Joe Clouse

Member since March 2019 Aransas Pass, United States
Background
As a native to Corpus Christi, Texas, Capt. Joe has fished almost every bay in the area, so he knows the bay systems very well. He found his fishing specialty early on and has been successfully taking customers out to gig Flounder for over 20 years. Gigging at night is very cool under the Texas starry skies and it makes for an unforgettable Flounder trip! Capt. Joe is a proud member of the Coastal Bend Guides Assoc., Rockport-Fulton and Port Aransas Chambers of Commerce and has supported these communities throughout the years!
