About Your Trip

As a retired Tour Pro on the BASS, MLF, and FLW tours, im now residing locally in San Antonio area, and offering guide Trips on Canyon Lake!

My Boat is on a hoist in a slip full-time there now!

I can take up to 3 guests but 2 is preferred in my 2024 21' CAYMAS Bass Boat, powered by my Mercury 250 Pro XS motor.

Its a professional tour boat, fully loaded with the latest Garmin electronics, trolling Motor, power poles, etc!

Im offering TWO distinct fishing experiences in my guide Trips! The first is a traditional day on the lake to pursue a multitude of species on any techniques effective for that particular time!!...Essentially just getting out and CATCHING THEM!

The 2nd option is an instructional, "lure or technique specific" experience guide trip! These are popular for competitive Bass anglers, or Very experienced Bass aficionados who want to learn more/perfect a specific way of targeting Bass! An example of these days would be a full instructional "Swimbait" day, "sightfishing" for spawning Bass (spring time), etc,.

These particular Trips are much more informative and instructional and the client is utilizing my expertise from 30+ of competitive angling at the highest level!

These particular Trips have a "day rate" of $1,200 and I quite exclusive to advanced Bass anglers!!
