Hot Spot Fishing Charters

There’s a fish with your name on it in Port Aransas, and Hot Spot Fishing Charters will help you catch it!

Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Swordfish, Grouper, Marlin, Wahoo, King Mackerel, and more are in the cards if conditions are right. On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Enjoy the thrill that comes from a one-on-one fight. The crew will teach you any technique needed to cast for and reel in the fish of your dreams.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are welcome! It’s always wise to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and a hat. Alcohol is allowed in moderation. Just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. When you return with your catch, professional fish cleaners are available at the docks.

You’ll be casting lines from a 33’ Jupiter center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials, plus a toilet on board. Your Captain will provide what you need to land the big one — rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures. The boat has a large ice box to ensure the freshest catch possible and plenty of cooler space for your cold beverages.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates often work for tips, and it’s customary to offer them a 20% tip. You’ll need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
