About Fishing in Port O'Connor

Port O'Connor Fishing Charters

Texas’ Gulf Coast has a lot to offer. And in Port O’Connor, you’re sure to get a healthy dose of reeling, relaxation, and vitamin sea. Surrounded by the Matagorda Bay, Espiritu Santo Bay, San Antonio Bay, and a stone’s throw from the Gulf of Mexico, this coastal town supports vast species of fish to catch and ecosystems to explore. If you’re looking for inshore biodiversity, a Port O’Connor fishing charter will not disappoint. Tarpon, sharks, bull reds, and jack crevalle along with speckled trout, redfish, sheepshead, and flounder flourish. Offshore, anglers can expect their pick of the gulf. Whether you’re bringing the family to drift fish for snapper and grouper or a sporty troll for marlin, mahi or sailfish, your Port O’Connor charter captain will help you check off your to-catch list. Port O’Connor is one of the most beautiful and natural landscapes in Texas. For those not interested in reeling in their dinner, there is plenty more to do. Fall is duck season in Port O’Connor, so if you want to pull a trigger and a line, you can enjoy a meal of both surf and sky. However, one of the most impressive attractions in Port O’Connor is the POC Paddling Trail. This water-laden trail is accessible only by kayak and is comprised of six trails traversing 40 miles of shoreline between the Espiritu Santo Bay and Matagorda bay. You can choose if you’d like to navigate for an afternoon or make a weekend of camping along the way. When you’re ready to turn in, whether you’ve been fishing or exploring the 26 miles of shoreline, there are droves of family restaurants ready to fry up your catch and serve you a frosty beverage. For the explorer in you, Port O’Connor is the perfect destination.

Port O'Connor Inshore Fishing

Your inshore fishing trip just got interesting. The varying depths of the bay system mean that you can not only hook into inshore staples such as black drum, speckled trout, redfish, sheepshead, and flounder, but you can also book a Port O’Connor fishing charter that lures in tarpon, bull reds, jack crevalle, and kingfish from these Intracoastal waters. If you’re booking a charter out of Port O’Connor, flats fishing is a must-try. Not only are you going to be able to find nice reds and speckled trout feeding in these shallow waters, but you’ll also stalk the deceptive and delicious flounder. Flounder perfectly camouflage themselves on the sandy bottoms. During their season, your Port O’Connor charter captain will set you up with a bottom rig and bait it with shrimp or mud minnows. These ambush feeders will strike your bait, you’ll allow them to swallow it, then you’ll set the hook and reel ’em in. Easy enough, right? Port O’Connor’s inshore sportfishing is something for the books. The bull reds that lurk in these waters are something to behold. Let your charter captain know you’re looking for the one and they’ll take you to the deep pockets of the bays where these fat mammas spawn. An easy meal of croaker, mullet, or shrimp should do the trick. Then it’s up to your arms to get them to the boat. Make sure someone in your party is quick with the camera so you can return her as soon as possible and keep the population going strong.

Port O'Connor Offshore Fishing

Accessing the Gulf of Mexico from Port O’Connor is a fisherman's delight. With plenty of reefs and structures to drift around, you’ll be reeling in snapper and grouper for days with mullet, squid, and croaker. While drift fishing these reefs, wrecks, and structures you’re bound to run into some cobia and sharks waiting for an easy snack. For more of a challenge, head out into the deep blue. Sailfish are a trophy no matter where you’re trolling for them. When you’re in the warm waters of the Gulf, the catch is just that much sweeter. Sailfish are plentiful in the summer months and love smaller baits like ballyhoo. You’ll be trolling along weed lines and in the deepwater in search of these beautiful pelagics. Sailfish are clocked as the fastest fish in the ocean and can grow up to nine feet long. When you target them you’re in a for a lengthy and heroic fight, so you’d better be ready to reel.
