Milton is well known in Texas for his ability to find, hook, and land some absolutely massive Alligator Gar, which can get up to 200 pounds and over six feet long!

Milton has a whole cache of secret spots up and down the Trinity, so if it's not happening in your current spot, he'll move you to the next one until the fish start biting! You'll be out there on Milton's 20' G3 skiff. She has a shallow draft to let you in to every part of the river, and has a 150HP Yamaha to get you wherever you want to go. Milton will provide all the rods, reels, leaders, bait, snacks and drinks for your trip. All you're required to bring is your Texas All Water License.
