Portland TXÂ Fishing Charter Info
Portland Texas is a small coastal town that sits between Nueces Bay and Corpus Christi Bay and is well known as a central location to all the hot fishing areas in the Texas coastal bend we are the go to fishing guide in Portland TX. Sunset Lake Park is on the way out of Portland TX driving towards Corpus Christi TX. This lake is trapped by land except for 1 drainage tunnel that travels under the 181 cause way. This creates an environment that breeds some of the largest trout and redfish in the area. Once they get into Sunset Lake there are essentially stuck and have a food source all to themselves.
Also nearby is the Portland Shoreline that takes the force of the southeast wind and consistently forces bait fish and small plants into the area. It has a hard sand and shell bottom and concrete barriers protecting the shorelines from the wind creating some of the best fishing structure. The Portland Shoreline is a hot spot for wade fishing for trout all year long and is loved by kayak fishers also. This shoreline also connects to Aransas Pass we have a office and some great fishing guides in Aransas Pass as well.
On the north side of Nueces Bay is the recently made man made fish habitat behind what used to be Gunderland Marine this area is thriving with redfish and trout in the guts that run between these islands. It has a very muddy bottom which is great for shrimp and in turn creates one of the best locations around to fish for redfish and flounder. If you want to hire the best fishing charter in Portland TX you have found the right place.
The main fishing pier in Portland TX is the Indian Point pier this pier is located of the causeway near Sunset Lake Park and sticks out into Corpus Christi Bay. This pier has lights and was recently renovated making it what I consider the best public pier in Portland TX. This pier has a history and legend for producing some of the largest black drum or big uglies as we like to call them during the annual drum run and you can get reports when the bite is on at Indian Point Pier on Facebook normally.
The other body of water Portland is connected to is Redfish Bay out of Aransas Pass Texas it is connect via Corpus Christi Bay and the La Quinta Channel that runs along the shoreline and takes you through Ingleside on the Bay. The La Quinta Channel gets its name because it runs along the shoreline on the west side of La Quinta Island. This island has a hard sand bottom due to the dredging that keeps the channel deep and is good for trout and flounder all year.
