What clients
are saying

“If you want an exciting outdoor experience in regarding to slamming red fish and speckled trout, smoking ducks & geese, or even night vision hog hunting, I highly recommend Run n Gun Adventures. I have experienced fishing, waterfowl and hog hunting with the most personable and reliable outfitters in Texas. On top of the spectacular outdoor adventures, the beautiful lodge is extremely accommodating and relaxing. You can enjoy hot meals in the kitchen while watching the football game or fishing at the pier below… Run n Gun Adventures is also more than just a first class outfitter, they are some of the most giving people I know on earth. They support charity organizations, such as Sky High for St. Jude who supports St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the RMH of Memphis every year! Run N Gun is always my personal top choice in outfitters.”

Brittney Hebert Franklin

“I took a group of buddies duck hunting with Run-N-Gun and it was unbelievable. My group, which included some guys who had never even been hunting before, had a great time. Our guides did whatever it took to put us on the ducks, and we shot plenty of them. I can’t wait to do it again next year.”

Clifton Karam

“Whether taking clients or your son on his first duck hunt, a person could not ask for a better experience. I have had a chance to hunt a lot of places over the years, RNG stands out!!!! “

Curt Dalton

“Daniel, just wanted to thank you again for such a great trip. From our first year hunting with you, to this year (our 2nd) Run N Gun has shown our group of hunters an irreplaceable experience in south Texas. This year we added a Crane hunt and a pig hunt. John, our guide for the Sandhill Crane hunt was so extensively knowledgeable about the tactics and strategies for hunting cranes i cannot wait to spend another hunt with him, we had flocks decoying like you cannot imagine as well as several fly-by candidates which all provided for an unforgettable hunt. Our other new guide this year was Poth, the night vision hog hunt guide. Poth, even as a young guide, showed the kind of professional approach and safety diligence that you would expect of a 20+year seasoned guide to be known for. Your guides once again delivered the finest of the good ol boys of Texas guide services anyone could ask for. I’ve been to south Texas in December with your guides 2 years in a row, and cannot wait to add year and years of experiences with y’all in south Texas. Thank you again for such a great trip. “

Andrew F. Dowdle

“I can’t say enough good about Caleb Rush. Great kid & young man. Great attitude, work ethic and personality. Second waterfowl hunt with him and Pepper and we just had a blast. I plan on scheduling a fishing trip, to include the wife and kids, for late February or early March and would love to have Caleb guide us on Matagorda Bay.”

Dan O.

“I’ve been hunting with Nick almost every year for 10 years. He consistently guides a great hunt every year with this year being the best yet! 60 bird day is tough to top but that’s what I said 8 years ago about a 55 bird hunt with him. I’ve stayed in both lodges and definitely recommend doing so. It really makes for a way better experience. They are doing it right and always bust their ass for their clients. Looking forward to next years trip!”

Robert Mitchel

Absolutely amazing!! 2nd year in a row!! The guides, the cook, the workers and everyone associated with it are the absolute best!! You tell them what ducks you want they will be sure to put you on them!! Already booked for next year!!

A COMPLETE
EXPERIENCE

RNG LODGE

Run-N-Gun Adventures has always excelled in offering successful hunting and fishing opportunities for our clients.  One thing we realized we were missing was a lodge allowing us to create a complete experience from the time you drive on our property to the time you leave. Our lodge offers a full service staff with many amenities.

Meals

Our chef and team provide a dining experience that our clients rave about. From meals made for hunts and fishing trips, to a full service - four course meal every evening at the lodge, you won't leave hungry.

Lodging

The RNG lodge offers plenty of places to eat, sleep, and hang out with the people you are hunting or fishing with. We do our very best to make sure each room is comfortable for every guest.

Other Amenities

Not far from the RNG lodge is a host of other amenities that you group can enjoy when you are not hunting, fishing, or hanging out at the lodge. From Golf to Museums to floating rivers, our lodge can be your hub for your activities.

All Pricing

One of the greatest things about the Texas Gulf coast is there are all kinds of hunting and fishing opportunities year round.  Run-N-Gun Adventures has worked hard over the years to create a large network that allows us to take advantage of everything that that this area of Texas has to offer.  The ultimate package for the outdoorsman or woman is to experience all of this in one trip

Most groups will morning goose or crane hunt on the coastal prairie and then bay duck hunt in the afternoon focused on redheads. Morning prairie duck hunts targeting a variety of different species is also an option, in this case an afternoon bay fishing trip or afternoon crane hunt would be done instead of the bay duck hunt. Night vision hog hunting is also an option that can be added to the package. We can tailor a package to fit any groups needs, these are just examples to give you a starting point. No group is to big or small, so contact us and we’ll start lining out the details for a trip you won’t soon forget, and most likely be scheduling again! Don’t forget to ask us about our feather & leather package! Teal hunt in the morning, and alligator hunt in the afternoon!

