Transport from Fulton Harbor on the Skimmer

SPACE IS LIMITED, SO PLEASE SIGN UP EARLY!!!

Unloading the SkimmerFor the second year in a row, Alamo Fly Fishers has arranged with Rockport Birding and Kayak Adventures to transport our members with kayaks for a day of fishing to the Fence Lake area on the back side of San Jose Island. Cost for transport is $45 per person. One person will get a free trip - we will draw the name from a hat as we leave in the morning.

We will meet at 5:30 a.m. on Saturday morning, April 26th, at Rockport Birding and Kayak Adventures (www.rockportadventures.com), 216 North Fulton Beach Road. We will load our kayaks and fishing gear aboard their transport boat, the Skimmer, and try to leave by 6:00 a.m. Capt. Tommy Moore will be taking us to the edge of the Fence Lake area on the backside of San Jose Island for a day of fishing and kayaking. This is a premier flats fishing area where tailing redfish are commonly found. But don’t overlook the drop-off along the shoreline, potholes, and passes for Speckled Trout. The Skimmer will return to pick us up later that afternoon, approximately 3:30 p.m. A definite time and location for the return trip will be determined that morning.

We are going to a remote area, and we will be on the water all day. Some things you should consider bringing are:
