Texas Pelagics

"It's Not Just Birding, It's and Adventure"

TABLE 5): DEEP SEA “FISHING PELAGICS” FROM 2013 – 2018

Captain Jon McIntyre works on multi-day fishing trips aboard the Kingfisher and other boats from Deep Sea Headquarters in Port Aransas. While these are not dedicated pelagic birding trips Jon is a skilled pelagic birder who has found many interesting and rare pelagic seabirds during these fishing trips that routinely take him to the deep-water offshore Gulf of Mexico. He undoubtably spends way more time offshore than any other Texas pelagic birders, and has become a valuable source of information. He also captains the trips we run aboard the Kingfisher from Port Aransas.

The table below summarizes the information that Jon has passed along to me about his pelagic birding/fishing trips.
