Frequently Asked Questions

Still not sure what to do?

What do I need to bring?
All you need is your fishing license if you’re 17 years of age and older. All persons under 17 years of age, whether Texas residents or non-residents, are exempt from license requirements.

Do I need to bring my rod and reel?
I furnish all fishing equipment and bait. There will even be soft drink and water on board for you. Of course if you have a favorite rod and reel, you are welcome to bring it.

I’ve never fished before; will there be a learning curve?
The method we will mostly be fishing is vertical jigging. Where you drop the bait straight down and move the rod up and down. The falling of the bait will trigger a bite. It’s the easiest method of fishing and fun. I’ve many clients that bring along their 8 years old and able to catch fish one after another using this method.

I do not know how to clean my fish; who will clean my catch?
This is a 100% service guide trip. I will clean all your catch and put it in a bag ready for you to cook at home. Just bring a cooler so you can bring your catch home.

Is tipping required or optional?
Tipping is always optional, but this is a full service fishing trip. I work hard to make sure you and your guest had a successful fishing trip. I'll even unhook and clean all your catches at the dock; ready in a bag for you to cook at home. If you feel like you had a great time and my service met your expectation and want to show your appreciation.

How do you always know there fish at a specific location?
It’s my job to know. I normally scout beforehand and mark them so when it’s time to take my clients fishing. They will have a productive day.

What will we be fishing for?
White Bass, striper, catfish, crappie and Hybrid Striper. Some of these species can be depending on the lake we will be fishing.

Is bass fishing a year round thing?
Yes. When it’s getting cold. We will be catching them using method call dead stick.

What is dead stick fishing?
It’s very much like vertical jigging, but it is a presentation that allows the soft plastic to rest motionless and barely moving. During the cold month, when the water temperature drop too low is when we use this presentation.

How many fish can I keep?
It’s depending on the type of fish we catches. White bass: 25, Hybrid/Striper: 5, Crappie: 25.


I fished all my life, what can I learn from you that I already don’t know?
Many of my clients are fishermen themselves. Bass fishing is very different than many other species. They are always on the move. I can show you a hotspot, but doesn’t mean they will be there the next time you come back. You will learn what to look for and type of technique to use depending on the season. You can find and lock on a big school of fish, but if you are using the wrong technique and lure, they will not bite. You will learn how to read and use your fishfinder. You can have the most expensive equipment, but if you do not know how to use it. It will be just decoration. I encourage asking question during your trip with me. It’s not about just catching, but it’s about learning and getting as much knowledge as possible during your trip. Just let me know what you want to learn.


Best fishing tips and hotspot?
Hire a guide. Even if you do not hire me, Google and do your research to make the best guide selection you can. Not all guides are created equal. There are no hotspots that guarantee to always catch fish. The lake and fishing condition always changing and one method worked yesterday might not work today. But learning from a professional guide will benefit you for years to come. I’ve been doing this professionally for over 10 years and I am still learning something new every day. You can also register for my mailing list below to get update on the lake and fishing condition.


How many people can your boat hold?
My boat can hold up to 6 people comfortably. I do work with other guide that we partner for large group. If your group are more than 6 people, we will need to split the group. We still be fishing close together, just on different boat. I want you to have a great time and be as comfortable as possible. We can accommodate up to 24 people. Please call for additional informations on pricing regarding large group.


What is the different between educational and regular fishing trip? Is regular fishing trip only about catching and not educational?
The 2 trip are different because you can only do so much in a 4-5 hours period. Both trip you will be learning, but it's depending on what you want to focus on to make you a better fisherman.

On a regular fishing trip, we would be moving a lot and my focus is to make sure you are catching. The focus here will be bait presentation, type of lure, setup, lure color, depth of water and how to make the fish bite. You can be on a big school of fish, but if your presentaion is wrong, nothing will bite. You will still learn how to use your electronic, but not as in depth as a educational trip.

On a educational trip, the primary focus is to teach you how to configure, read and use your Lowrance. Finding fish on side imaging can be difficult if your Lowrance is not setup correctly and you can not tell what is showing on the screen. You will know how to tell and identify baitfish vs game fish. You will learn how to navigate the lake and hidden danger under the water. This trip we will still be fishing but not focus on catching.
