For anglers experiencing a Texas City fishing charter for the first time, fishing is about to take on a whole new meaning.
The games start with Redfish and Speckled Trout. Add to that Black Drum and Sheepshead, and guess what – you’ve just scratched the surface. If you’re after Flounder, these tasty Flatfish are on the bite from April through June, and again from October through December.
Whichever fish you’re after, you’ll have plenty of expert fishing guides to choose from around here. Trips typically range from 4–8 hours.
