SOUTH PADRE ISLAND FISHING GUIDE

For the Shallow Water Enthusiast...South Padre Island and the Lower Laguna Madre are a Tropical Paradise! Our beaches offer some of the best sun-bathing and water sports found anywhere on the Gulf Of Mexico. The Lower Laguna Madre bay system has one of the largest Pristine Eco-Systems in the entire World. The Lower Laguna Madre stretches from South Padre Island, at its South end, to the "land cut" to the North. That's close to 70 miles of unspoiled waters to fish. Anglers from around the Globe come to fish the shallow flats and backwater bays that hold trophy Redfish and Speckled Trout.

The Pelican Services offers many ways to meet Mother Nature in her own intimate backyard. By spending 3 to 4 days (year round) a week on the flats and bays, I see and encounter nearly all that our area has to offer...however...nearly everyday brings a new and awesome experience. We fish for Flounder...Snook...Speckled Trout...and occasionally a Tarpon. We are Experts at sight-casting for REDFISH!

It would be my pleasure to personally show you the Lower Laguna Madre...at your leisure! From walking out and wading the sand flats...to Fly-Fishing the backwater spoils and underwater grass fields...to drifting and picking out your Trophy Fish! I will see that you experience the thrill of "stalking" and "catching" the truly great game fish in our area. I practice "catch and release" on a daily basis, and I encourage everyone to do the same.

"The" Pelican is a totally customized flats fishing boat. It has a smooth dry ride on windy days and is a stable fishing boat with raised platforms on the front and rear to enable us to "sight-cast" to your trophy catch. "The" Pelican can take us where we want to fish...and in comfort!

Folks...call me and let me share with you my...BACKYARD!
