Highlights of Matagorda Bay Fishing
Matagorda Bay offers some of Texas's most consistent inshore fishing, with its shallow grass beds and oyster shell structure providing ideal habitat for redfish, speckled trout, and flounder. The bay's protected waters remain fishable in various weather conditions, while its connection to the Gulf of Mexico brings in seasonal species and maintains healthy fish populations. Captain Guerra focuses on productive areas including the Intracoastal Waterway, Colorado River mouth, and numerous back lakes that hold fish year-round.
The bay system's diverse structure creates multiple fishing opportunities within a single trip. Anglers can work shallow flats for sight-fishing redfish, drift deeper grass beds for speckled trout, or target structure-oriented species around shell reefs and channel edges. This variety keeps trips engaging and productive regardless of conditions or angler preferences.
Local Tips & Conditions
Matagorda Bay's fishing success depends heavily on understanding tidal movements, seasonal patterns, and weather conditions. The bay fishes well during both incoming and outgoing tides, with moving water generally producing better results than slack periods. Wind direction affects water clarity and fish behavior, with protected shorelines often providing the most comfortable fishing conditions during windy periods.
Water temperatures drive seasonal fish movements, with warmer months bringing more active feeding and cooler periods requiring slower presentations and deeper water tactics. Captain Guerra adjusts techniques and locations based on current conditions, ensuring productive fishing regardless of the season. The bay's relatively shallow nature means it warms and cools quickly, creating distinct seasonal fishing patterns that experienced guides can exploit effectively.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

Trips typically launch from convenient boat ramps with easy access to productive fishing areas.
Captain Guerra recommends bringing sun protection, drinks, and snacks for comfort during the trip. The boat accommodates various group sizes and fishing preferences, from families seeking a fun day on the water to serious anglers pursuing specific species. Early morning and late afternoon trips often provide the most comfortable conditions and active fishing, though productive fishing can occur throughout the day depending on tides and weather.
