Spend five days and four nights out on Devil's River fishing for Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass with your guide, Shane. Shane will share his intimate knowledge of fishing and paddle craft, as he provides you with the opportunity to fish for a wide variety of Texas' most popular fresh water game fish.
The Devil's River is one of the best Smallmouth Bass fisheries in Texas, and although it's an intense paddle, it's absolutely worth it.

You'll spend all day fishing, and enjoy a camp every night complete with meals and a cozy fire. Shane will take care of all of the gear and set up for camps and meals. The trip will end by once again meeting up with JD to take you back.
All of Shane's kayaks are also completely customized for fishing, with special fishing rigs and seats to keep you comfortable for the entire trip. He also has canoes that can be used if preferred, if there's a large group with extra gear, or if there are kids who aren't quite ready for the kayak.
All you need is a Texas fishing license, clothing, toiletries, and a bed roll, and Shane will be ready to take you on an adventure!
