Rocking Z Outfitters
Rocking Z Outfitters
If you're going to cast a line in Rockport, look no further than Rocking Z Outfitters. Your guide for the day is Captain Aaron, giving you access to years of local experience.
Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, and more are in the cards if conditions are right. You'll target your catch by drifting, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
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. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to stay fueled throughout your trip!
You'll be dropping lines from a 22' Blue Wave center console with space for 5 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided.
Before coming aboard, it will be necessary 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.
You can't go wrong when you bring bottled water, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. So make it happen, with Rocking Z Outfitters!

Ben PickleRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFun morning of fishing
Half Day Trip (AM) on October 11, 2025 • 3 adultsHad a great time fishing with Aaron. Didn't exactly empty the bay of fish, but Aaron found us some nice keepers and was an all-around friendly and attentive captain. It was a really enjoyable time out, and we would definitely fish with him again.
Raul Villa5.0VerifiedGreat Fishing
Half Day Trip (AM) on October 18, 2025 • 4 adultsWe had an incredible time fishing at the bay with our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and knew exactly where to find the fish-we were catching them almost as soon as we dropped our lines. His equipment was top-notch, well-maintained, and clearly chosen with care to ensure a smooth and successful experience. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner, you’ll be in great hands. Highly recommend booking with him if you’re looking for fun, productive day on the water.
