tournament headquarters for legendary waters
✦ ✦ ✦
Location. Access. Convenience.
The three things serious tournament organizers care about most — and we deliver all of them
Serious tournament organizers know the truth: location is everything. The finest rules, the most generous purse, the strongest field of anglers: none of it matters if participants are fighting logistics instead of fish.
The Landing sits on the Laguna Madre, the gateway to legendary Baffin Bay and Upper Laguna Madre waters where trophy speckled trout and redfish are the rule, not the exception. Your participants launch directly from the marina, fish world-class waters, and return to weigh-in facilities without navigating multiple locations or wasting precious fishing time on trailer logistics.
When lines are pulled, your awards celebration flows naturally into our event spaces with waterfront views of the same waters where those memories were made. Captain’s meetings, weigh-ins, catered dinners, and trophy presentations, all within walking distance. This isn’t just a tournament venue. This is headquarters for fishing excellence.

Access to Texas’ Most Legendary Waters
Generations of anglers have tested their skills in these waters — now your tournament joins the legacy
Baffin Bay
Five miles from your doorstep to one of Texas’ most famous trophy trout fisheries. Generations of anglers have tested their skills in these storied waters, where the Laguna Madre’s unique ecosystem produces remarkable fish that draw serious competitors from across the state and beyond.
Upper Laguna Madre
Vast flats, gin-clear water, and redfish that make anglers’ dreams come true. World-class sight fishing starts right from our marina, giving your tournament participants access to some of the most productive and visually stunning saltwater flats on the Gulf Coast.
Hypersaline Ecosystem
One of only six hypersaline lagoons on Earth creates unique conditions that produce remarkable fish. The Laguna Madre’s 3,000-year-old ecosystem, hosting 80% of Texas’ seagrass meadows, is a living engine of marine life that gives your tournament ecological significance alongside competitive excitement.
Year-Round Fishing
Texas coast fishing excels spring through fall, with winter opportunities for dedicated anglers. Whether your tournament targets the spring trout run, summer redfish flats action, or the legendary fall bite, we host tournaments across all seasons with consistently productive waters.

Proven Tournament Success
What organizers say after running their tournaments from our headquarters
“
We’ve been running this tournament for 12 years, and The Landing is by far the best venue we’ve used. The proximity to Baffin Bay can’t be beat, and having the weigh-in, awards, and lodging all in one place made everything smooth.
Captain Jim
Annual Charity Tournament Organizer
“
Our corporate fishing tournament needed to impress clients. The Landing delivered — world-class fishing access, professional facilities, and a celebration space that helped seal new business deals over trophy fish stories and cold drinks.
David R.
Corporate Events Manager
“
As tournament anglers, we know good water. Having headquarters this close to Baffin Bay and the Upper Laguna Madre gave our participants more fishing time and less travel headache. That’s everything.

Tournament Questions, Answered
The details that matter to tournament organizers
Ramp fees are included in tournament packages and vary based on boat count and duration. We’ll provide detailed, transparent pricing in your custom proposal so there are no surprises.
Yes — and most do. We offer discounted group rates for tournament participants, with early access for boat prep and pre-dawn departures. Waking up steps from the marina means more fishing time and less road time.
We have professional weigh-in station facilities with covered areas and photography zones. You’re welcome to bring your own certified scales or use our equipment — whatever your tournament rules require.
Texas coastal weather is generally favorable, but we build flexibility into every tournament booking. Weather delays can typically be accommodated — we work closely with you to adjust schedules as conditions require.
Absolutely. From pre-dawn tournament breakfast to celebratory awards dinner, our catering team covers every meal. We offer breakfast, lunch, dinner service, plus snack stations and beverages throughout tournament days.
Yes — sponsor visibility is critical for tournament success. We provide dedicated display areas throughout the property, recognition opportunities during awards ceremonies, and flexible placement options for banners and booth setups.
Approximately 5 miles by boat — about a 10-minute run from our marina to prime Baffin Bay waters. That’s more fishing time and less transit for your participants, which is exactly what serious tournament anglers want.
