If you’re ready to have fun fishing in Port Aransas, look no further than Blue Rush Charters.

Marlin, Red Snapper, Cobia, Cubera Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Kingfish, Great Barracuda, Mahi Mahi, Redfish, Scamp Grouper, Lane Snapper, and more are in the cards, depending on the season. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Blue Rush Charters is a child-friendly charter service, so get ‘em offline and onto the water! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Don’t forget to bring snacks, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Water is included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation. Avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. It’s customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation. You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
