About the trip

This morning option is a great introduction to angling for newer anglers, as well as being the perfect way to hook yourself some tasty table fare. Capt. Chris will take you out to the most productive spots in the lower Laguna Madre, where you'll target Redfish, Speckled Trout, and Flounder. You'll be provided with top-quality fishing gear, and live bait is available at an additional cost. Just make sure you purchase a fishing license beforehand!

Captain Chris Cole has been fishingThe Lower Laguna Madre since childhood. He loves nothing more than taking customers who have never caught a fish (or have never caught a big fish!) out to explore the bay. He feels privileged that he gets to introduce these fishing grounds to people who have never seen the Lower Laguna Madre or have never been on a boat. Seeing how these customers react to their experience reminds him to never take his love for the bay for granted! As well as running charters, he also participates in all the major tournaments this area provides. He's more than equipped to take you on the adventure of a lifetime, and can't wait to welcome you on board!

Captain Chris Cole was an educator and a master angler. We were on fish within 30 minutes. Hit limits on trout and got some beautiful Reds. Book the half day and felt like a full day. Really good guy and we'll worth the investment. I strongly recommend.
