    AMAZING!!!!!!

    Half Day Trip (PM) • 4 adults

    Capt Matt went above and beyond in making this fishing adventure truly memorable for me and the family. He put us on the fish almost immediately. We wound up with over 30 pounds of redfish fillets for the freezer and my son was able to land a 60 pound alligator gar. I would highly recommend Matt as your captain. I cannot wait to go back and book with him again. Thank you, Captain Matt!

What's biting with Matt's Fishing Adventures in Aransas Pass

Flounder joins the Redfish inshore to add another dimension to the question, 'What's for dinner?' Fish the shallows or head offshore to take on some monster Tuna and Mahi Mahi.

Spring fun is officially here!

Mar 31, 2025 • Aransas Pass
Spring time is one of the best times to fish. The fluctuation of the higher tides and comfortable water temps makes for a solid combination. Fish moving in from the gulf in solid numbers and feeding very aggressively throughout the day. Lets get you booked up and hooked up.
