Port O'Connor's inshore waters support healthy populations of redfish, speckled trout, and black drum throughout the year. Redfish cruise the grass flats and shorelines, responding well to both live bait and artificial lures. Speckled trout relate to structure and drop-offs, particularly active during moving tides. Black drum frequent deeper areas near reefs and channels, often caught while bottom fishing with cut bait.
Fall conditions bring excellent fishing as water temperatures moderate and baitfish concentrate in the shallows. The area's extensive grass flats provide ideal habitat for juvenile fish, supporting the food chain that attracts larger predators. Drift fishing allows anglers to cover water efficiently, while bottom fishing produces consistent action when fish are holding tight to structure.
Your charter includes a fully equipped boat with rods, reels, and tackle provided by Capt Stephen. The 7am departure maximizes morning fishing opportunities when fish are most active. Live bait is available at market price when conditions permit, supplementing the artificial lures and cut bait typically used for these species.
The boat accommodates up to 4 anglers comfortably, with space for additional guests at $125 per person. Safety equipment and local knowledge ensure a productive day on the water, while the extended half day format provides flexibility to adjust techniques based on conditions. Plan to bring sun protection, snacks, and drinks for the six-hour adventure.
