Rusty Hook Outfitters

Rusty Hook Outfitters offers floating-cabin stays and fishing experiences on the Texas Gulf Coast. Located at King Ranch Shoreline, south of Compuerta Pass near the mouth of Nine Mile Hole, the cabin is positioned within reach of fishing spots including the Badlands, Cat Head, Tide Gauge Bar, and Point of Rocks. The site is accessible by boat, with the journey from the listed departure area taking about 45 minutes.

The newly built cabin is designed for comfort in a fishing setting and is available year-round. Cabin rentals cost $400 per night for up to three guests, with additional charges for larger groups; a two-night minimum applies. Guests can also book round-trip transportation, guided fishing trips, night fishing with overhead LED lighting, and an all-inclusive Blast and Cast package combining duck hunting, fishing, meals, and lodging. The fishing trips serve anglers visiting the Coastal Bend and Laguna Madre, including those vacationing in Corpus Christi.

The business traces its roots to the Pace family’s longstanding fishing tradition around King Ranch Shoreline.
