Spend the day with Capt. Ryan's Guide Services and see what's biting in Corpus Christi! Having logged many hours and days on the famous Baffin Bay and the beautiful Laguna Madre, Captain Ryan can tell you all about them.

Species like Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Redfish, Flounder, and more can be found in these waters. Hot or cold weather 12 months out of the year fishing in Corpus Christi is a blast!

Your day begins aboard a beautiful brand new 23' custom Haynie bay boat with room for 5 passengers. It comes with all the essentials needed for our trip.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids (ages 5+) 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. Kids under the age of 13 are required by law to wear a life jacket. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks and any other drinks of your choice.

Capt. Ryan will provide all the rods, reels and tackle for you. Everything is included in the cost of the trip except fish cleaning. When we return back to the doc you will take pictures of your catch and a professional fish cleaner will fillet and bag your fish for you.

You will need a valid Texas saltwater fishing license before the trip. This information is available online through Texas Parks and Wildlife, or you can ask the captain.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, sunblock, and a hat. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor and no glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Capt. Ryan's Guide Services.

Awesome trip!
Afternoon Fishing on June 14, 2026
Captain Ryan was absolutely incredible—hands down the best fishing charter experiences we’ve ever had! He went out of his way to work us into his schedule last minute, which he did not have to do, and it truly shows his character and dedication. From the moment we got on the boat, everything was taken care of. He provided all the bait, rods, and expert guidance, and took us straight to the best spots at the perfect times. Not only did we catch fish—we hit our limit on speckled trout. Captain Ryan clearly knows these waters like the back of his hand, and it shows in every decision he makes out there. On top of that, his boat is beautiful, and the afternoon fishing the flats was beyond anything we could have hoped for. It was truly an unforgettable experience. We had an amazing day from start to finish, and there’s no question—on our next trip, Captain Ryan will be our first call. Highly, highly recommend!

Cap. Ryan is amazing, like WOW!!
Full Day Trip on June 7, 20262 adults
Me and my mom came down from houston area and spending the week with family while we fished for our first vacation in YEARS. My mom wanted to do all kinds of fishing we never have time for, so i surprised her by booking Cap. Ryans charter. I even added another person after paying and he was absolutely flexible with me. My mom and Tio had the greatest time ever, we all got along, talked, fished, and had such a pleasant time. I've never seen them smile so so much. Will definitely be coming back to him to hang out on the water and fish again. Absolutely recommend, cannot state it enough, patient, knowledgeable, funny, talkative, and just so passionate about what he does. Thank you again Ryan, Victoria and Her mom and Tio.

BEST fishing captain we’ve ever had!!
Half Day Trip Morning on June 8, 2026
Captain Ryan was awesome! We fished three days. The first day we fished for trout and drum. He made sure we got our limit on both! He knows where the fish are! The next two days we fished for trout and got our limit again! He not only baited our hooks and casting for us but he believes in teaching his clients how to do it all! We will definitely be back because he is determined to get you your limit every time! Like he says” we got bit!”

Full Day Trip on May 25, 20262 adults
From the very start of booking Ryan was 100% in contact with us in all the details. He explained hiw to fish with croker and took time to adjust our technique as needed. We limited out on trout with in the first two hours. Next he took us to a black drum oasis we had 7 in 15 mins and then limited out in the next 30 mins. If you want a good time with a hell of a Captian. Book Ryan Today!
