Capt. Tyler with Lake Travis Fishing Guide offers all inclusive guided fishing trips in the Austin area. In business since 2017, Capt. Tyler is a full time guide and tournament angler and spends 250+ days annually on the water. Trips are offered on Lake Travis in Austin, TX. Lake Travis Fishing Guide is a premium fishing charter offering trips from a new fully loaded Phoenix 921 elite with a Mercury 300R, provides high end Shimano and Dobyn's rods combos and delivers an unparalleled level of professionalism and service.

About Capt. Tyler:
I grew up in San Diego and caught the fishing addiction at a young age. I spent every summer hanging out at the docks where my grandpa kept his sailboat, bumming rides to the local lakes whenever I could, and fishing for anything and everything I could catch. I grew up doing a lot of saltwater fishing too, but bass fishing, in particular competitive tournament fishing is my passion. I moved to Texas in 2010 to attend Baylor University, where I eventually became their collegiate bass fishing team's president. After graduating college I moved to Austin for a job in real estate, but soon realized being outdoors makes me a lot happier than sitting behind a computer. What began as a part time gig turned into a full time career with the support of my wonderful wife. Unlike a lot of the other guides in this area I do this full time and spend over 250 days a year on the water.

Fishing is my passion and I love sharing that with my clients. Something you'll find unique about my approach to guiding is that it's very educational. Not only will I put you on fish I will also teach you things like how to locate fish, why we are fishing certain areas, why we are throwing particular baits, how weather and lake conditions affect the bass etc. etc. I even offer a special trip I call my Coaching Trips, these trips are all about education and less about running my honey holes. If you're especially looking to learn message me for more info!

    Half Day Trip (PM) - Lake Travis on June 8, 2020 • 2 adults

    I booked a half day trip from my husband for his birthday and he was beyond impressed. My husband has some experience fishing and myself very little. Tyler was a very patient and knowledgeable guide, he had a very professional set up, very organized, taught my husband new techniques and information about the area. Tyler showed up on time and made sure we took full advantage of our time on the water. His boat was very nice, clean and comfortable. We will definitely book again and refer our friends and family. Thank you for allowing us such a great experience, we had a ton of fun and caught quite a few fish!

    Had a blast today on the water. Captain Tyler Torwick is the best of the best. He got us to all the best spots and my girlfriend and I were able to catch loads of fish and had a great time doing it. This is our second time fishing with Torwick’s services and we won’t hesitate to book another!

    Great Day of fishing with Captain Tyler

    Half Day Trip (AM) - Lake Travis on November 4, 2019 • 2 adults

    We booked a four hour trip with Captain Tyler on 11/4/19. I can say Captain Tyler was very prompt and professional the entire trip. We have nothing but great things to say about him. He made our trip very enjoyable. We talked the entire trip about anything and everything, which made the trip extra special. Very knowledgeable of the fish that inhabit Lake Travis. He is also very knowledgeable of the surroundings of the lake as well. Captain Tyler put us onto the fish which made for a great fishing trip. We highly recommend Captain Tyler to anyone. We thank you Captain Tyler for a wonderful time.

    Awesome fishing trip!

    Half Day Trip (PM) - Lake Travis on July 14, 2019

    My friend and I wanted to change it up for our girl's weekend and decided to try fishing! We both have gone fishing with our families in the past, but by no means are we experts, so hiring a fishing guide sounded perfect. Tyler was at the boat ramp early with the boat ready to go waiting for us at the dock. He even carried our cooler for us to the boat! (He already had bottled water in his cooler for us though!) Tyler recommended an evening trip on a lake called Lake Decker. Excellent recommendation! We both caught a bunch of fish and had a blast. I really didn't expect to catch a ton since neither of us were very experienced with fishing. But our captain had super nice fishing gear and set us up with lures that were easy to use. He taught us how to cast, retrieve the bait, and set the hook when we felt a bite. If you are a beginner he is the captain to book! We looked at the reviews for the other captains on here, but Tyler had the best and I can see why! We had an awesome time and will be back for sure.

    Awesome half day of fishing!! From start to finish it was a quality experience. His willingness to assist my grandson, his knowledge of the top spots, the high quality of boat and gear was second to none. We’ll definitely be back.

    Full Day Trip - Lake Travis on September 3, 2020 • 1 adult

    I booked a full day bass fishing trip. Tyler had me on the bass from the start early on a topwater then as the morning progressed we had our most of our action on a dropshot. Tyler is Very knowledgeable and willing to answer all the questions I had. I was very impressed with the amount of time he took to help me understand the basics of Sonar interpretation. I highly recommend his services

    Half Day fishing with Tyler on Lake Travis

    Half Day Trip (AM) - Lake Travis on March 14, 2020 • 3 adults

    My two Grandsons and I very much enjoyed our time on the lake with Tyler. He is extremely patient, courteous and his explanation of bass fishing techniques and where the fish would be during the pre-spawn cycle was very educational. Would highly recommend Tyler to anyone.

January fishing trip
Half Day Trip (AM) - Lake Travis on January 5, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

We had an amazing fishing trip with this captain, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This trip was a gift boat trip for my fiancé, and it turned out to be perfect for our whole family. The captain was extremely nice, patient, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything, shared stories about the area, helped us with all the equipment, and gave us the opportunity to try different fishing techniques and catch different types of fish. He was especially wonderful with our child — this was our kid’s very first fishing experience, and the captain was so patient and encouraging, which made it truly special. The boat itself was very nice, clean, and comfortable, which made the trip even more enjoyable. We felt relaxed and well taken care of the entire time. This was an unforgettable experience, and we would absolutely love to come back and fish with this captain again. Highly recommended👍

My name is Tyler Torwick, I have been fishing all my life and it is a true passion of mine. I grew up begging my parents for rides to the local lake back home in San Diego, CA, and it's been an addiction ever since. I moved to Texas to attend Baylor University where I really got into competitive Bass fishing. I was the president of the Baylor University Bass fishing team and competed in numerous collegiate tournament including qualifying for the FLW college series national championship. After graduating, I moved to Austin and have spent my time learning the local lakes and gaining the skill needed to guide on them. In addition to guiding I also fish several large tournament trails throughout central Texas. I have numerous wins and podium finishes on the lakes that I guide on! If you are looking to refine your skills as an angler, or just flat out catch fish, I can help!
