About Your Trip

Head out with your pro guide, Todd, for an action-packed day of Bass fishing in Austin, TX! Lake Austin and Lake Travis are popular lakes for all kinds of water sports, and are also known for their lunker Largemouth Bass! Striped Bass can also be found in these lakes, and are a blast to catch on hard baits and soft plastics.

Your guide, Todd, is an expert Bass fisherman and has years of experience on these lakes. He'll provide you with all the gear—including rods, reels, and tackle—and tons of helpful tips to improve your presentation and bag a new personal best!

Todd can take up to 2 guests on these half-day adventures. You will be fishing aboard his Ranger 35v bass boat, which is suited to all your needs on Lake Travis or Lake Austin. She runs a 130-HP Evinrude engine, so you'll get off the dock and out to where the fish are in minutes.

All you need for this trip is your Texas freshwater fishing license, some snacks and drinks is you want 'em, and a good attitude! Get ready to whack some bass!
