Species like Largemouth Bass, Spotted Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Striped Bass, Crappie, and more are in the cards if you cast your line at the right time of year. For these species, you're likely to use light tackle.
You'll be fishing aboard a 19' Skeeter bass boat with space for 2 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures.
Before coming aboard, you will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. Don't forget to bring sunglasses and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

We had an absolutely fantastic guided fishing trip! Captain Aaron was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. The fishing was great, but what really made the day special was how much fun our whole family had, especially our son. He had an incredible time and will be talking about this trip for a long time! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Captain Aaron to anyone looking for a fun, memorable day on the water. We’ll definitely be back!
My Grandson and I booked a fishing Trip with Captain Aaron on March 15, 2026. We could not have been any Happier and pleased to have Aaron as our Fishing Guide. he was excellent. he taught us alot..we were at Lake Travis for 4 hrs, and it went by way to fast. we were busy reeling them in and finished the day off catching a 5 pound Large mouth bass. The proof of how well things went is when we got into the pickup and my Grandson told me he wanted to come back and have Aaron as our guide again. we will be back. thanks Aaron. FYI…when I was trying to find a fishing guide for Lake Travis, I did exactly what you are doing, reading reviews. it would have been a disservice for me not to have written a review on our experience. Aaron was truly a great fishing guide.
Thank you for the kind review Kenneth! It was my pleasure to take you guys out fishing.
Captain Aaron contacted me because the weather was not going to be great. My choice, i told him lets take our chances. We battled rain most of the trip. Regardless of the rain Capt. Aaron put us on the fish. We caught our first fish in less than 10 minutes, and ended up with over 30 fish total! What a great time! Capt. Aaron did not let the weather stand in the way of of a really awesome fishing trip! Damn Good guide does not justify the trip Capt. Aaron gave me. I will definitely being fishing with Capt . Aaron again and I highly recommend you do too!
Thanks Joe, it was a pleasure fishing with you!
It was my husband and I’s first time ever on a guided trip, weve fished for many years, but decided for our anniversary to check it out. We had such a great day! Aaron was very knowledgeable, considerate, and did everything he could to make sure our trip was worth it. Definitely was! Highly recommend, but yall dont book him out too crazy because we will definitely be back as well! 😂
Day was unexpectedly cold and windy, but the boat captain made it all into a very nice experience with a few adjustments to our plan. We caught 11 bass and the captain was great!
