    Afternoon Trip with Capt Mike

    5 Hour Trip (PM) • 4 adults • 2 children

    Our family of four had a wonderful fishing experience with Capt Mike! My girls, 7 and 10, had a blast catching fish, playing with the live shrimp bait, seeing dolphins, and even feeding pelicans at the end of the trip. We caught plenty, including a 25inch redfish, but only kept five to eat and released the rest. Capt Mike filleted the fish for us and we had it blackened and fried at a restaurant on the island. Def recommend fishing with Capt Mike!

    Half day trip 3/22

    5 Hour Trip (AM) • 6 adults

    We had an awesome time! Mike was knowledgeable and took us to all of the good spots. He had a lot of patience with baiting and casting for those of us that struggled (me). He also gave a lot of good tips as well. We will definitely book with Mike again when we come back down. Thanks for the great memories Mike!

    Captain Michael was very knowledgeable not only about the fishing trip but as well as the Island, restaurants, etc. He is very patient and welcoming. We will be booking with him for our Summer trip as well. We had a blast and didn’t want the trip to end.

What's biting with Paradise Charters in South Padre Island

Flounder time! The fish will hide around grass beds and near passes. There are also Tarpon, Snook, Redfish, and Trout about. If the weather allows it, Snapper in state waters are a big deal.
