Everyone overboard, it's a shark!

The Phase II Express is a new fiberglass 44 foot headboat, owned and navigated by Captain C.L. Clark, II. Captain Clark knows how to find the best fishing spots from his many years out on the local waters, and also has the latest in navigational fish finding equipment if they are being especially shy. If your particular catch is not large enough for Texas fishing regulations, it will be thrown back. "The Rock" was one of the spots that we stopped at that was especially productive.

Large Gafftop, weighing 6 pounds & 24 inches long

The largest fish caught on our trip was a gafftop, also referred to as a gafftopsail catfish. The gafftop gets its name from the tall dorsal fin that rises from their back. Be careful, as underneath the fin are sharp spines that support it that have a toxic slime coating. After you reel in your catch, a crew member will unhook your fish for your safety, identify, and measure. The Texas coastal waters around Corpus Christi have a great variety of fish, so you never know what interesting fish will grab onto your hook. Other saltwater fish caught during our trip included black drum, a few small sharks, seatrout and redfish.
