Port Aransas sits at the northern tip of Mustang Island, providing excellent access to both the protected waters of the Laguna Madre and the open Gulf of Mexico. The area's diverse fishing opportunities include shallow water flats perfect for sight fishing, deeper bay systems holding larger gamefish, and offshore waters known for pelagic species. The jetties and nearshore reefs create productive structure that attracts baitfish and the predators that follow them.
