About Your Trip

Embark on an unforgettable 8-hour adventure with Captain Jack! On this trip, you'll go offshore to chase some of Texas' most popular sportfish while enjoying amazing, wide-open views of the Gulf of Mexico!

Captain Jack will use his 45+ years of experience to take you where the fish are biting. You can expect to fish within a 40-nautical mile radius of Port Aransas, targeting Kingfish, Mahi Mahi, Cobia, and more!

You will be fishing from Captain Jack’s sleek 42’ Bertram, which is powered by twin 450 HP Cummins engines. The boat’s interior is air-conditioned and spacious and she also contains a full-sized bathroom. If you like a view, you’ll enjoy riding up in the boat’s spacious flybridge!

Captain Jack will provide the rods and reels, bait, and tackle. You must bring a valid Texas Fishing License with a saltwater stamp, food and drinks (no glass). These trips can host up to six people, so bring some good company!

Get ready for a monster day on the water with Captain Jack!

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
