Perfect afternoon fishing trip!

Half Day Trip (PM) on July 14, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

Captain Jason took great care of us while on his boat. My wife and I took our 10 year old grandaughter on this trip and Captain Jason made sure she caught plenty of catfish. About the time late evening when the striper started turning on she caught at least a 50 lb channel cat. Captain Jason wanted to put us on the striper but I called “calf rope!” we were all worn out from catching catfish. Captain Jason cleaned our fish and headed back to the Lake Texoma RV Resort which is only 5 minutes from Captain Jason’s boat slip at Highport Marina. I also highly recommend Lake Texoma RV Resort.

2nd Trip

Half Day Trip (AM) on July 23, 2025 • 2 adults

This was our 2nd trip with captain Jason.  He informed us the striped bass fishing was off due to the spring flooding.  He put us on our the perfect fishing spot and we caught our limit of big healthy striped bass. This was my girlfriend’s second time fishing ( both with captain Jason ) and she caught two nice stripers on her own with no help which made our trip. Then we went drifting for catfish which was a blast with 6 nice eating sized catfish caught. We recommend booking a trip with captain Jason from Bucks fishing guide service.

Great fishing trip

Half Day Trip (AM) on July 19, 2025 • 4 adults

Me and my 3 fishing buddies had the best time fishing together. Our captain was knowledgeable about the lake and the fish. We learned a lot about the lake and its fish. We had such a great time and we told all our friends and family about it 🎉🙏👍
We all look forward to going out again with our captain.
Thanks for the memories 
Everyone loved the big catfish we caught with you 🎉👏👍🙏

Thanks again we truly had a great time together
