Aransas Pass, TX Fishing Charters with Captain Justin | Clean Fun Fishing

If you're searching for an Aransas Pass fishing charter that offers a fun, family-friendly experience and a great chance to catch fish, I'd love to take you on the water. My name is Captain Justin, owner of Clean Fun Fishing, and I've spent the last 7 years fishing the bays, flats and channels surrounding Aransas Pass. Every trip is planned around current tides, weather, and seasonal fish movements to give you the best opportunity for a successful day on the water.

Aransas Pass sits in the heart of some of the most productive inshore fishing along the Texas Gulf Coast. With easy access to Redfish Bay, Estes Flats, Aransas Bay, and nearby back lakes, there are countless areas that hold fish throughout the year. Knowing when and where to fish these waters comes from years of experience on the bay, and I work hard to put every customer in the best possible location based on the conditions that day.

I fish from an 18-foot Freedom Patriot flats boat that's designed specifically for shallow-water fishing. Its stable catamaran hull provides a comfortable ride while allowing us to reach skinny water where larger boats often can't go. Whether we're drifting a grass flat, fishing a shoreline, or working deeper channels during changing weather, the boat allows us to fish efficiently without spending unnecessary time running across the bay.

Most trips launch from convenient public boat ramps near Aransas Pass, allowing us to quickly reach productive fishing grounds. Depending on wind direction and tides, we may fish protected shorelines, expansive grass flats, deeper channels, or shallow back lakes where baitfish are concentrated.

Throughout the year, Aransas Pass offers outstanding opportunities to catch redfish, speckled trout, black drum, and sheepshead. Spring brings warming water temperatures and active trout across the flats. Summer provides excellent opportunities for early morning trout before shifting to dependable redfish and black drum as the day progresses. Fall is one of my favorite seasons, with cooler temperatures creating consistent action and mixed catches. During winter, deeper holes and protected shorelines often produce excellent black drum and oversized redfish.

Every trip is adjusted to current fishing conditions. Depending on what's working best, we may fish live shrimp under popping corks, Carolina rigs, free-lined bait, or artificial lures. My goal is always to use the techniques that give my customers the best chance of catching fish while keeping the experience enjoyable and educational.

Clean Fun Fishing specializes in trips for families, first-time anglers, and anyone wanting to learn more about inshore fishing. Many of my customers have never held a fishing rod before, and I enjoy teaching the basics while helping everyone build confidence throughout the trip. Whether you're introducing your children to fishing or simply looking for a relaxing day on the water, I'll make sure everyone feels comfortable and involved.

I also maintain a no-alcohol environment on every charter. Families appreciate knowing they'll be fishing in a safe, relaxed atmosphere where the focus stays on making memories, learning new skills, and enjoying time together on the Texas coast.

Many of my customers return year after year because they know they'll receive honest guidance, quality equipment, and a captain who works hard from the first cast until it's time to head back to the dock. Every trip is different, but my commitment to providing an enjoyable experience never changes.
