Fishing in Matagorda

Nestled right between the West and East Matagorda Bays lies one of the oldest towns in Texas. Matagorda is one of the best-kept secrets among fishing enthusiasts in the Lone Star State. With abundant natural resources and water all around, joining a Matagorda fishing guide is sure to be a great experience.

When it comes to fishing opportunities, you’re in for a treat! With the Colorado River passing through the town, and with such easy access to the rich waters of Matagorda Bay, it’s no wonder fishing is extraordinary. Speckled Trout, Redfish, Flounder, Sheepshead, Black Drum, and many more are in the cards here.

Matagorda is the perfect place to visit for a relaxing day of fishing. Looking for a nice family gathering? A half day trip in these waters is the best choice. If you’re more experienced and up for some serious action, consider booking a full day trip. And if you want to see what Texas fishing is really all about – a Flounder gigging trip is just what you need!

Since fishing is a key part of Matagorda’s magic, it means that finding a fishing guide here is a piece of cake. All you need to do is head down to Matagorda harbor and take your pick out of the many fishing charters on offer. Whichever one you choose, one thing’s for sure – you’re in for a lot of fun!

Rules & Regulations

When it comes to fishing regulations in Matagorda, you’ll need a Texas fishing license. This is a requirement for everyone age 17 and older, regardless of whether you’re booking a charter or going on your own.
