GTB Outdoors Captain Gilbert Miller welcomes you to the Dallas-Fort Worth area to spend an enjoyable day on a lake. They offer you a friendly and proficient guide service and, if you are new to the world of angling, on-the-water instruction as well. That means if learning how to Bass fish is your desire, the captain can make that happen. He also offers new boat owners a crash course on how to operate their new boat and go through all the do’s and don’t. In the learn-how-to-fish, you will go over seasonal patterns, how to read electronics, bait selection with proper rigging, and all the basics up to advanced techniques.

Captain Gilbert is a HS fishing team coach and is well-versed in teaching and working with new anglers. GTB Outdoors’s service is unique in itself but can also be customized to your wishes.

Your trip will start on a 20’ Skeeter bass boat that can accommodate 2 guests. It is powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine and uses modern Lowrance GPS and fishfinder technology for safe and efficient movement on the water.

You and the captain will go to any lake in the DFW area to fish for Largemouth, Smallmouth, as well as Spotted Bass, all using light tackle. You will be releasing all the fish you catch and you can bring kids on your trip, as long as the small ones are accompanied by an adult. Also, keep in mind that alcohol and smoking are not allowed during the trip.

Captain Gilbert can provide you with rods, reels, and tackle, but you are free to bring your own if you want to. He will also cover you for lures and drinks, meaning you should only bring your licenses and something to eat.

GTB Outdoors invites you for a great day on the water, come aboard and have lots of fun chasing fish or learning about fishing!
