S Padre Island Bayhouse - Bayfront, Fish-Dock! in South Padre Island

Puesta Del Sol Bayhouse.

This waterfront house is located on the bayside, just down the
street from Blackbeard's Restaurant. The property has a lighted
fishing pier. One of South Padre's best kept secrets is
that this is one of the best night fishing spots on the entire
island! (Guests have attested to this...) This is a great location
for a fishing getaway or family vacation! The spacious concrete
patio has fantastic views of the bay, and is ideal for a sunset
barbeque!

Upstairs/downstairs units are adjoined by an interior staircase and
can be rented separately or as one unit!See description of upstairs
and downstairs units below.

The fishing!: From the dock, you can catch trout, redfish, and
snook. At night, you can fish with live shrimp under the lights.
This is most effective when you can actually see the trout swimming
in and out of the lights. Redfish are usually caught at the dark
edges of the light or directly under the pier. Snook are usually
caught under the pier or around the pilings. The best way to fish
with live shrimp is to “free shrimp”, where you only tie a treble
hook to your line and nothing else, and let the shrimp swim freely
under the lights. You can also fish on the bottom with a lead
weight and shrimp, finger mullet, or live croaker. This is a great
way to catch redfish or occasionally black drum. The best time to
catch trout under the lights is when the tide is coming in strong.
The house is right on a channel, and schools of trout move through
the channel with the rising or falling tide. I have
been told that fishing on the bottom works well sometimes during the
middle of the day.

Wheelchair accessiblity:
My wife has an uncle who is confined to a wheelchair, and uses the bayhouse
downstairs regularly. The front door to the downstairs has an approximate
4" step up from the asphalt. The sliding glass door to the bayside of the
downstairs has two sets of sliding glass door tracks, but no steps or change
in floor level. The fishing pier is two steps down (approx 6" each) from
the concrete paving and seawall. I should note that although my wife's uncle
regularly comes to fish, he always has assistance, especially to get up and
down from the fishing pier.

The biggest concern might be the bathroom downstairs. Although it does have
a walk-in shower and no tub, it is a bit small and would most likely not fit
a wheelchair.
