Andy Vela
If fishing in Brownsville is on your bucket list, look no further than Capt Andy Vela.
Snook, and more inhabit these waters if you come at the right time of year. Depending on the fish you’re after, you may find yourself light tackle fishing, popping, drifting, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Also remember to bring snacks to keep 'em happy!
Capt. Eduardo runs a 16' center console with capacity for 3 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Eduardo will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures.
Before coming aboard, it will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, 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.
Don't leave home without sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Bottled water is included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Andy Vela!

3 Hour Trip – Run and Done
April fishing trip
Had a great time . The weather was not on our side (windy) Yet Captain Andy put us on some fish and made the trip fun, educational and enjoyable. My 9 yr old is a handful and he was as gracious as could be with her . Showing her and my oldest daughter a thing or two about fishing. My youngest caught the biggest fish! It was a memorable one for sure . Will definitely be back!
