What would you recommend to anglers fishing in South Padre Island, Texas for the first time?

Fishing was great, just check to see what Saturday the fishing tournament in May is going to be on. Would have fished Saturday also, but did not want all the chaos from 400 boats fishing in the bay.

Waves were larger than any other charter I’ve been on. Take Dramamine the night before and morning of so you aren’t the main source of chum.

Hector is courteous and helpful in sharing knowledge . Willing to go when weather conditions weren't ideal. Enjoyable day of fishing.

The first hour we moved to a few locations before we found a good spot. We only caught whiting fish. They were small but we were able to catch enough for a great dinner.

Have fun fishing but take time to enjoy the surroundings. What a beautiful place and friendly people.

Undertow is strong on the surf so be smart while fishing. Night time Fishing on the pier in port isabel is fairly good with artificial shrimp. Good luck!

Fish with a good guide who has good equipment and lots of experience fishing the Lower Laguna Madre.

Would take a light jacket as it can be cold when you are going out to the location

January fishing in south Padre can be variable but the scenery is gorgeous regardless.

Wish all days could be like today Just enjoy time on the water and hopefully catch fish

If it's your first time deep-sea fishing,don't forget to take sea sick pills the knight before

Go to enjoy being out on the water in nature. Fishing can be hit or miss. Just relax and enjoy.

The guides know best. Trust in their local expertise, no matter how much experience you have.

We had a tropical storm hit in Mexico a few days ago, not not a fair comparison.

Don’t bring a bunch of snacks, you won’t have time to eat them. Too busy bringing in fish!

Book a trip with Hector Lopez, he does everything possible to make the experience a great time.

Top notch charter and captain from booking until he cleaned all of our fish! Amazing day

Captain said that the seaweed is worse this time of year which makes it harder with lures.

Trout were slow because of the Texas heat but overall a great time, even in the dead of summer.

we had a great time fishing with Arthur. we will ake sure to book with him again

Do some bay fishing find u a good captain that has good reviews and would put u on some fish

It is very hot out, so be prepared with proper clothing and drink lots of fluids.

Reach out to your Captain and get an idea of what fishing you can expect when booking your trip.

December is a slower time of year for fishing but we caught what we were hoping to!

Be flexible with what you want to catch. Wind and tides may rewrite your plan for the day.

If you are new make sure you get a guide who knows where to go such as Captain Elliott.

Call Capt Dave and go in the morning. When that first 7lbs Red-hit my line it was incredible.
