Big fish action

May 18, 2024 Surfside Beach

Went out on a short beachfront trip recently with catches of shark and bull reds. On the calmer days its been pretty easy to get into some big bull reds in the 34-40 inch range. Along with sharks. If you would like to get into the action, Texas Saltwater Adventures is the place ! Capt

3/4 Day Trip

Very friendly people. But sent us with a just turned 20 year old by with a 15 year old first time hand. Caught very little and what we did catch to keep was pushing it from bay. Seemed alack of experience. And to spend 1000 dollars between trip and tip to deck hands was not worth what was spent on trip by any means. Entire family was very sad and disappointed.

Got stopped by coast guards for fishing in “illegal waters” on top of that our fishing guide didnt have a charter license with him. That wasted atleast 30 min. Of our time that we paid for “fishing”! We left the dock at 8:00 A.M. and returned at 11:40 A.M. the fishing trip was supposed to be from 8:00 to 12:00 so if you calculate it we fished for about 3hrs, well less than that if you include drive time. For what its worth he was a nice guy but didnt have stuff together! Would not recommend!
