Trip Summary

It was a beautiful February afternoon when Mark Gamm and his son Carter for our 5 Hour Fishing Trip with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. The weather was just perfect, with clear skies and calm waters - prime time for some excellent inshore fishing action. As we headed out, we started working some of the local flats and channels, targeting redfish and spotted seatrout. The fish were really feeding aggressively, and it didn't take long before Mark hooked up on a nice redfish that put up a great fight. Shortly after, his son landed a fat spotted seatrout. The action stayed consistent, with both anglers catching and releasing multiple healthy trout 30 inches. The fishing was definitely the highlight, but we also made sure to take some time to soak up the beautiful scenery. Gliding across the clear, shallow flats, watching the birds work the water and enjoying the coastal views made for a truly memorable day on the water. And of course, the great company and camaraderie among the group just added to the experience

The early morning conditions looked promising as we launched from South Padre Island for our half-day bay fishing adventure with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures.
