Trip Summary

Today was one of those perfect days out on the water here in South Padre Island, TX. The sun was shining, the winds were light, and the fish were biting. Justin Granger and his buddy joined us for our 5 Hour (PM) Bay Fishing Trip, and we were all eager to get out and see what we could find. As soon as we set out, the rods started bending. The Red Drum (also known as Red Fish) were really fired up, hitting our live baits and jigs hard. We had a blast battling those strong, acrobatic fish, watching them dance on the surface before we carefully brought them aboard. The Spotted Seatrout were also in a feeding mood, and we managed to hook into some nice ones using a mix of techniques like drifting and light tackle. It was nonstop action, with both anglers staying busy the entire time. By the time we headed back in, the cooler was nicely stocked with a great mix of fish. But the real highlight was just being out there, enjoying the beautiful bay waters and having a ton of fun in the process. That's what these South Padre Island fishing trips are all about – getting out, connecting with nature, and creating lasting memories, whether you're a seasoned angler or just looking to try something new.
