Big Als Offshore – Just Joan II 

Make the most of your time in Corpus Christi and go fishing with Big Als Offshore. Captain Allen will be your guide, so you'll benefit from local experience.

Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Cobia, Mahi Mahi, Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Blacktip Shark, Red Snapper, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, and more inhabit these waters if you come at the right time of year.

Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself fishing with heavy tackle, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Allen also offers fly fishing. Gear is provided but feel free to bring your own special rod.

Children are welcome, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Children under 13 must wear life vests when on deck and underway, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Feel free to bring your own youth life jackets fit for your child. They are more comfortable.

Your boat for the day is a 28' Sportsman center console with space for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live and or dead bait is included.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Before coming aboard, you will need a Texas All water fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and a hat. If you'd like to bring other drinks and snacks or lunch etc… Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
