There's a fish with your name on it in Matagorda and First Class Fishing Charters will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Ashton can tell you all about them.

Fish like Flounder, Redfish, Black Drum, Speckled Trout, and more can be found in these waters if you come at the right time of year. On these trips, you can expect to drift using light tackle.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids 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. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

You'll be fishing aboard a 25' Mowdy center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, you'll need 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 sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
