you to go fishing in Port Aransas. So, how about booking that trip?

    Awesome Experience

    Half Day Trip (AM) on October 8, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Had a great experience fishing with Captain Hunter who took me and my son out this morning. We caught a ton of fish (limited out on Reds then switched to Drum) but even we hadn’t my 11yr old would have still had a blast. We’ve been out on fishing charters before… they all allow kids and most will tolerate kids but this was first time where it felt like our guide was happy to have him, talked to him, explained / taught him a bunch of stuff, and made it really enjoyable. Next time we’re in town we wont look anywhere else. Family run operation and just good people all around. Thanks Hunter.

    Great trip and experience!

    Half Day Trip (PM) on September 26, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    When I booked this trip I let Hunter Kramer (Captain) know that I wasn't a good fisherman and that this trip was for my grandson's 14th birthday. It was me, my son, and grandson on the trip. Hunter made sure that my grandson got the best attention and was encouraging to him all the time! My grandson's smile said it all after the first keeper Red he caught! The fish we caught were filleted and cooked later that evening and they were awesome! I would recommend Hunter as a guide to anyone, especially if you have kids. He was great! Overall we caught eleven fish, mostly Reds!

    Excellent Trip, Hunter is a Awesome Guide

    Half Day Trip (PM) on October 11, 2026 • 2 adults

    Our trip was so much fun! Hunter was very knowledgeable and worked so hard to keep us on the fish. We almost got our limits on Red’s, the weather in the Gulf made fishing tougher. it was not for lack of trying, Hunter went above and beyond for us. This was my first time out and I really enjoyed it. My husband had been out before and said we will now be booking with Hunter from now on.

    Great experience!

    Half Day Trip (PM) on October 14, 2023 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We took our two young boys to fish and have a small sea burial. Captain Hunter was amazing with my very talkative 6 year old, he never acted annoyed or even bothered by the constant chatter. He was very patient with our family! I would absolutely recommend to others and will be back for sure.

    Great Experience

    Half Day Trip (PM) on October 21, 2023 • 3 adults

    Captain Hunter Kramer made our vacation end on a high note. He was very patient with my 84 year old father, he moved around until we found the fish, and his attitude was A+. I highly recommend Hunter, and he is my new fishing guide for life! Thank you Captain Hunter!!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on June 23, 2024 • 5 adults • 1 child

    My husband, brothers, and 5 year old son had a great time! Very knowledgeable captain and phenomenal communication skills. I was a little nervous booking a surprise trip for my husband but Captain Hunter kept in contact with me to make sure everything went smooth and did everything in his power to make sure they had a great trip. The boys can’t stop talking about how much they enjoyed fishing with captain hunter, my brother even booked two more trips already. Do not hesitate to book with this charter, you will not regret it!
