About Your Guide

An Austin, Texas native, Captain Jackie absolutely loves fishing the Austin area lakes. A natural fisherman, ever since he could cast a rod and reel he's had a talent for getting fish on the line for not only himself, but also his friends. His ability to instruct beginners inspired him to become a fishing guide. Captain Jackie seems to have a sixth sense when it comes to finding fish for his clients!
