Grab your favorite rod and join us for six hours of non-stop fishing fun. Whether you're after a trophy redfish or aiming to fill the cooler with tasty trout, we've got the local know-how to put you on the fish.

What's Biting in Baffin

Baffin Bay is a year-round fishing paradise, but winter brings some special opportunities. The cooler water temps concentrate fish in deeper holes and channels, making them easier to target. We'll be going after a mixed bag of inshore favorites: redfish, speckled trout, flounder, black drum, and sheepshead. Each day on the water is different, but that's what keeps it exciting. One minute you might be battling a bull red, the next you could be finessing a flatfish. It's all part of the Baffin Bay experience.

Tactics for Tightlines

We don't just toss out a line and hope for the best. Our approach is all about maximizing your chances of landing fish. We'll mix it up with proven techniques like drift fishing, bottom fishing, and working popping corks. Drift fishing lets us cover more water and find active fish. When we locate a honey hole, we'll switch to bottom fishing to really work it over. And those popping corks? They're like ringing the dinner bell for hungry trout and reds. Don't worry if you're new to these methods – I'll walk you through each technique and have you fishing like a pro in no time.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Redfish: These copper-colored bruisers are a favorite among Baffin Bay anglers. They pull hard and don't give up easily. In winter, we often find them schooled up in deeper water. When you hook into a big red, hold on tight – they've been known to strip line and test drags like nobody's business. The "bull reds" over 28 inches are catch-and-release, but they make for an unforgettable battle and a great photo op.

Speckled Trout: Also known as spotted seatrout, these fish are the bread and butter of Baffin Bay. They're abundant, tasty, and put up a great fight on light tackle. Winter is prime time for big specks, with fish over 5 pounds not uncommon. We'll target them around deeper structure and drop-offs where they like to ambush bait.

Southern Flounder: Flatfish fanatics, listen up! Winter is when the big flounder move into the bay system. These ambush predators love to hang around structure and along channel edges. They're masters of camouflage, but we know their habits and how to entice them to bite. Landing a doormat flounder is always a highlight of any Baffin trip.

Black Drum: Don't overlook these hard-fighting fish. While they might not win any beauty contests, black drum are strong fighters and great eating when caught in the slot size. In winter, we often find them in deeper holes, sometimes in big schools. When you find the drum, it can be non-stop action.

Sheepshead: With their distinctive black and white stripes, sheepshead are sometimes called "convict fish." They're notorious bait stealers, but when you figure out their bite, the action can be fast and furious. Winter is prime time for sheepshead as they move into the bays to spawn. They love structure, so we'll target them around pilings, rocks, and oyster reefs.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Baffin Bay isn't just another fishing spot – it's a unique ecosystem that keeps surprising even the most seasoned anglers. The bay's famous rock formations create perfect habitat for big trout and redfish. And let's not forget about the solitude.

It's no wonder our regulars book their winter trips months in advance.

What to Pack for Your Trip

Texas weather can be unpredictable, especially in winter, so come prepared. Layers are your friend – start with a moisture-wicking base layer, add a warm mid-layer, and top it off with a wind and waterproof outer shell. Don't forget a good hat and polarized sunglasses. Sunscreen is a must, even on cloudy days. We provide all the fishing gear, but if you have a favorite rod or lure you want to bring, feel free. Oh, and bring your camera – you'll want to capture the memories (and maybe some bragging rights).
