Red Snapper
Red Snapper fishing from Wills Point requires a boat trip into the Gulf of Mexico. While Wills Point is inland, numerous charter operations along the coast can get you to the snapper grounds. The Red Snapper season is typically open during the summer months, but it's crucial to check the regulations before you go, as the season can be short and specific. Focus your efforts on offshore reefs, wrecks, and oil platforms, where snapper congregate. A helpful local tip: Use heavy tackle and braided line, as snapper are strong fighters and often hold tight to structure. Also, chumming the water can significantly increase your chances of attracting snapper to your boat. Be sure to use a descending device to help release any unwanted or undersized snapper to improve their survival rate.
