Boat fishing took a turn for the unreal this past week. Last report had wade fishing "outperforming" but with winds and water quality stabilizing, the boat fishing scene just lit up. Solid Trout limits have been hitting the boards working shell reefs mid-bay, west shore, and beyond. Redfish have been a royal pain but we broke through that barrier utilizing the airboat for ease of access to the far back reaches of our environs. Follow us on Instagram.
Big Water Beat Down - Surf Heading For Primetime
Bull Reds & big schools of Jacks with the occassional King Fish and Sharks are being encountered on our big water trips with big ripping tides coming in early. That has made for some sore arms and backs of late but lots of great memories and big smiles. We should be hitting a period of stability as winds begin to back down heading toward July. That's going to make for some explosive runs on the outside beach and near shore for the Big Big's.
We've got lots and lots of great fishin ahead of us. So if you're planning a trip, get started HERE.

Flounder Gigging & Night Vision Hunts
At Castaway Lodge, we own the night whether it's spot and stalk varmints and Hogs during grain season or working blinds over baited locations on private land to stalking the shallow Flats flounder gigging by boat or wading. These trips are a great add-on to any fishing Adventure and we'd love to have you join us!
Alligator Hunts, Early Teal/Dove, Grain Season Spot N Stalk Hog
September is just one of those special months for us on the coast as we transition into Fall. We are the largest wild alligator hunting outfit in the State of Texas and we welcome you to pursuing your trophy in their natural environs. Tag on an Early Teal, Dove and make it a Cast N Blast or climb aboard our high racks for a South Texas Safari using our late gen Night Vision and Thermal optics.
