Redfish, Trout, and Flounder Heating Up Along the Coastal Bend

Fishing around Rockport is off to a strong start this June, with consistent bites across inshore waters and bay systems. Water temps are sitting in the upper 70s to low 80s, and recent calm conditions have made for productive days on the water. Whether you’re wading, drifting, or casting from a skiff, now’s a great time to get out. Redfish are schooling up along the shorelines and grass flats—look for them tailing in shallow water during early morning hours. Cut mullet, shrimp, and paddle tails are all producing solid strikes. Speckled trout action has picked up, especially around shell banks and deeper drop-offs. Anglers using topwater plugs early and switching to soft plastics as the sun climbs are seeing good numbers. Flounder are also making a strong showing near marsh cuts and along sandy bottoms—perfect for those targeting a slam. Offshore reports are starting to roll in with good numbers of kingfish and snapper showing up just beyond the jetties. As we move deeper into summer, expect even more species variety. Overall, Rockport is offering solid fishing across the board right now, and with fair tides and clean water, this is the perfect time to plan a trip.

August 28, 2025

I enjoyed the conversation and the experience, but the absence of fresh shrimp bait meant we had to use artificial lures. We caught several fish, but none were above 14.5 inches, so it was more about fishing than catching. I would definitely book with him again, but I'll make sure he arranges for fresh bait to be held in reserve just for him!

August 28, 2025

Just as advertised! Captain Alan is familiar with the waters, his equipment is in great condition, and he's not only a lot of fun but also a great guy. I'll definitely book with him again and am already looking forward to it!

August 28, 2025

The captain expertly navigated us to various spots despite uncooperative weather. Despite not catching much, the captain kept us entertained with great conversation, ensuring we had a fantastic time on the water. Their commitment to client satisfaction shines through.

August 28, 2025

It was a fantastic day on the water, as expected—I've never had a bad day on the water! The captain and boat were exceptional, with the captain being punctual and continuously moving us around to find legal fish. While we weren't successful today, that's just part of fishing. Overall, it was a great experience with a highly knowledgeable captain and plenty of engaging conversation.

August 28, 2025

It was an incredibly challenging day on the water, but Allen went above and beyond to find us fish. He's definitely an A+ guide.

August 28, 2025

I had a fantastic afternoon trip with Captain Alan, filled with laughter and successful fishing. His boat and gear were top-notch, and he made the entire fishing experience enjoyable. I would absolutely fish with him again.
