If you plan on fishing in Aransas Pass, look no further than The Salty Sea-Hunt. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Stephen can tell you all about the local fishery.

These waters are known for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. For these species, you're likely to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Your adventure begins aboard a 17' G3 bay boat that holds up to 3 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Rods and reels are covered by the charter, so ask the captain about bringing your own. Be sure to ask about bait and lures as well.

You will need to buy 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 sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with The Salty Sea-Hunt is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

    Thankfully, my son caught a couple of keepers on this trip, though I only ended up with three small catfish. Traveling all the way from Colorado and paying $450 plus tax, we were both pretty disappointed with the amount of fish and species caught compared to the last couple of charters we've been on. That said, the captain definitely tried his best to get us on the fish—he even stayed out an extra 30 minutes to try and make it happen. It just didn't work out for us this time, but we appreciated his effort.

    Captain Williams, Was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgeable about where fish could be feeding.while the wind was not in his control he worked hard to find places that were not affected as much by the windy conditions. I recommend the Salty Sea-Hunt to others looking for a good time fishing.
