Trip Summary

As soon as we got our lines in the water, the action started heating up. We started off with some bay fishing, working the deeper structure and channels. It wasn't long before Justin's rod doubled over, and he was into a nice Spotted Seatrout. That fish put up a great fight, stripping line and carving sharp turns, but Justin kept cool and landed it with skill. We switched it up and tried some light tackle jigging, and that's when the Redfish started to show up. These powerful fish put on an incredible aerial display, jumping and shaking their heads, trying to throw the hook. But we kept the pressure on, and Justin managed to boat a few nice Redfish as well. The trip had a great flow to it, with the fishing staying consistent throughout the day. In between bites, we got to take in the beautiful Texas scenery and enjoy the peaceful time on the water. It was just the right mix of action and relaxation, the kind of day that reminds you why fishing is such a special and captivating sport. If you're looking to experience some of the best fishing Texas has to offer, be sure to book your spot on the (AM) Fishing Trip 5 Hours with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. Whether you're after hard-fighting Redfish, lively Spotted Seatrout, or just want to enjoy a day on the water, our team will make sure you have an unforgettable adventure. We can't wait to have you join us and see what the Texas fishery has in store.

South Padre Morning Bay Trip: Speckled T

Megan and family headed out for our fall morning trip with partly cloudy skies and the possibility of storms rolling in later. 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. We focused on drift fishing and bottom fishing techniques, with some trolling mixed in to cover more water. They managed to land a solid speckled trout and a 25” drum during our session. South Padre Island's bay system works well for these techniques because of the varied structure and current patterns that hold fish consistently.
