Fishing the Texas Gulf Coastal Bend is as good as it gets.  You can experience the excitement of battling trophy Speckled Trout, Redfish & Flounder year round.  During the summer months of May through September you’re probably going to see the largest quantity of fish in the bays, but in the winter from December through April is typically the time of year when the biggest trophy trout are caught.  Baffin Bay is known for the trophy trout caught there during the winter months. Also in the winter, the big 20-60 pound black drum are really biting.  October and November is when the flounder make their fall run. So take your pick, Captain Ron is committed to putting you on the fish.

Captain Ron will take you out in his 23-foot Haynie Bigfoot with depth finder and GPS.  The tunnel hull boat with a 225 hp Mercury Opti-max provides a very smooth, confortable and dry ride.  The oxygenated livewell system will keep all the live bait needed.

Captain Ron has been fishing the Texas Coastal Bend for over 30 years and is committed to putting you on the fish. In order to determine the location to fish any given day, Ron researches all the factors that affect where and how the fish are biting.  He checks the NOAA hourly weather prediction for speed and direction of the wind because both will affect where and how the fish will bite.  He also checks both the predicted and observed tides for the height of expected tide during the time you’ll be fishing as well as the strength of the currents because current also has a large affect on the feeding activity of fish.  Checking the water temperature is extremely important during changing weather patterns.

Thirty years of fishing the coastal bend’s seven major bay systems gives Captain Ron the familiarity with the bottom structures that you need at the various times of the years.  He goes wherever the fish are in the Texas Coastal Bend - from San Antonio Bay to Baffin Bay, pursuing speckled trout, redfish, black drum and flounder through the coastal bend's seven major bay systems.  He is a knowledgeable, enthusiastic, experienced guide whose goal is to insure you a safe, fun, and successful outdoor fishing adventure.
