Great experience from start to finish. Captain Wylie was very responsive when I was booked the trip. Answered all my questions and provided all the needed info. The boat was set up really well, and all the fishing gear was top notch. We had never went night fishing or bow fishing before, Wylie and Keanu gave us a demo on how things work and gave tips throughout. We hit a ton of great spot and had chances at 100's of fish. If we had better aim we could have had a boat load of fish. Solid night out on the water, couldn't have asked for a better experience or better captain. At the end our Uber bailed on us, Captain Wylie went out of his way and drove us back to Austin. Top notch experience!

My daughter and I took my 7 year old grandson. Wylie was awesome! We had never bow fished and really didn’t know what to expect. Wylie was very helpful and patient. My grandson is already talking about the next time. We had a great experience and would definitely recomend Wylie and bow fishing.

If you love adventure,wildlife .i would highly recommend going out you don’t have to fish .you will see more more varity then you ever new existed. Being out at night with a man that has passion for fish it is a completely different experience.if you don’t book a sightseeing or bow hunt with highly suspect it is your loss.

Capt. Wylie runs trips out of Burnet and Austin. These waters are known for Carp and Gar and he will show you how to catch them, with a bow and arrow. With years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
