About Your Trip

Discover Texas' Exclusive Guided Bowfishing Adventures!

Welcome to the ultimate destination for bowfishing in the heart of Texas! Whether you’re planning an exhilarating family outing or an extraordinary corporate adventure, we offer guided bowfishing trips tailored to all experience levels.

I’m James, the proud owner. We launched this venture in 2018 with a singular vision: to deliver an exceptional experience that fulfills our customers' desires and creates unforgettable bowfishing memories! We recognized the importance of
having one of the finest bowfishing boats in the industry. That’s when we embarked on the design and construction of our custom bowfishing boat.

Here are a few highlights of our remarkable boat:
- Spacious Design: We prioritized ample walking space with a flush deck, eliminating the tripping hazards commonly found on other boats.
- Stability: Measuring 22 feet in length and 8 feet in width, our boat ensures a stable and comfortable outing.
- Powerful Performance: Equipped with a 225 Mercury Pro XS, we guarantee a swift return to the ramp, even after an exciting night of shooting a ton of fish!

No prior experience is necessary—our expert guides will provide you with everything you need for an unforgettable day on the water. We supply all the essential equipment; the only requirement is a current Texas fishing license. Our primary fishing locations include Lake Granbury, Lake Whitney, Possum Kingdom, Lake Grapevine.

What to Bring:
- A cooler filled with your favorite drinks and snacks (Alcoholic beverages are welcome!)
- Your brightest smile!

We eagerly await the opportunity to host you. Prepare to create lasting memories as you reel in impressive catches amidst the breathtaking Texas landscape!

Hello! I’m James. After graduating from Tarleton State University, I embarked on this exciting journey, and we are now celebrating our sixth year in business. Owning my own guiding service has always been a dream of mine, though I initially didn’t know what type of guiding I would pursue. With over 18 years of bowfishing experience under my belt, I can confidently say that this passion drives everything we do.

When you join us on one of our trips, my
goal is to ensure you leave with the knowledge and confidence to shoot a bow effectively by the end of the day. I am dedicated to providing you with a memorable experience, which is why I minimize my phone usage during our guided trips. The only time you’ll see me on my phone is to capture the incredible moments of your adventure!

I look forward to sharing this thrilling experience with you!

Crawfish
How did you get started guiding?
Always wanted to have my own guide service growing up. I thought it was the coolest thing ever when I was around 10 years old that people were making a living as being a guide. After college I found a boat that was big enough for a bowfishing guide service and I build the boat from the ground up then started working on the business side of things. Now I am going on year 6 of owning this business and I still love it as i did from day 1.
What makes you different from other guides?
Always keeping an open mind and listening to what the customers are saying. One thing I make sure to do it to never be on my phone during a guided trip, I want to give my full attention to the customer!

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
