Captain
Roy Songy

Member since April 2019 Port Isabel, United States
Background
Growing up in New Orleans, Captain Roy used to fish the salt water on weekends. That’s where his passion for fishing started. After moving to the DFW area in 1980, he started guiding on Lake Tawakoni and has spent 10 years fishing for Hybrid and Striper. However, his love for salt water brought him to the South Padre Island area to guide for Red Snapper and other species that he grew up catching. For the captain, there's nothing like the fight of a saltwater fish! There are plenty of 15-20 lbs Snapper in Texas waters along with Cobia and Amberjack that make a trip successful.federal Season starts June 1st each year were we find the monster red snapper and much more. He guarantees you to catch a fish or the trip will be reduced to your deposit only.
Techniques
For the salt, it's live Piggy Perch and Croaker. If they're not working, you'll throw in some cut bait – Squid or Mullet, and sometimes Blue Runner. Ripping slabs will also net you some keeper Snapper.
