Best Duck Hunting Lodge In Texas
Our Texas mid-coast duck hunting guides command the best backwaters for puddle ducks and then range widely for divers and mixed puddle ducks on our barrier islands and back lakes. With the best airboat manufacturer at your side, our Air Ranger airboats power us and our guests effortlessly into the places where we make the “memories of a lifetime”.
**Fishing Report**
With Tropical Storm Barry beating on Louisiana, we managed to take advantage of the North winds associated with the Low Pressure and ease out into the surf with guests of GADCO in for their 3rd Corporate Event of the season. Fast action and solid Trout limits were the theme for boat fishing guests. Capt. James Cunningham and Capt. Jake Huddleston remained in the bays wade fishing and that was also highly productive. Redfish action took a turn for the better but is still very slow at the moment. Capt. David Garcia reported half limits on Saturday and then turned around and lit them up with full limits on Sunday’s half day trip in elevated winds. Sure enough, they’ve got to eat sometime!
**Lodge News – Alligator/Teal/Dove On The Horizon**
Not many outfits can execute on the above combination but being the largest wild alligator hunting outfit in Texas has it’s advantages. Prime inland flats and rice country put us in the thick of the early Teal migration while farms and fields near Port Lavaca put the White Wing and Mourning Dove at our clients disposal. This is a great time for Cast & Blast combinations and afternoon fishing trips and grain season Night Vision Hog hunts line up well with Alligator Hunting activities. Come see us. Alligator Season is September 10th through the 30th.
We’ve got lots and lots of great fishing ahead of us. So if you’re planning a trip, get started **[HERE](https://seadriftbayfishing.com/calendar)**.
