Port Aransas Inshore/Offshore Fishing Report- 7/8/2020

Offshore Summer is not the only thing heating up as we have seen a great run of fishing offshore recently. The 2 weeks leading up to the 4th of July weekend were quite windy, but as the wind dropped, the number of boats out in the Gulf skyrocketed. Good news for the humans but bad news for the fish. . .

Soon after, Official Weight Master, Captain Dee Wallace, weighed the fish, figuring out its exact weight of 876lb! Troy Lancaster, a Qualified team and angler, caught this high-weight fish. While on a search of Marlin through Port Aransas Charter Fishing, his line caught . . .

CURRENT WEATHER

What are the current weather conditions

Weather (see what we did there ha-ha) it’s sunny skies, rain showers, high pressure, low tide or all of the above . . . it’s important to stay in the loop with mother nature’s forecast is! Keep tabs on the weather to better plan your trip with us!

The current weather can vastly change the experience of you trip, so be sure to keep tabs on what’s going on! If it’s a rainy day, you’ll spend more time on the outdoor boat area, and have a sunnier experience. However, during the rain, the fish will come closer to the surface. During this time, you can catch fish much faster!

Be sure to check out the weather before booking your next exposition with Fisherman’s Wharf Port Aransas!

READY TO go fishing OFFSHORE?

Port Aransas fishing charters tailored for you! Just pick the best time.

Booking your bay fishing trip has never been easier and we have several options to choose from! To start, we have the six-hour charter, which is perfect for new and advanced anglers who want a quick trip. Of course, six hours may not be enough, but that’s okay! We also offer a nine-hour trip and a twelve-hour trip for those wanting a full-day attraction. During these longer trips, we target some larger fish on the Gulf of Mexico.

Finally, we have our overnight, fifty-six-hour trip. We spend two nights offshore in either the Wharf Cat or Scat Cat, and fish for some larger catches, including Yellowfin Tuna. During this all-out sea adventure, we target deep-sea fish, such as Dorados, Blackfin Tuna, and Wahoos. Even an Blue Marlin is often found on this trip!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

We had an incredible time offshore today. Captain Jay put us right on the red snapper and my kids had a wonderful time. We will definitely be back.

I was worried because the surf had been so big at the beach the past few days, so we were a little scared of our trip being too rough and getting sick. We ended up being really surprised at how smooth the trip out ended up being, and how the boat didn’t rock too bad while we were out there, and everyone caught fish. It was a great day!

I have brought my dad down for the last few years and tried most of the boats in Port Aransas and want to say just how nice the trip was on the Wharf Cat. I was told it has just been redone on the inside and it was great! The deck hands were some of the nicest we have ever had, especially with my dad being older, they really looked after him and made him feel special. It has taken a while but we don’t have to keep looking for who to go with. This is the best!
