Spend the day with Rolo’s Panga Adventures and get hooked on fishing the beautiful clear gulf waters just off the coast of South Padre Island!  VERY IMPORTANT: My fishing trip capacity for both offshore and inshore are normally 3 persons.  However, a 4th person may be added when possible, please message me to get specifics. 

Specializing in nearshore Red Snapper charters in state waters. At times bonus catches like Mahi, Mangrove Snapper, Gag Grouper, Lane Snapper, and/or Cobia. On these trips, it’s common to use mainly cut bait.  The offshore trips are mainly for 3 persons, however, 4 persons may be available with special provisions.  Do inquire.

Make sure you bring your favorite sandwiches, tacos, and/or snacks. Make sure to bring additional water or hydrating drinks in the summer.

You will be fishing on a 22' Imemsa panga. It is definitely a small Gulf fishing adventure. Folks usually enjoy the boat ride as much as the fishing, especially the kids.  Reel important to discuss details of your group to see if a 4th person can go. 

Before coming aboard, you need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online with Texas Parks and Wildlife, 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.

Some essentials to bring are a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). There will be bottled water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid overdoing it.

Take a small boat nearshore fishing trip off your bucket list. Let's go out there and enjoy the beautiful waters off of South Padre Island, and bring home some tasty snapper that they will prepare for your at about any seafood restaurant in the area.
Catch the moment, keep the fish!

A few days after stormy conditions the fishing was questionable. Captain Rolando recommended a delay of a day, went out to test the fishing and reported good snapper bites a few miles out in clear water. We had a great trip the next day and quickly caught our limit and released many smaller legal fish on the way to our limit. Perfect boat for 2 to 3 fishermen. Great vibe and super enjoyable trip.
