Secret to Offshore Fishing Texas for Kingfish

With light winds and practically no swells, we decided to venture offshore to target Kingfish in the green water of the Gulf of Mexico. Texas Kingfish fishing provides some of the most exciting offshore fishing along the Texas coast due to the explosive runs of the powerful King Mackerel.
One of the most appealing aspects of Texas offshore fishing is the structure that the oil rigs provide and the variety of species that can be caught while fishing an oil rig whether you are bottom-fishing or trolling for Kingfish. Fishing Corpus Christi, Texas provides world-class fishing, including some of the best Texas kingfish fishing. When deep sea fishing Texas, it is vital to ensure that you are equipped with the correct tackle/setup as you never know what you might hook into.

Kingfish bite about anything and are easy to catch. We tried to avoid catching Kings because although fun to catch, they are not really good eating. We preferred, dorado, red snapper, grouper, amberjack, and wahoo.

[@pbaumgardner03]

Awesome! As soon as I heard the whistle on the rig, I knew exactly where you were. Confirmed it when you hit the jetties. Good vid brother!

[@AnotherFishTail]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@ismaelcastillo1645]

How can I get there bro ?

[@CatchingDinosaurs]

Just boat flippin kings left and right :P

[@AnotherFishTail]

It’s the best way to get the kingfish in the boat!

[@kevbwc]

How far out were those rigs you were fishing and what was water depth?

[@letranvinhtri]

Hello, Nice video. I know this video has been a while but Can you let me know what the green lure you are using? Do you remember the lure name? I start going for kingfish next season and doing some research. TIA.

[@MADFISHINREELS]

Congrats on the Kings!!!! That water looked hella good! I like seeing folks use those PENN Senators!!

[@MADFISHINREELS]

That last King was solid!!!

[@AnotherFishTail]

Thanks! The water was absolutely beautiful and completely different from the bay water I am accustomed to. The Penn Senators are a great reel. Now I just have to get a fish that is going to push the Penn to its limits!

[@AnotherFishTail]

It was a great king fish! I can’t wait to go get some more of them.

[@MADFISHINREELS]

@@AnotherFishTail Not too many fish there that can push it hard enough! Those reels are beasts!! Heck of a trip man!!

[@robertneighbors4091]

Suggestion: Don't fish so close to those stand pipes, try about 60 feet away and cast towards them. You are risking a big fish taking off with your bait into the ironwork and loosing him. Also, try using bigger bait than what I saw, like 3X larger at least.

[@AnotherFishTail]

I will have to give that a try. What baits do you recommend?

[@robertneighbors4091]

@@AnotherFishTail Everyone knows ribbon fish are the best, but finding live ones are tough.

[@autovids3456]

Try out the rapala xr-14 xraps in vibrant colors like pink and orange never miss a hook up and they got strong hooks and aren’t hard to reel in like the big lipped lures!

[@AnotherFishTail]

I will have to give these a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@autovids3456]

@@AnotherFishTail no problem they run about $20-25 is the only downfall

[@flymonstersaltwater214]

About how many miles was their from the inlet

[@brettcallaway232]

How far out are you ?

[@TexasSlamFishing]

Is that a Haynie Bigfoot? Looks like great fun

[@AnotherFishTail]

No it is an older boat.

[@Jackofalmasterofnon]

Use a sabiki by the rig to catch bait

[@AnotherFishTail]

I need to give this a try!

YOU BROKE THE NET BECAUSE YOU LIFTED IT WRONG!

[@pescandorojos8326]

Cual es el secreto ?

[@jcnopenny4725]

Go out on a calm day😅

[@riverrat537]

Not trying to but in but if you are going to fish offshore run with a buddy and another boat or have twin engines, breaking down offshore could cost you your life without anyone there to lend you a hand. I blew an engine one day but fortunately we had two boats so everything worked out. The gulf is a lonely place when you have a problem and no one is around.

[@marksmanmatthew6322]

It’s worth the risk when there’s fish🤙
