Trip Summary

It was a beautiful day out on the water as we headed out for our (AM) Fishing Trip 5 Hours with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. The clear conditions and great water quality at South Padre Island, TX made for an ideal fishing trip in April. This time of year is prime for targeting a variety of inshore and nearshore species, so we were excited to see what the day had in store. As soon as we got our lines in the water, the Spotted seatrout started biting. We worked the area using a variety of techniques - Popping, jigging, light tackle, and drift fishing - to see what they were responding to. It didn't take long before someone in the group had a fish on, and the back-and-forth struggle had us all on the edge of our seats. We managed to land several nice Spotted seatrout, a real highlight of the trip. The fishing stayed strong throughout the day, and we had a blast working different spots and techniques to keep the action going. In between catches, we had the chance to take in the beautiful South Texas scenery and enjoy each other's company. It was just an all-around great day on the water, the kind that reminds you why we keep coming back to chase our favorite species. If you're looking to experience the best fishing South Padre Island, TX has to offer, I can't recommend the (AM) Fishing Trip 5 Hours with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures enough. Whether you're an experienced angler or just getting into the sport, our knowledgeable guides will put you on the fish and make sure you have an unforgettable time on the water. We've got a ton of tricks up our sleeves when it comes to targeting the region's top gamefish, and we'd love to share that expertise with you. So what are you waiting for? Book your trip today and let's get out there!

Experience Spotted Trout Action in South
August 19, 2025
What a great day on the water, couldn't ask for more action! I had the pleasure of taking Juan and their crew out for a 1/2 Day Morning Bay Fishing Trip with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. We set out early on a beautiful summer morning from South Padre Island, TX. The conditions were perfect - clear skies and calm waters greeted us as we headed out at first light. It's always a treat to be on the water as the day begins, especially when you're with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. Once the stage was set, we got down to business. We employed a mix of techniques including surf casting, bottom fishing, and drift fishing. These methods are ideal for the diverse marine life around South Padre Island. Our efforts paid off when we hooked into some Spotted Weakfish. The highlight of our catch was a nice 12-inch Spotted Weakfish. While it wasn't a monster, it put up a good fight and gave Juan and the crew a taste of what South Padre Island fishing is all about. We wrapped up the trip with smiles all around, enjoying the thrill of the catch and the beauty of being out on the water.
