    Excelent fishing trip

    Artificial - Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults • 1 child

    Luke was great from start to finish. We caught trout—including speckled trout—and had plenty for dinner, plus we also landed some red drum. The boat was in very good condition and the trip ran exactly on schedule. Everything was well organized and set up perfectly. We had an excellent experience and would definitely recommend this trip. We will absolutely be back to fish with Luke again. Highly recommended!

    Excellent fishing trip!

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    We had an amazing day on this fishing charter boat trip. Luke was very friendly and knew where to take us to find fish and what gear to fish with. We highly recommend him for a great day of fishing! Despite the weather and high winds, when others would have given up and gone home, Luke made sure we had many chances to catch a lot of fish! He made sure we had plenty of fish to take home, including a prize fish that my wife pulled in! Very awesome day!

    June fishing trip

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Our trip was scheduled for Saturday. I got a message from Luke Saturday morning at 4:50 saying that he was sick and wasn't going to make it. Fortunately we were able to reschedule for Sunday! The fishing was tough, but Luke worked hard and found the fish! We caught 3 keeper trout and both of us limited out on Redfish! When we got back to the marina, the Parks and Wildlife people were impressed. They told us that there had not been many fish brought in today. Especially Redfish! So GREAT JOB Captain Luke! He is very personable and we had a great day! Highly recommended him!

    A good day fishing

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 1 adult

    Captain Luke was a great guide and tried to get us into spots to catch fish. We caught several fish but unfortunately most were under the size limit. Luke was very informative about the area and had a gift for gab. Of course, there was that one monster that got away. If I’m ever down in Corpus again I will definitely use Los Gringos again.

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout

What's biting with Los Gringos Guide Service in Corpus Christi

As the weather settles into its fall patterns, adult Bull Redfish gather at the beaches and jetties to spawn. This is one of the best times to fish in Corpus Christi. The Flounder migration is also in full swing and will last through December.
