If you’re looking for a fun and informative inshore fishing experience in the area of Port Aransas, then Tails Up Guide Service has the charter for you! Capt. James Sabo will do everything he can to make sure that every angler who comes aboard his boat will be in the best possible hands.

You will be fishing aboard the 25’ Haynie Magnum center console boat, very well suited for fishing the area’s shallow waters. Accommodating up to 5 anglers, the boat has Garmin electronics, a wireless trolling motor, and an anchoring system to make your inshore fishing trip as productive and enjoyable as possible.

Depending on the length of your charter, you could be fishing the beautiful and productive fishing grounds of Aransas Bay, Redfish Bay, Mud Island, Estes Flats, Copano Bay, St. Charles Bay, Corpus Christi Bay, and the Beautiful Upper Laguna Madre.

There’s a variety of fish you can target in these productive shallow waters. Expect to test your skills against Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Black Drum. You could be fishing with live bait, dead bait, topwater lures, or soft plastics, depending on the conditions, your preferences, and your target species.

Please remember to bring a valid Texas fishing license with a saltwater stamp with you on your trip. Children under 13 should come with their own life jackets as the type 1 jackets supplied on board can be quite bulky.

Explore the productive fishing grounds out of Portland with Tails up Guide Service, and get ready to make some amazing new memories!
