The catfish are doing outstanding catching them in 12 to 24 feet of water around creek channels, structures.we are putting nice eaters and some ten plus pounds in the box. The crappie are starting to stack up on brush piles and bite good and putting some really nice ones in the box. And the hybrids are still ok but they will just get better as the water temperature drops more.

Another fun family trip on Lake Conroe today! 🎣😁 Had a dad, mom, and son on the boat today. Dad and son had very little fishing experience, and Mom had never fished before! Well, wouldn’t you know it, Mom ended up catching the BIG fish of the day at 5 pounds, 5 ounces! 😂🎣 The son now has a personal best of 3 pounds, 9 ounces to beat! And Dad, well, let’s just say he got out-fished today! 😂 We all lost count of how many fish they caught and threw back. Every fish was released to be caught another...

Today’s customers were a father and son. Dad brought a small cooler and said 15 catfish was all they needed to take home. Well, they got their 15 plus a couple more! 😁🎣 After putting over 50 cats back in the lake, they were getting a little bored with the catfish 😂, so for their last hour they were ready to give crappie fishing a try for their first time. With a little help, the son reeled in his very first crappie! 🎣😁 With the lake starting to get choppy, the son was beginning to feel a little uneasy, so...
It was a good day on Lake Conroe! 🎣

Had a father-and-son team out with me today for a half-day fishing trip! 🎣 They traveled all the way from England to experience some Texas fishing on Lake Conroe. Everything was new to them, and it was the first time either one of them had ever caught a catfish. We didn’t catch any monsters today, but to them, those catfish were plenty big! 😁 It was all catch-and-release, and they caught and released a bunch of those little rascals! 😂 Being a guide has its perks—you get to meet people from all over the world. 🇬🇧🎣🇺🇸 Thanks again, guys, for...

Today’s half-day customers were two cousins. I really enjoyed meeting them and spending time on the water with them. Both were retired from the Air Force, and they sure enjoyed cutting up and laughing! There were several firsts for them today: their first time on Lake Conroe and their first time fishing with LiveScope. We had a few missed opportunities and a couple that came off at the boat, but once they started getting the hang of how to trick those finicky crappie into biting, they put together a nice mess of fish. Minnows were the bait of choice today....

The gar numbers have been thick and awesome. No shortage. Gar fish and bowfishing has had plenty of action.

I enjoyed our time with Richard on the lake,and he was very accommodating to the two young men that I brought with me (a birthday gift). If the topic ever comes up with a friend/acquaintance,I would recommend Captain Experiences! Might do it again for crappie season!

Captain Kirk is the man. If you want to catch monsters and learn anything you want to know about these dinosaurs, there’s nowhere else to look. Have been fishing with Captain Kirk twice now and has been non-stop action both times.

We had a great time going out with Richard. The weather was not in favor of fishing. There was absolutely No wind. The lake was like glass. And the fish don’t bite when it’s like that. But that didn’t stop Richard from trying to get us on some hybrids. We finally resolved to catching catfish which we love. I highly recommend Richard. Great personality and very knowledgeable. He taught us some stuff we can use going forward. Thanks Richard for a wonderful outing.

Trip: Half Day Lake Conroe

My husband and 14-year-old son went out lake fishing with Ray and they had such a fantastic experience! My son especially had been really looking forward to the trip and Ray definitely didn’t disappoint. He worked so hard to make sure they had the best experience and most importantly, got them catching fish! They caught some great catfish and were both really pleased with what they managed to catch. Ray was incredibly kind, patient and helpful throughout, and really made the trip enjoyable for them both. They also loved getting to use all the amazing fishing equipment Ray had available, which made the experience even more special. They came back absolutely buzzing and haven’t stopped talking about it! A brilliant experience from start to finish and a real highlight of our holiday. We would definitely recommend Ray to anyone looking for a great fishing trip. Thank you so much, Ray!

Ray was great! Very accommodating of all our requests & went above & beyond to make sure we were satisfied & offered several times to keep us fishing until we were ready to come in. Put us on fish & made sure to teach us how to improve. Boat, equipment and electronics all first class. Highly recommend.

Had a fishing day with Kirk. Didn’t do well at first.Lost 3 or 4 fish.But Kirk was patient and I began to learn. By the end I caught 3 and improved my technique. Thanks Kirk!

Super fun trip. We booked knowing fully well that it was cold, not fishing season, etc. and still managed to catch a good amount of large catfish. Captain DJ was a great time, professional, and even let us stay out on the water a little longer than we had booked in case we were able to catch some extra fish… Thank you DJ for showing my friends and I a great time!!!
