Randal Frisbie is a licensed professional fishing guide and local tournament angler who lives on the North Shore of Lake Travis. Randal has been providing guided fishing trips and charter services and fishing several local tournaments and tournament trails since 2012. Whether you’re new to fishing and want to learn more about techniques or a seasoned angler wanting to learn the ropes of tournament fishing, Randal can show you how to break down the lake and find fish.

Take advantage of a unique opportunity to discover the rich waters of central Texas. Explore a number of different Highland Lakes or power plant reservoirs, as you go after some of the nation’s most prized inshore fish. Whether you’re looking for that trophy catch on the fly, or you want to test the water and see how you like it – Captain Randal Frisbie is here for you.

Capt. Randal runs half-day and full-day trips on Lake Austin, Lake Travis, Lake LBJ, and Decker Lake, while fishing on Lake Bastrop and Fayette County Reservoir is for full-day trips only.

Each trip aboard the 20’ Nitro Z-20 bass boat is personalized to your desires. Built in 2019, this modern vessel comes fitted with all the latest navigational equipment to get you to the fishing hot spots. Light and agile, she’s a boat adept at getting you through even the trickiest of waters. You’ll fish spots that no others manage to, thanks to the wireless trolling motor.

Head out at dawn to catch the first bite of the day, or work your way around these scenic lakes during the afternoon and watch the sunset as you cast away. Try bottom fishing, jigging, or use popping corks to attract the bite of exciting and delicious bass.

Captain Randal knew exactly where to take us on the hot August morning that we were able to take our grandson. He is a wonderful teacher. It was a great morning. I’d highly recommend him for any skill level. Great boat and equipment.

After developing a passion for fishing with his family and friends, Captain Randal decided to share his enthusiasm with others and began teaching people how to fish. A licensed captain since 2012, he loves to get out on the water at least a few times a day, and running charters is the perfect excuse. He's just as happy taking out groups of experienced anglers looking for that prized catch as he is teaching kids to fish. With many first, second, and third place prizes in the Texas Tournament Zone and Media Bass competitions over the years, he's just the guy to get you filling the boat with Bass!
