Epic. It’s the only word for fishing on South Padre Island. Regarded as the best year-round bay, offshore, and surfcasting destination you’ll ever find, you need to put the Island on your list of places you have to experience yourself.
Experienced fishermen in the state will tell you their trophy catch came from South Padre Island, and it’s easy to know why. With the help of the state’s best fishing guides – or armed with your own reel prowess – you can bring back the fish most anglers only dream of. You have your choice of experiences: from the deep sea excitement of the Gulf to the relatively calm waters of the Laguna Madre to a simple walk out on the Jetties to cast for some kingfish.
No matter where you go, you’ll find plenty to take the bait. There are more than 600 different fish species around the Island from deep-sea billfish, shark, and triggerfish to the Laguna Madre’s flounder, redfish, and trout. To top it off, you can find a dozen
restaurants ready to cook up what you’ve caught. Afterwards you can enjoy miles of pristine beach with stunning sunsets and sunrises.
Fish where the trophy catch swim. South Padre Island.
