About Your Trip

If you're looking to learn modern bass fishing while giving yourself a legitimate shot at the biggest bass of your life, this trip on Lake Ray Roberts is hard to beat. Whether you're brand new to bass fishing or already have plenty of time on the water, Tanner tailors each trip to your experience level and works hard to help you become a better angler while putting you around quality fish.

A major focus of these trips is using forward-facing sonar (LiveScope) to locate fish in real time. Rather than fishing blindly, you'll learn how to identify bass, position the boat, and make the right presentations based on what you're seeing on the screen. Tanner enjoys teaching clients not just where to fish, but why fish are positioned where they are so you can apply those lessons long after the trip is over.

Depending on the conditions, you'll fish a variety of proven techniques including Carolina rigs, deep-diving crankbaits, football jigs, oversized worms, and presentations for suspended and roaming bass. Every day is different, and Tanner adjusts the game plan to match the bite and give you the best opportunity for success.

You'll fish from a fully rigged Phoenix 921 bass boat equipped with a 19-inch LiveScope display, side imaging, down imaging, Power-Poles, Power-Pole brakes, comfortable seating, a cooler with ice, and everything needed for a productive day on the water.

Just bring your fishing license, drinks, snacks, and weather-appropriate clothing. Tanner provides the boat, tackle, equipment, and the knowledge to help you maximize your day on Lake Ray Roberts. Whether your goal is to sharpen your electronics skills, learn new techniques, or simply hook into a true Texas trophy bass, this trip delivers an outstanding opportunity.
