If you plan on fishing in Corpus Christi, look no further than Tail Stalking Guide Service. With Captain Joe, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

Species like Black Drum, Flounder, Sheepshead, Redfish, Speckled Trout, and more could be biting if you cast your line at the right time of year. During the trip you might be spinning, popping, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Capt. Joe welcomes you aboard a 22' Majek bay boat with a capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Joe will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You will need to get 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.

Don't leave home without sunglasses, a hat, and sunblock (non-spray). Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Amazing Day of Fishing
5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 21, 2024

This was an absolutely incredible experience. Joe is an absolute professional in every sense of the word. He’s kind, courteous, and has a great sense of humor. Joe knows where the fish are because he spends a majority of his time on the water. If he’s not taking out charters, he’s going out with friends or family to conduct research and see where the fish are most abundant and what they’re eating. We had our three-man limit of trout in an hour and a half and ended the day catching and releasing even more fish. Aside from our safety and well being, Joe’s priorities are putting fish in the boat and providing memories to last a lifetime. We will, without a doubt, go fishing with Capt. Joe Garza again.

Reported catch:
Speckled Trout

Me and my bro had an awesome time with Captain Joe on our trip. He put us on some fish and we both caught our personal best trout!! He makes u feel comfortable and makes sure to do whatever he can for you to catch fish. He had all the different set ups ready to go and kept us going the entire time we were out there. Not to mention his nice boat and all really nice gear. We highly recommend for a good time and some good fishing. We will for sure come back and make some more memories with Captain Joe! 👍🏼🎣
