Target Species Breakdown

Redfish: These copper-colored bruisers are the crown jewel of Texas inshore fishing. Known for their hard-pulling fights and distinctive spot on the tail, redfish can be found tailing in shallow grass flats or cruising along oyster reefs. Fall is prime time for bull reds, but we catch 'em year-round. There's nothing quite like the rush of watching a red crush a topwater lure or seeing that telltale golden flash as one inhales your bait.

Black Drum: Often overshadowed by their redfish cousins, black drum are hard-fighting and great-eating fish that can really put a bend in your rod. These whiskered bottom-feeders love structure and are suckers for fresh shrimp or crab. We target them around pilings, jetties, and deeper holes. Spring is fantastic for big spawning drum, but they're a reliable catch most of the year. Don't let their ugly mug fool you – these fish are a blast to catch and even better on the dinner table.

Sheepshead: With their distinctive black and white stripes and teeth that look like they belong in a dentist's office, sheepshead are one of the quirkiest and most challenging inshore species. These structure-loving fish are masters at stealing bait, but when you hook one, get ready for a serious tussle. We find them around rocks, pilings, and artificial reefs. Winter and early spring are prime sheepshead seasons, and they're some of the best-eating fish in the bay.
