Red Snapper
Venture offshore from Corpus Christi and you'll find yourself in prime Red Snapper territory. These reef dwellers provide excellent sport fishing and delicious table fare. The summer months, when the federal season is open, are the best time to target them. Focus your efforts on natural reefs and artificial structures in deeper water, typically 60-120 feet. Chumming can significantly increase your odds of success. Use heavy tackle and stout hooks, as these fish are strong and live around sharp structure. A whole squid or cut bait fished on a Carolina rig is a reliable presentation. Be sure to consult the latest regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can change annually. A popular spot is the Aransas Bay Area, but be prepared for a longer boat ride. Remember to bring plenty of ice to keep your catch fresh.
