Welcome to Bass Camp
Nestled in the piney woods of Lake Bastrop, Redemptional Fishing & Outdoors isn't a standard fishing charter—it’s an elite outdoor academy. Bastrop’s highly productive power-plant reservoir makes it the ultimate classroom for high-action bass fishing.
Whether you're a dad wanting to unplug and teach your kids the fundamentals, a boat owner tired of guessing, or a competitive angler seeking advanced tournament skills, Capt. Matthew Hathaway provides a structured, tier-based education. We don’t just take you for a boat ride; we teach you how to hunt.
The Curriculum
Choose the level of instruction you need:
The Basics: Low-pressure, hands-on instruction covering casting and bait selection. Perfect for families getting kids off screens.
Intermediate Tech: For anglers wanting to know the "why." Master seasonal transitions, pattern building, and Garmin electronics to eliminate dead water.
VIP Tournament Prep: For serious competitors. Elite multi-day packages featuring simulated tournaments, drone/camera media production, and premium campfire BBQ debriefs.
Vessel & Gear
Step aboard a 19’ Lund Bass boat rigorously rigged as a tactical training vessel. Outfitted with top-tier Garmin electronics and a silent trolling motor. Premium rods and tournament-grade tackle are provided (you are also welcome to bring your own gear so we can dial in your personal setups).
The Fishery
We exclusively hunt Largemouth Bass. We operate a strict 100% Catch & Release policy for bass to preserve this elite fishery.
Make it a Weekend
Lake Bastrop features incredible LCRA parks (North Shore & South Shore) with lakeside cabins and campsites. Book a cabin, book your class with us, and turn your trip into an unplugged outfitter retreat.
Grab your fishing license, step aboard, and let’s elevate your game!

Matt showed us a great time with lots of Bass, lots of laughs and showed lots of patience as we learned his technique and tips. Lots of action with everyone of us catching fish and lots of them. Thanks for the great day Matt!
Thanks y’all! Hope to see you again someday!

Matthew was a terrific guide. He was a great teacher for my son. He was patient and very encouraging. Matthew was pleasant to be around and very family-friendly. He knows the water well and tried very hard to get us in the right place. We will definitely book another tour with him.
Thanks for the review! It was a fun time!
