# Experience Premier South Padre Island Fishing with Captain Cliff Fleming
Hello! I'm **Captain Cliff Fleming**, and for me, the water isn't just a destination—it's a way of life. My journey began in the rich coastal waters of the Rio Grande Valley where, by the 8th grade, I was already guiding anglers to their first big saltwater catches.
Decades later, that same drive pushes me to be on the water every single day. My mission is simple: **To share the thrill of the catch with you.** Whether you are a seasoned pro looking for a challenge, a family on vacation, or a total beginner picking up a rod for the first time, I am here to guide you, teach you, and immerse you in the local lore of South Texas.

Svar fra charteroperatørChristopher Lung, mange tak for den meget positive anmeldelse. Jeg er så glad for, at Liam nåede sit mål om at fange en rød trommefisk - han er virkelig et fantastisk barn. Hvis og når du får mulighed for at komme tilbage fra Indiana, så lad os gøre det igen. Hils Liam fra mig, og vi fanger en endnu større rød trommefisk næste gang.

Jetty fishing is hot right Sheepshead ar
Feb 14, 2026 • Port Isabel
Fishing Report - February 14th, Valentine's Day 2026. Lower Laguna Madre bay water temperatures 67°. Large sheepsheads are being caught in considerable numbers at both the North and South jetty, with live shrimp proving to be the most effective bait, although dead shrimp can also yield positive results. For optimal results, employ a bottom rig with a weight on the bottom; a 2 oz weight is recommended to maintain proximity to the bottom in strong currents. The Intercoastal Waterway, both North and South of Dunkins Bay, is home to an abundance of speckled trout in the clean, green waters. Purple worms with white squiggle tails are attracting considerable attention from the trout population. Additionally, thousands of puppy drum have been observed congregating just east of Duncan's house in approximately two feet of clean water. Large schools of substantial black drum have been located south of the gas well flat, roughly a mile off the Intercoastal Waterway, identifiable by the significant rumbles on the water's surface during calm conditions. Weather conditions have intensified, with winds reaching approximately 25 miles per hour on Valentine's Day. A weak front is forecasted to approach, but pleasant conditions are expected to return by Monday morning. Anglers are encouraged to capitalize on the current fishing conditions. During our recent excursion, we successfully caught numerous fish; however, our clients opted to retain only the trout. It is essential to practice responsible catch-and-release fishing to conserve our marine resources for future generations. This report is provided by Captain Cliff Fleming of Crystal Flats Guide Service.

Sheep had spawning season right on
Feb 13, 2026 • Port Isabel
72 degrees temp
Fishing good for you wind is calm.
Sheepsheads, this is the season February 12 2026 it's time for the sheep to spawn and all the fishing guides know where to go. If you fish near the Rocks at the Jetties you tend to get the smaller sheepsheads but about 15 ft of water you may pick up the Fat Boys. The sheep head may not come fast and serious but stand your ground they will eventually come . Quality live shrimp are available at Gilbert Bait and Tackle Giant schools of black drum the puppies have been found recently almost due east of the Dunkin house within one or two feet of water. When the wind is near Dead Calm they're easy to spot you will see a huge Rumble in the distance. As a young Captain I lived at the Dunkins house for about 3 months I can tell you some stories but I digress. They may not come one after another but eventually they will come. North Jetty or South Jetties are active. The water temperature is 72. Speckled trout are still in the Intercoastal Waterway on plastic redfish are still tough and further north when it's dead calm you can see their wakes
That's it for now Crystal Flats Guide Service Captain Cliff Fleming

Winter fishing is hot redfish black drum
Feb 5, 2026 • Port Isabel
Feb 4, 2026
GOOD. 60 degrees. The bite is outstanding fishing between cold fronts. Schools of redfish, with slot and oversized fish, are being found on the spoils near Port Isabel. Sight fishing with garlic scented soft plastics with a squiggle tails has been the ticket. Most colors work well. Speckled trout have been hungry with best bite during incoming tide when the water is clear and around 54 degrees. Massive black drum schools can be found near Mexiquita Flats. Check the lunar tide charts for the best times to fish. The morning super low tides and very calm winds have made it easy to fish. Gas well flats have huge redfish, and numbers of black drum. Gayman Channel bridge is producing tons of fish. Snook are being caught in Port Brownsville. The bay from Port Isabel to Port Mansfield has redfish everywhere in shallow water. Come on down to South Padre Island for good fishing. The fish are fat with piggy perch, eels, crabs and shrimp. Report by Captain Cliff Fleming, Crystal Flats Guide Service.

Great SPI Action Cap Cliff Fleming
Jan 19, 2026 • Port Isabel
South Padre Island is experiencing ideal weather conditions, with temperatures reaching 70 degrees and clear skies, making it perfect for fishing. Recently, anglers have had outstanding success targeting redfish and trophy trout over soft bottom grass beds with mixed potholes, Additionally, cut bait and live bait fishermen have reported steady action on redfish and drum east of Three Islands. The surf fishin is great. Shorelines with soft mud bottoms good, large schools of black drum have been the highlight of the week, with dead shrimp coated in garlic or fish bites proving effective. However, finding them becomes challenging when winds exceed 15 mph, making calm mornings before the cold front the most productive time. Speckled trout near the Intercoastal Waterway have been biting soft plastics, yielding keeper-sized fish. The Intercoastal Waterway is also filled with undersized speckled trout that can provide action with soft plastics or live shrimp on popping corks. Redfish and trout can be found up north along the ICW and into the flats from marker 13 to the mouth of the Arroyo Colorado. Bottom fishing on the gas well flat with cut bait has also yielded redfish when black drum are not present, requiring patience for extended periods. Live shrimp, although scarce, have been occasionally available; it is advisable to procure them a day in advance due to high demand on weekends. The South Bay Channels have also produced catches of black drum, as reported by Captain Cliff Fleming of Crystal Flats Guide Service.

Site casting redfish on banklines has been very productive with soft plastics.
Speckled trout and red fish I've been plentiful and birds working rattlesnake area and the gaswell flats.
Many captains and boats are catching great redfish on Cut mullet and ballyhoo in the three islands area.
