Trip Summary

Today We Fish Charter and Adventures took Kim and their crew out for a fantastic 5 Hour (AM) Bay Fishing Trip in South Padre Island, TX. Though the weather was partly cloudy throughout the day, the conditions were great for a productive day on the water. We set out early, hitting the bay at around 7:00 am, and wasted no time getting our lines in the water. The plan was to use a variety of techniques, including jigging, light tackle, and drift fishing, to target a range of species. It wasn't long before the rods started bending, and we were reeling in some nice Spotted Sea Trout. These fish put up a great fight, testing our skills and keeping the energy high on the boat. As the day progressed, we continued to work different areas of the bay, adjusting our tactics to match the fish's mood. The Spotted Sea Trout kept coming, and we were all having a blast watching these beautiful fish come over the rails. It was great to see Kim and their crew so engaged and enthusiastic, sharing in the thrill of the catch. This trip was the perfect blend of great fishing and good company. South Padre Island, TX is a fantastic destination for anglers of all skill levels, and Today We Fish Charter and Adventures is the premier choice for making the most of your time on the water. Whether you're after Spotted Sea Trout or just want to experience the excitement of a day spent fishing the bays, we've got the expertise and equipment to make it an unforgettable adventure.

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.