Bay Fishing Pricing

All pricing includes one night lodging with all meals and a day (6 to 7 hours).

Wade fishing with bait during the summer months is how we originally established a name for ourselves in the mid-late 2000’s!  Over the years we have continued to excel in wading with both bait and lures year around.   We also have perfected our skills in drift/boat fishing since so many clients like to stay in the boat.  

Great boxes of fish can be caught from the boat throughout the year for those not interested in wading. Fishing with a popping cork and shrimp or bouncing soft plastics off the bottom is usually the ticket to filling the box while fishing from the boat.

Matagorda Bay Complex is a trophy trout destination that rivals even the best fisheries and has been arguably the best in the World since 2017 for trout over 25″.  In 2019 our boats released an astounding 693 trout that were over the 25″ mark with 9 going over the prestigious 30″ barrier.  Our pictures speak for themselves on our various social media outlets(Facebook & Instagram)

Teal Hunt

The 16 day teal season that takes place in September is the first chance wing shooters get to knock off the rust on live birds. The Texas Coastal Prairie is the bottleneck for teal migrating south for the winter. If you’re looking to test your marksmanship, then coming down to chase the “rice rockets” is a must.

Duck Hunt

Duck hunts will take place on flooded rice fields, flooded millet ponds, flooded moist soil management ponds, flooded fallow fields, or managed wetland projects. Our goal when we initial got into waterfowl hunting was to make a name for ourselves for running quality hunts not quantity of hunts. We hunt a variety of different ways including pit blinds, laydown blinds, Avian A-frame blinds and a few stationary blinds as well. Since we are normally hunting wintering birds, being mobile and able to set up right on the ‘X’ is key. Typical bags will include pintail, teal, gadwall, wigeon, shoveler and depending on the weather the occasional canvasback or mallard. In addition, public bay hunting is available for clients interested in coastal species targeting redheads and could also include blue bills and pintails. It’s hard to beat large groups of redheads landing in the decoys as the sun is setting on Matagorda Bay.

crane hunt

Crane hunts will normally take place in rice, plowed ground, pasture land, winter wheat fields or anywhere we find them feeding. Nicknamed the “ribeye of the sky” they make for excellent table fare! Concealment is key for harvesting these birds as they have very good eye sight. Being resourceful to the surroundings and using any cover or elevation change in the ground is a must.

goose hunt

Goose hunts will take place in rice, planted rye grass, winter wheat or plowed fields. A typical hunt will include a large sillosock spread of up to 1000+ soxs or 500+/- full body decoys. Specklebellies and snow geese are the target, but some years the lesser Canada geese will show up to provide bonus birds. It is also very common to shoot a handful of ducks while goose hunting. Intense management and letting the geese get comfortable on a property is vital to holding large concentrations of birds throughout a season. It is our philosophy to ensure quality hunting and insist on customer satisfaction.  Ecaller/conservation season has been very productive for us in recent seasons till mid-February for those interested in pulling the plugs and getting under big spins.

THERMAL/NIGHT VISION
HOG hunt pricing

Come down and join us on what is quickly becoming the most popular and exciting way to hunt hogs in Texas. Hogs are naturally a nocturnal animal, so we hunt them at night when using our night vision/thermal optic scopes mounted on our AR-15’s. With the cover of darkness, we’ll usually get groups within 50-100 yards of the hogs.

Once we are within range and everyone is set-up and ready, your group will let freedom ring. In other words, take’em! With access to over 25,000 acres of private property, including ranches and row crop land, we have plenty of ground to ensure that everyone will see hogs. A normal trip will begin by the group meeting the guide at the lodge and then following him out to the ranch. Once at the ranch, a safety meeting will take place followed by step-by-step instructions on how hunt/stalk. 

After everyone is comfortable with the gear and the property layout, we will load up and head out to start the hunt. While slowly driving through the property, the guide will be scanning for hogs with thermal spotting scope. Once he has located a group or a single boar, the stalk is on. Hogs number one survival instinct is smell. Having the wind direction in your favor is the most important part of a successful hunt. We currently have eight set-ups of night vision/thermal optic scopes mounted on AR-15’s and access to more for larger parties. The ideal group is 2-4 people, but we can handle larger groups if needed. Contact us for details on how we accommodate larger groups.

UPland Bird Hunts

Our upland hunts take place on our 500 acre upland preserve right across the street from the lodge.  We hunt behind well trained pointers, using crew UTVs to drive you right to the birds.  No walking necessary!  Each hunter is allotted 12 birds, and extra birds are available for purchase.  Our bird of choice is the chukar.  It is by far the sportiest pen raised bird available.  Chukars offer hunters exciting and challenging shots.  These birds also make for a fabulous table fare.
