Tinnerman Guide Service

Professionally guided, bay and flats fishing charters, fishing the bays and flats surrounding the Aransas Pass, Port Aransas, and Rockport area of the South Texas Coastal Bend for over 28 years as a full time professional guide.

Fish the Aransas Pass, Rockport, Port Aransas, and Corpus Christi areas of South Texas with Captain Gary Tinnerman. Our area is home to some of the best saltwater fishing on the entire Gulf Coast. Aransas Bay, Corpus Christi Bay, Nueces Bay, and the Laguna Madre are all easily accessible via a short boat run. These bays and flats are well known for monster bull redfish and trophy speckled trout, but also offer the opportunity to hook up with black drum, sheepshead, flounder, and the occasional shark.

  2024 is Captain Gary Tinnerman’s 30th year as a “FULL TIME” professional saltwater fishing guide and am a 4th generation sportsman living and fishing in the Aransas Pass area. We fish out of a custom 24’ Mamba 24VX, powered by a Suzuki 300HP outboard, which allows us the accessibility to just about anywhere even in the roughest of conditions, while still providing a comfortable safe ride. We use top of the line Lew's  reels on Shimano  Clarus 8’ 6” rods.

  Whether you are a novice, seasoned pro, or are looking to introduce your children to the excitement of light tackle bay fishing, my guide service can accommodate you. I am here to make sure your fishing experience is a positive one, and will work very hard at making your trip a memorable one!

  Give me a call or shoot me an email, at the contacts below, to book a fishing trip or for answers to any questions you might have. I look forward to having you aboard!
