What types of crappie fishing trips are common in Texas?

Lake fishing is the most popular type of fishing for crappie in Texas as well as river fishing, flats fishing, and inshore fishing.

The most common fishing techniques in Texas are light tackle fishing, artificial lure fishing, and bottom fishing but live bait fishing and trolling are popular as well.

How much does a Texas crappie fishing trip cost?

Prices for crappie in Texas can range anywhere from about $400 to $1,238, but the average price for a half day trip for crappie in Texas is $554. The average price for a full day trip for crappie in Texas is $1,460.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

What month is best for crappie fishing in Texas?

The most popular season for crappie fishing in Texas is spring, and most anglers book their trips 22 days in advance.

Do I need a Texas fishing license for crappie and what are the bag limits for crappie in Texas?

    I booked this trip for my husband and he loved it! His guide Cody was great, very communicative. My husband caught a lot of fish and had a lot of fun. Thanks Cody!

    Fantastic morning with Richard bringing in catfish by the dozens. Very helpful, informative, and easy to get along with. I highly recommend him for your next trip out on Lake Conroe.

    Trip: Half Day Lake Conroe

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great float trip! Our guides, Cody and Mitch were fantastic!! They were very knowledgeable of the river how to get us on fish. We had a beginner that had never fly fish before and Cody and Mitch were very patient with teaching him how to cast and catch fish on a fly rod. I would highly recommend these guys for fishing on the Brazos!

    Excellent fishing trip with Captain Richard. He is a very knowledgeable fishing guide with a great personality. We caught about 60 catfish in under 2 hours. He then gave us a boat tour of the Lake Conroe shoreline since it was our first time on the lake.
