Trip Summary

Hot bite and happy crew! I kicked off a fantastic summer morning with Jeffrey and buddies for our 5 Hour (AM) Bay Fishing Trip out of South Padre Island, TX. The day started early at 6:30 as we set out under clear skies, perfect conditions for a day on the water. Jeffrey was ready for action, and I was excited to show him the best spots Today We Fish Charter and Adventures has to offer. With our gear rigged and ready, we hit the water and tried a mix of techniques. We started with some croaker fishing . As the morning progressed, we ventured out for some marker 212 soft plastic fishing to round out the experience. The variety kept things interesting, and it paid off.

Throughout the day, the clear conditions held steady, giving us optimal visibility and comfortable fishing.
