Catch & Release Fishing Guide Service Belton Lake - Stillhouse Hollow Lake

  • EXPERIENCED - Guiding professionally for over 20 years on the lakes of Central Texas.

  • ACCESSIBLE - No middle men, no booking schemes – call me now to speak in person at 254.368.7411

  • FAMILY FRIENDLY - I welcome children and beginners. I run a "Rated G" boat when it comes to language and behavior

  • BANG FOR YOUR BUCK - We never wrap up early just because you caught a limit. You are paying for a half day or full day on the water; that's what you will get.

  • SONAR INTENSIVE - I am a marine sonar instructor and use only state-of-the-art sonar equipment to enhance your experience.

  • COACHING STYLE - I take a "crawl, walk, run" approach to the tactics I will have you using no matter where your starting point is.

  • IN TOUCH - I fish 180-220 trips per year, so I am on the water multiple times every week staying in touch with fish and bait locations.
