My family and I are Port A finantics...We love to come down and visit and pay our dues to live the Port A lifestyle for weeks at a time...We have always enjoyed coming down and just relaxing but its time!!!! Its time to fish!!! We have chartered many different folks and will continue to do that however, I would like to be able to wake up in before the sun comes up and go fish for a few hours on my own. I have visited a few different sites related to Port A fishing and they all have great places to fish and great ideas on what to use.

I am a guy who likes to go venture off and find a new hole here and there but being at the coast I want to make sure that its safe and I won't hurt myself or someone else if I take my dad or father-in-law.

We don't have a boat!!!

I hear people say...Packery Channel, Dead Mans Cove, NW of Wilson's Cut, Pink Shack Cove and Green Shack Cove

But "What does this mean to me"!!! I can go down and talk to people and they can tell me the same thing BUT I don't want to burden anyone...with the technologies we have now with google maps etc does anyone have this all laid out?

any help would be AWESOME!!!!!

Dear Fanatic Fisherman,
     Glad you enjoy Port A as much as I do, and that you've got the fishing bug. There are several places available to those without boats. Although it does make it tougher, there is still come good accessible fishing. The North Jetty obviously is always a good choice, especially this time of year. If you wanted to be adventurous, pack light, take the early boat over, and walk down the St. Jo surf. If you go for a while you will eventually come to an old wrecked ship boat. Early in the morning lures will slaughter the trout and other fish that use the wrick for cover.
    Another option is to drive to charlie pasture pier early in the morning and walk a good ways down the shore there. Find a good spot and wade out there with live shrimp either free-lined or under a cork. BE CAREFUL porpoises will take your fish off your stringer and when the tankers come through you shouldn't be in water over your knees.
    Another good option is to rent a kayak. Take some wading boots and your kayak across the ferries and pull of to the right or left at any one of the dirt roads. If you pull of to the right you will only have to paddle across aransas channel before you are into the flats of south bay. Reds can be found in good numbers in this area. If you pull of to the left you will find yourself facing a small channel. Across that channel is brown and root flats which has some great fishing. If you pull of to the left a little later you will be looking at the backside of harbor island. Paddle over the channel. Anchor in the flats and walk to the drop off. Fish that drop off on a low or falling tide with shrimp under a cork in the pot holes. I have limited out on reds in that spot many times.
    Hope this has helped, and let me know how the fishing goes.
