Rockport Outdoor Adventures Club is an all inclusive outdoor experience. Included with your fishing and hunting experience is lodging, meals, and equipment if needed. With a yearly club membership you are guaranteed 10 weekends of fishing and 2 weekends of hunting. Six of the fishing trips will be in the Rockport area, two will be in Baffin Bay, and two will be in the Galveston Bay complex.

Our fishing and hunting club is designed for bay fishing and bird hunting enthusiasts. This is an all inclusive opportunity to fish and hunt the entire Texas gulf coast catering to your specific interest. Whether your fishing interest is wading for big trout or going after variety and quantity, the experience is dictated by our clients. Although you dictate the experience to a large extent, the primary means of fishing is using artificials. If you are an avid "bait chunker" this club is probably not for you.

Included with your club membership are also several bird hunting packages. We offer excellent dove, duck, and goose hunting within close proximity to the lodge. Daily quail and hog hunts can also be arranged. Pheasant and trophy deer hunts can also be arranged but are not included in your club membership.

Club memberships are $6000 per member and memberships are limited to a select group of outdoorsmen to better serve all members. This is your opportunity to have a monthly all inclusive outdoor experience while fishing and hunting with friends.

Rockport Outdoor Adventures offers an enjoyable and educational fishing experience for families. This week long experience is designed for parents and their children to learn and appreciate wade fishing while spending quality family time together. Four wade fishing camps will be conducted in the summer months. Novices will learn casting, retrieve, and knot tying techniques while accelerated participants will be given the opportunity to perfect their skills. In addition, camp participants will be familiarized with the latest equipment, learn about fishing in a variety of conditions, and taught about conservation.
Youth Fishing Camps will begin on a Sunday evening and run until Saturday morning. This 6 night and 5 day experience is priced at $1500 per family. Lodging, meals, and tackle are included. Although equipment is provided, participants can bring their own. Participants are also encouraged to bring an ice chest in order to take their catch home.

Your birding adventure will begin at Goose Island State Park. Goose Island is located just 12 miles north of Rockport on the shores of Aransas and St. Charles Bay. Although Goose Island is home to several species of birds, waterfowl and shorebirds are most common. From Goose Island, you will take a short boat ride to Blackjack Peninsula which is the winter home of the Whooping Crane. In addition to the Whooping Crane, over 300 species of birds and hundreds of species of plants can be viewed throughout the year.
Our birding venture offers you a smooth, dry boat ride that is more intimate than the large birding tours. In addition, our smaller 22 foot boat can get to birding destinations that the larger touring boats cannot access. Birding tours are $100 per person with a two person minimum. Each additional person is $40 with a maximum of five per trip. The typical birding tour is three hours. Morning or evening trips can be arranged.
