Welcome to Run-n-Gun Adventures, introducing you to a new era of outfitting by incorporation of all aspects of the outdoors! If what we offer here is something you have never done before, not to worry, we can and will teach you how. Run-N-Gun Adventures is operated with heart racing enthusiasm and adrenaline pumping experiences.

When starting Run-N-Gun Adventures, I wanted to put together a premier group of young guides on the Texas Gulf Coast. In doing so, the guides had to not only be the best in their particular field, but also bring a certain level of excitement and enthusiasm with them on every trip they take. Customer satisfaction is something that we pride ourselves with here at Run-N-Gun Adventures. Almost every outfit or guide can put you on birds, fish, or other animals, but we take it a step further. We want our customers to experience the trip of a lifetime and want to come back before they ever leave. All of our trips take place on some of the top-notch property along the Texas Gulf Coast and with some of the best young guides Texas has to offer. We can handle anything from small parties to large corporate parties with every trip we offer. Give us a call or shoot me an e-mail today, and get your next adventure in the outdoors planned with Run-N-Gun Adventures!

We have two types of memberships available here at Third Coast: Individual and Group Memberships. We currently lease around 20,000 acres of rice, milo, corn, and 23 ponds from Katy to Matagorda.

This season we had 18 groups and around 25 individuals who took around 4500 ducks over the course of the regular season and around 1800 teal during the early season.

Group Memberships are a maximum of 8 paying members, 6 of which can hunt at one time. You will have access to all of the club properties, both Duck and Goose as well as early Teal and Dove hunting.

The second type of membership is the individual membership. It is similar to the group membership, although with less independance.

Guest privledges are available with each.

Interested parties are more than welcome to come see the properties we have to offer.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for more information.

Over 40 years fishing experience

Ozzie has lived in Bay City all his life, and he started fishing when he was 7. At that time, you admired a man that had a boat with a 70 horsepower motor. As he grew up, Ozzie spent as many weekends fishing in Matagorda as possible.  Ozzie bought his first boat in 1977 and has been fishing East and West Matagorda Bay ever since. He shrimped commercially in the late 70's  and early 80's, and has oystered East and West Matagorda Bay for 30 years.

"The Pelican"
Ozzie's friends gave him the nickname "Pelican" because he always catches fish when no one else can. Ozzie knows where the fish will be feeding, what bait works best, and when the fish will be biting.  Ozzie has lived up to the name Pelican.

Ozzie enjoys teaching anyone who wants to learn how to fish. He has extensive knowledge of the bay system and 44 years of fishing experience.  Articles about Ozzie have been published in Texas Parks and Wildlife and Heartland Magazine.  Ozzie has shared his fishing experience with people from all over the United States, and looks forward fishing with you.
