Come to Port Aransas, Texas, and visit Captain James Regini Fishing Guide Service for a relaxing and fun fishing trip! Captain James is a cordial and skilled angler who’ll see that you have a great time on the water and return home with a respectable catch. Join him on the inshore waters around Port Aransas and have a memorable fishing experience you’ll certainly wish to relive!

You’ll fish from a 24’ El Pescador bay boat that can sit up to 4 anglers and runs on a 250 Evinrude engine. It uses modern GPS technology as well as a radar for effective navigation and is equipped with a livewell to supply you with live bait.

The species you can target include Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Sheepshead, and Redfish. You and Captain James will try to catch them using light tackle and you’re free to keep all the fish you catch and take them home.

All the rods, reels, terminal tackle, live bait, and lures will be ready for you when you arrive, and the captain will also clean and fillet your catch if you want him to. What you should bring on your trip are only your fishing licenses and the food and drinks of your choice.

Come to Port Aransas and enjoy a lovely day fishing together with Captain James Regini!

Half Day - Bay Trip (AM)

Fantastic Fishing Trip with a Unique Twist

VERIFIED

I recently went on a guided fishing trip and had an absolutely incredible experience. The captain was not only extremely professional, but also brought a refreshing, non-traditional approach to the trip. If you've ever been on a typical charter before, you'll truly appreciate the difference — this was anything but routine. What stood out most was how hard the captain worked to ensure our trip was a success. He clearly knew the waters well and had a real talent for finding the fish. Every move felt intentional, and it paid off with a great catch and an unforgettable day on the water. The energy, creativity, and dedication made this one of the best fishing trips I've been on. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone looking for something beyond the usual — and I'll absolutely be booking again.

We took our 5 & 8 year olds and James did better than I could have ever expected. He helped and coached them on fishing and helped them getting them reeled in. We filled the coolers over the top with fish and had the times of our life! Highly recommend!!!

James was professional and very knowledgeable about where the fish would be and what to expect from the trip. He was communicative, punctual and he did a great job hosting us on his boat and helping us catch some amazing keepers.

Great Captain.

We had an amazing time on our guided fishing tour! James was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and hardworking. He went above and beyond to make sure we found fish, and he took the time to teach my 9-year-old son the proper way to hold rod when fishing in these waters and things to look for when locating fish. We highly recommend James to anyone and can’t wait to book with him again in the future!
