About Your Trip

For a lot of Texans, the Brazos river might evoke notions of urban, domesticated, and overcrowded water. Which for a lot of stretches on this river, might be true... But JD specializes in fishing a stretch of the Brazos that is all but inaccessible to the daily fishermen and remains a safe haven of sublime water & wildlife, beautiful cut-banks, and Giant Largemouth Bass!

JD has 4 private access points along the 20 mile stretch from PK Lake down to Farm to Market #4, that otherwise would take multiple days to float your way through. Instead JD invites you to come fish with him for half day 4 hour or full day 8 hour trip targeting that same incredible water in half the time!

JD will be rowing you down the river in his customized NRS Star fishing raft. Which provides a comfortable ride for 2 guests. Additional guests will be on a separate boat with another guide, but ya'll will stick together, and can mix and match who fishes with who as you drift along. Whilst floating through the slow pools as you move down the river you'll be hammering the banks with poppers looking to excite some big fish for some topwater action. But when a run or deep pool looks particularly tasty, JD will tie the boat up on the bank so ya'll can get out and hone in on the best water and the biggest fish!

The raft will be loaded up with all the necessary gear, water, and ice you'll need for the day and JD recommends bringing your favorite snacks, drinks, or even a light lunch, but the only thing you need to bring with you is a Texas freshwater fishing license, so don't forget that!
