Trip Summary

Today, I had the pleasure of taking Kolleen and their crew out on a 3 Hour (AM) Bay Fishing Trip with Today We Fish Charter and Adventures. Despite the partly cloudy skies and the possibility of some strong storms, the weather held up, and we had a great time on the water. We started the day bright and early, meeting at South Padre Island, TX, and heading out into the bay. The water conditions were perfect, and we were eager to see what the day had in store. Using a combination of jigging, light tackle, and drift fishing techniques, we scoured the bay, searching for the perfect spots to target our quarry. It didn't take long before the action started heating up. Kolleen and their crew were reeling in Spotted Seatrout and Redfish one after the other, with the occasional surprise catch mixed in. The fish were putting up a great fight, and we all had a blast trying to land them. The varied techniques we employed allowed us to cover a lot of ground and really dial in on the best spots. As the trip drew to a close, we reflected on the fantastic morning we had spent together. The weather, the fishing, and the camaraderie all combined to create an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just looking to try your hand at some bay fishing, Today We Fish Charter and Adventures has the perfect trip for you. So, if you're planning a visit to South Padre Island, TX, be sure to book your 3 Hour (AM) Bay Fishing Trip with us. We can't wait to share the thrill of the hunt and the joy of the catch with you!

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.
