What types of striped bass fishing trips are common in Texas?

Lake fishing is the most popular type of fishing for striped bass in Texas as well as river fishing.

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

How much does a Texas striped bass fishing trip cost?

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 striped bass fishing in Texas?

The most popular season for striped bass fishing in Texas is spring, and most anglers book their trips 40 days in advance.

    Capt. Elliot did beyond a great job. He is attentive and does not make you feel uncomfortable if you make a mistake. I went on a trip with him today with my 14yr old son and another customer. He made all of us feel at ease and just let us have a great time (except for when I accidentally nicked my son with the hook in his ear while casting.. sorry son). My son and I are already planning another trip with him. Had a blast Capt. See y’all soon. Highly recommended

    Captain Bryan was great--he took care of our family of 4. We caught a lot of fish, had a great time, and made some good memories. He cleaned and fileted them and we've got plenty of fish for dinner tonight and the next few weeks! Will definitely be going out with him again in the near future.
