Bay Fishing Trips
“Fishing in a place is a meditation on the rhythm of a tide, a season, the arc of a year, and the seasons of life..” -Carl Safina
Bay Fishing TripsFrom $53/person
Our 3.5-hour bay fishing trip is a great choice for families, first-time anglers, and anyone looking for a shorter fishing trip close to shore. Fish the calm, protected waters of the Corpus Christi Channel while enjoying plenty of time to catch fish without committing to a full day on the water.
With a relaxed pace and conditions that are typically calmer than offshore trips, bay fishing is an easy way to get out on the water and enjoy fishing in Port Aransas.
