Fresh Oso Bay Fishing Reports

Captain Cody was very personable and knowledgeable. It was a wonderful first time. We will definitely call Cody again.

It’s important to rely on expert Guides like Kevin to fulfill an enjoyable trip.

Have fun with your Captain and crew, and treat them with respect. They will certainly treat you with respect.

If this is your first time. Do not waste your money trying on your own. The shore and piers really do not offer what you are looking for. Spend the money for an incredible adventure!

I think we caught a good amount of fish given that we fished using a new technique, and that there was a full moon the night before our charter.

It's quite hot this time of year so be prepared with plenty of fluids, sunscreen, hat, etc

Call Cpt Jason Thornton! Mornings are a bit busy but the afternoon was perfect! It was a windy day but the fish were biting. Bring extra water to drink and sun screen!

Go out and enjoy your time fishing. Enjoy the scenery of the Gulf of Mexico. Make sure your phone is fully charged because the phone can quickly run out of power in the deep sea 50-miles offshore. Listen to the captain and crew. Be patient if the captain and crew has to throw the fish back in the water due to Game Warden regulations. They have rules they have to adhere to. Enjoy the fish you catch and take lots of pictures.

It was hot and himid but what do you expect for July. Captain was very professional and nice.

Great experience. I recommend Capt Jason Thornton as a guide as he has a smooth riding boat that's easy to move around on. Cold beverages (water, etc) to keep you hydrated. Very knowledgeable of the area and excellent communicator. Makes sure you have a very enjoyable trip and catch what you're intending.

Fishing is always a gamble, you are never guaranteed to catch fish, even if you can see them.

Fish a full day with a guide. Live shrimp can be tough to come by in mid to late June. You will find sone if you keep checking throughout the day! June weather can be windy and UV rays high so be prepared to cover up and keep hydrated.

There was a heat warning out today recommend that you drink plenty of water and use plenty of sunscreen. The trout were biting and it was a good time.

Go fishing early in the morning or late in the evening. Don't want to get caught in the heat, with family, to hot for kids.

Make sure you have a hat, sunscreen and sunglasses; it can be bright and hot!

Understand that fishing is mostly about conditions, the angler’s skill, and then luck. The only thing a guide can do is get you onto fish. It’s up to you to hook them and reel them in. Catching fish is never guaranteed so go in with the right expectations and you will have a wonderful day and hopefully catch something to eat for dinner.

Here’s to anyone looking to take home some fish..I booked Captain Cortez again due to an awsome first time trip. Well what can I say Captain Cortez did it again. With out hesitation He put us on some big reds and drum.. Man I could not believe this.. I was so happy and pleased on how Awsome his trips have been. I will continue to book him as well as anyone should, trust me you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Captain you are the man….

Corpus Christi has lots to offer for anglers of all different levels of experience. If and when you do get out on the water, please wear sunscreen and reapply ever so often! Next time you are out on the water I wish you nothing but the best and fish on!

Go with Ryan and have a great time, he will be very patient and get you fish.

Captains know best! Follow their recommendations and you’ll have a great time!
