Bay Fishing

Port Aransas fishing is among the Gulf Coast's finest. Cast a line for speckled trout, redfish, flounder, drum, sheephead, and more. The Texas Gulf Coast is home to a variety of fishing charters and excursions, including the Island Queen II. With 30 years of experience, the Island Queen is a favorite among locals and travelers alike. 

The Island Queen is a converted ferry boat offering 2,000 feet of deck space, including a shaded lower deck and sun-soaked observation deck. The boat departs from Woody's Sports Center three times each day. Island Queen also offers private boat charters for family reunions, company outings, birthday parties, and more. 

What to Know Before Your Port Aransas Fishing Excursion

The team at Island Queen provides rods, reels, fishing bait, and tackle. Prepare for a three-hour or four-hour excursion on the water. The boat's captain will bring you to the best spots and provide expert fishing tips and instructions. 

Bring along a cooler to bring back the fish you catch. You may also want to bring along snacks and drinks for the trip, a camera to capture every moment, and, of course, sunscreen. The whole family is invited on Island Queen II. Kids 12 and under are half the price of an adult ticket.
