About Your Trip

Float into the water with Kevin for an awesome 4 to 8-hour adventure in the Texas hill country! On this fly-fishing trip you'll be targeting Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout on the beautiful Guadalupe River.

The Guadalupe River is a perfect spot to fly fish for Trout without leaving Texas. It is listed as one of the 100 top trout streams in the United States, and is the southernmost trout fishery in the United States. Be ready to catch some Rainbow Trout, this river is known as a hot spot for them!

You'll be aboard a 14' Aire Raft drift boat designed for 2 anglers. These rafts are very stable and comfortable, and are great for getting through shallow water. Whether you're new to fly fishing or not, Kevin will surely show you some helpful tips. He has been guiding fly fishing trips for 20+ years and is a wildlife fanatic, so expect to get some bites!

Kevin will provide all rods, reels and tackle. He will even provide a tasty lunch for you, so all you need to bring is a valid Texas Fishing License. Enjoy your day out on the river with Kevin!

Kevin was fantastic! Super informative, very patient and treated us like kings. We couldn’t been happier with him as a guide. And he put us on fish and knows the River like the back of his hand. Don’t hesitate to book, you won’t be disappointed.

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.

Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.

Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
