Spend the day with Hookin' Huffman and get hooked on fishing in Port Aransas! With Captain Jared at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Black Drum, Sheepshead, Redfish, Flounder, Bonnethead Shark, Mangrove Snapper, Spotted Seatrout, and more, depending on conditions. On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Your fishing machine for the day is a 23' Stoner SuperCat center console with space for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Jared has rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

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.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

If there's more you'd like to know about fishing with Hookin' Huffman, feel free to send Capt. Jared a message down below.

Wow - Great family fishing trip!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 12, 20264 adults
2 great days of fishing with Jared. He's very accommodating, knowledgeable and helpful with putting us on fish. One five hour trip with just my son's included 5 fish in the cooler and several undersize released. The following day was with our wives (they have only small fish experience), wow, Jared had put us on the fish right off the bat, within 5 minutes my daughter in law caught her largest fish ever. Several fish later my wife caught her biggest fish ever as well. This day was a memory maker for all of us. Two day totals for our dinner table was 6 reds, 3 trout, 1 mangrove snapper, 1 gaftop, A 22 inch trout was landed and released as well. We highly recommend fishing with Jared!

Great guide but fish weren't biting
4 Hour Trip (AM) on May 14, 20263 adults
First, Jared was a very good guide and went out of his way to put us in spots to catch fish; however, the fish just were not biting as expected. caught first Red with 20 minutes of casting and we expected this would be a great day if fishing, but for the remainder of our trip we only caught 1 more Red that we could keep. we did catch a few little Reds and catfish that had to be let go. Jared took us to multiple areas trying to get us more but it just wasn't happening. Jared was very talkative and explained everything to us. However, even with the limited fish we caught, I would recommend Jared as a guide for others.

4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 3, 20263 adults1 child
Fishing was a bit slow this morning, but Jared was an amazing guide and did what he could to put us on some Reds. He was very patient (young kid that would rather play than hold a fishing rod) and friendly and we finally landed a couple keepers. Highly recommend and will try to use him again in the future.

Captain Jared Huffman
5 Hour Trip on September 7, 20252 adults
Captain Jared is a great guy. We got caught by a storm early in our trip which was the only disappointment but nothing any Captain can control but I will say that within an hour we had 2 Red keepers and if that storm wouldn’t happened then I was already preparing to hook up the rest of the trip. Both my Son and Law are super ready to get down there and do it all over with no storm. By the way also gave us some fishing around Port A without a boat. Son and Law wouldn’t get off the beach the rest of the weekend without a rod. Thank You Captain Jared. Once again look forward to the next trip!

Five-Star Experience with Hookin’ Huffman
5 Hour Trip on July 3, 20252 adults
My son (Moose) and I had the pleasure of spending a 5-hour trip on the water with Jared Huffman—better known around Port Aransas as Hookin’ Huffman—and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. While the fish weren’t exactly cooperating that day, it didn’t matter. Jared’s professionalism, energy, and deep knowledge of the waters made the experience unforgettable. He had us laughing, learning, and completely engaged the entire time. The boat was spotless, the gear was top-notch, and Jared worked non-stop to put us on fish. It’s clear he takes pride in what he does, and even more clear that he truly cares about his clients having a great time—fish or no fish. If you’re looking for a guide who knows his stuff, treats you like family, and makes the most out of every minute on the water, Hookin’ Huffman is your guy. Moose and I will absolutely be booking with Jared again—next time we’ll bring the fish with us!
