Trip Summary

The weather was on our side too, with some clearing clouds in the afternoon providing ideal conditions for a productive day of fishing. As soon as we got our lines in the water, the action started heating up. We worked a mix of jigging, light tackle, and drift fishing techniques, and it wasn't long before we were into the fish. The Spotted Trout and Redfish were feeding aggressively, putting up some awesome fights and filling our cooler. It was nonstop action, with the crew staying busy and the rods constantly bending. Beyond the great fishing, the overall vibe of the trip was just perfect. Benito and their crew were an absolute blast to be around, and we shared plenty of laughs and good conversation in between catching fish. That's what really makes these trips so special - not just the chance to hook into some quality inshore gamefish, but the opportunity to spend a morning on the water with a fun, easygoing group of anglers. By the time we headed back in, we had a cooler full of delicious fillets and memories that will last a lifetime.

South Padre Morning Bay Trip: Speckled T
November 2, 2025
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. We wrapped up the morning run with good action and plenty of time before any weather moved in.
