I started fishing saltwater when I was 12 years old, and when I moved to Corpus Christi when I was 18 to go to TAMUCC I fished almost every day. I started guiding after I got out of school while fishing tournaments with my dad in the FLW Redfish series. I have been fishing on a professional level just shy of a decade and have a love and passion for what I do.

    Great Day-2025-10-23

    8 Hour Trip — Nearshore • 3 adults

    Had a wonderful day with Captain Grant and help for the day Kevin. My son, nephew, and i arrived 15 minutes early (on time for some of us). Grant was ready, we walked onto the boat and off we went. Grant took us directly to the fish , equipment was ready, put bait on, and within minutes we were bringing 25 inch redfish into the boat on regular intervals. 2 teenage boys were kept busy the entire time (only phones were taking pictures). Highly recommend! Thanks for great day!

    Reported catch:
    Redfish
    Speckled Trout

    outstanding education and experience

    5 Hour Trip — Nearshore • 4 adults

    Grant and Fred were a great team. I have been on 5 guided trips before and this was by far thr best. This was the perfect birthday for my 16 year old twins. We would recommend them.

What's biting with Backlash Charters 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.
