Matagorda's location along the Texas coast provides access to diverse fishing environments. The protected bay waters offer calm conditions perfect for families, while the Gulf provides opportunities for larger gamefish. Spring and fall typically offer the most consistent action, though each season brings different species and fishing strategies.
Water temperatures, wind patterns, and tidal movements all influence fish behavior in these waters. We monitor conditions closely and adjust our approach accordingly, whether that means working the grass beds for redfish or heading to structure for bottom fish. Local bait shops and fishing reports help us stay current on the most productive techniques.
Our fishing charters include all necessary equipment: rods, reels, tackle, bait, and ice. We provide basic safety gear and can accommodate up to six anglers comfortably.
