Upcoming nearshore trip to Port Aransas

Upcoming nearshore trip to Port Aransas - 07/11/18 02:14 AM

I am coming down Thursday (7-12-2018) to Port Aransas from San Antonio for the day to do some nearshore snapper/ling/king fishing with a couple of my military friends. I have SCOURED every nook and cranny in every forum looking for GPS coordinates to oil rigs and any other structure that will hold fish. The only thing I found was TPWD's reefs which I noted the ones in my range. I am planning on purchasing any readily available maps that might help. Any insight/tips/coords would be greatly greatly appreciated. I will be staying pretty close in case the weather turns. Currently the wind and waves look awesome. I will be in a 20 foot aluminum flat bottom boat with a 115 yamaha 4 stroke and a 18 gallon fuel cell (will carry more). PM me if preferred.. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Yessir. I sent him a message yesterday through his website. I know the book wouldnt be delivered in time. I'm not sure of anywhere else I could buy it. Maybe he will respond today!

Or, for something easier to use but potentially less accurate.

Never mind, I thought that one had coordinates but now I don't see them so I must've been mistaken
