Local Species Insights: Texas Gulf Coast Fishing
The waters around Matagorda support a diverse fishery, with sheepshead being particularly abundant around structure. These fish are known for their excellent table fare and challenging fight, making them a favorite target for both local and visiting anglers. The area also produces consistent action with redfish, speckled trout, and flounder in the bay systems, while nearshore trips can yield king mackerel, cobia, and various shark species depending on the season.
Sheepshead fishing requires specific techniques and bait presentation, skills that William has perfected through years of guiding in these waters.
