Javelina (Collared Pecarry) Hunt

Javelina hunting is first class in south Texas! It is bar none the best. Once a license has been obtained it allows hunters to harvest two Javalinas. There is no draw, the license is over the counter, and only forty dollars which is the recipe for a very affordable available hunt.  Javelinas are typically stalked on foot which often proves to be nothing short of spectacular. Weaving in and out of “senderos” crouching and crawling in heavy black brush and trying to steer clear from killer cacti make every javelina a stalk a story in itself. Our areas have little hunting pressure and we do a limited number of hunts annually to ensure our clients 100% satisfaction. We specialize in archery only hunts however rifle hunts are also available.

Minimum 4 hunters maximum 6

Trophy Alligator Gar Hunts
View more photos

Sheer Adrenalin! Are the two words that best describe a trophy alligator gar hunt. Slowly cruising through murky waters in search of a living dinosaur in a canopy of willows armed with a bow and arrow. Then around the next bend, a fish that you swear would give Moby Dick a fright is laying motionless beside a huge blown down log.

With a slow and steady movement you draw the bow as your guide quickly walks you through the critical moment taking aim and releasing. Answered by a massive splash you don’t know if you have the fish or the fish has YOU! So begins the controlled chaos. Hunting trophy alligator gars is an experience that everyone should have the privilege of enjoying.

Hunts are typically done by a 20’ custom built flat bottom boat during daylight hours or under halogen lights at night which are powered by an on board generator. Excursions are generally eight hours daily however this does not mean that you will be on the water eight hours you could be hunting much longer than that.

Sunscreen is imperative as the sun will be beating down on you coupled with the reflection off the water. Hunt location is entirely up to the guide’s choice as he has vast knowledge as to where the fish will be, at what time of year, and on which lake or river.

Upon arrival you must rent a car and go to the set location your guide has chosen near the lake/river you will be hunting. As per which lake/river you will be hunting Under the Sun will recommend your destination city.

Hunts begin March 15th and end the 15th of November, with the peak time being March 15th through June 30th.

Other species available while looking for your Alligator Gar Include:
Buffalo Carp (which can weigh in excess of 100lbs), Grass Carp (which can weigh in excess of 100lbs), Common Carp, Needle Nose Gar, Short Nose Gar, Spotted Gar, Hybrid Gar (Alligator/Needle Nose cross), Tilapia, and fresh water Drum

Dove Hunting

We have access to spectacular dove shooting in Texas. Conveniently located between Robstown and Kingsville there is plenty of accommodation nearby. We can accommodate up to 100 hunters in the irrigated fields at one time! Our limiting out success rate was spectacular earlier in the season, but we’re not trying to brag. Don’t forget that there are two seasons in south Texas one of which begins in September and the other in December.

This is a self-guided hunt. You bring your truck, pick your spot, and shoot at your leisure.  Even work your dog if you like.

You would book your dates prior to arrival with a deposit and we will have a representative ready to grant you access to the property. 

This is great affordable hunt for weekend getaway or just to hang out with your buddies. Make sure to bring plenty of shells because the action can be fast and furious!

Trophy Exotics

There is a great abundance of exotic wildlife in the state of Texas.
We at Under the Sun have great opportunities to harvest many of these animals. With over 30 species of game available and many of which are antlered it is no wonder Texas is considered “Little Africa”.

Several species of game are unfortunately not huntable anywhere else in the world nor their native habitat. Due to great management and vision Texas provides hunting opportunities for species that would have otherwise been either extinct or never to be hunted again.

Texas has done a great job at creating value for the game thus protecting them and their future. Many species such as the scimitar horned oryx, addax, barasingha, Arabian oryx, and many more have been ensured not only survival but also protection from sure extinction.

Exotics are a great way to add a bit of color to your trophy room or if you have the ever familiar post season blues it is surely the way to go.

Under the Sun charges a daily guide fee of $200.00 - $350 a day per hunter all inclusive. Then the appropriate trophy fee is allotted per exotic species that you harvest. Ask about our luxury accommodations. Perfect for that big client you would like to impress!
