[UPDATED 7-4-25] I think I may have a window for everyone. It could very well be “go” time for us to hit the water! There is a huge window starting over the upcoming weekend but the best day looks to be on Wednesday. As of now, I am going to have this outing on Wednesday, July 9th. My apologies on placing this on a weekday but in years past, I have found that most of the windows fall on a weekday with the hopes of it being on a weekend. I have had people wait several years for this to go off on a weekend and they never get out. My advice will be to see what happens with my last post on Sunday to confirm this date and try and get out to fish if the date intended works out. If it’s your first time to go btb, you will have a great time. Get your gear ready because it’s about to get real!!

Hello to all my fellow kayaking friends. Just like last summer, 2024, I wanted to do something for this summer 2025 in regards to BTB (Beyond the Breakers) kayak fishing for new people (of course intermediate and advanced kayakers are welcomed as well). Several years ago, I put together a BTB trip for anyone that wanted to get out to do BTB at Surfside, this included kayakers of all levels. It was awesome! We had a total of 34 kayakers that made it out that day. Many just went to the buoys while others went to the 5-mile rig. It was cool to see that many yaks out on the water. Some of the people that fished off the jetty’s at Surfside thought that there was a kayak tournament going on with that many kayaks launching, lol. The following year I ran another one of these outings except it was run out of Corpus Christi instead of Surfside. We had many more show up than the previous year. This trip was a huge success! I believe all the new kayakers caught kings that day and I would say around 70% of the new kayakers limited out on kings. On top of it all, some of the new kayakers caught cobia. What an amazing day on the water it was!! As each year has gone by, this outing has become larger and larger. This has turned out to be a great way for new kayakers to learn how to go BTB and hopefully to catch some fish while out there on the water.
