Experienced Charter Fishing Companies in Aransas Pass, TX

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aransas_Pass,_Texas
Aransas Pass is well-known to fishermen and visitors from the Southwestern U.S., but it doesn't have the allure of Florida's white beaches or the east coast's beaches for sun lovers and bathers. The little village became more populated when people began to recognize the wonderful value of its fishing and shrimp industry. After WWII the shrimping fleet had become the largest on the Gulf Coast! Appalachicola, FL is the main competitor today, as far as I know. Fishing is probably the little town's number one industry, hands down. It has become a real paradise for retirees because of all the outdoor activities available day-in and day-out. Fish, hunt, sail, and even birdwatch to your heart's content. It's also convenient that this town is just a two or three hour's drive from Houston and just a few miles from Corpus Christi. Hurricanes do pop up from season to season, but people living on the coast are well aware of that.

Fishing, naturally, is one of the favorite pass-times of the residents and incoming retirees. Some have their own boats, but a lot of them don't. And people coming for short visits who want to fish need good professionals who can take them to the best spots, bait the hooks with the right bait, throw out squid or fish parts to draw fish, and clean the catch. It's hard work and many people with boats don't use them for anything but pleasure cruising. That said, there are many excellent fishermen who rent out their services. I've looked for the ones with the most compliments and comments, and for folks who have been in the business a long time.
