Come spend the day with Penn Coastal Fishing Guide Services and see what’s biting in Port Aransas! With Captain Jodie Penn at the helm, you’re in knowledgeable and experienced hands. Captain Jodie has been fishing these waters almost daily since 2015.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Redfish, Black Drum, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Sheepshead, and anything else that bites. The captain typically uses bait and/or lures depending on the species and conditions.
If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Adult life jackets will be provided. Also, remember to bring snacks and drinks as the charter has a 75-quart cooler for customer use.
You’ll be casting lines from a 23’ Majek M2 Illusion with a capacity for 5 passengers. It has a shade top, live well, bait well, trolling motor, and 2 Raptor power anchors. Captain offers half-day and full-day trips that include rods, reels, and tackle along with lures and live bait.
You will need to have a TPWD saltwater-approved fishing license before the trip. A fishing license can be purchased online or you can ask the captain where to purchase one in person. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.
You can keep any legal fish that you catch, or you may choose to catch and release. Ask the captain about fish cleaning services. Don’t leave home without sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but please try to avoid glass bottles.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. So make it happen, with Penn Coastal Fishing Guide Services!
