Took my buddy and Tanzania-based guide Dom out with Jake and we had a blast! Jake put us on a number of nice fish. Highlight of the trip was Jake marking a fish with his live scope and Dom and I watching on the livescope as it chased Dom's swimbait and gulped it up! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

Had some family in town for Easter and the spring bite did not disappoint. Jake had plenty of rods rigged up and got us dialed as soon as we figured out what they were hitting. Some nice fish, can't wait to get back out there! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

We had an epic time fishing with Jake as always. Got out there with my buddy Pat from StarterStory and we crushed it. It was Pat's first time fishing in a while but Jake put us on fish and the topwater bite was on. Will be back soon! – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

My buddy and I had an awesome time fishing with Kevin and Lee. This was our first time carp fishing and it didn't disappoint. These guys run a great program from setting up a nice camp (with fresh coffee) to cannonball launching multiple rods with their cornmeal balls that carp love. We had numerous bites on a quick trip and landed a giant! Kevin and Lee were first class handling the fish and got some great shots for us. – Jonathan with Captain Experiences

Had a super time with Jake. Took my kiddo and his best friend out for an afternoon on Lady Bird Lake. Jake is great with youngsters and took great joy when they had their first catch. Awesome guy, awesome boat, and an awesome experience. This is my second time out with Jake and I’ll be booking with him again soon!

We had an awesome trip with Captain John! He was an absolute pro and knew where to take us to find the schools. Even with less-than-perfect conditions, John put us right on top of the action. We caught a huge variety — stripers, white bass, drum, and some catfish! All six of us landed several fish and had a fantastic time out on the water. John filleted our catch at the dock, and we made ceviche the same day. Highly recommend booking with Captain John.

Had a blast out on the lake today with Aaron. We hooked three bass our first half hour and it only got better from there. Even though my wife and I have virtually no fishing experience, Aaron was very patient and instructive. We fished in several different spots, targeted a variety of catch and got a tour of Decker Lake in a fast boat. Great guy.
