Why fish with Steve?
No other local guide on Lake Grapevine or Lake Lewisville brings this level of experience and local knowledge. Steve is especially known for his patience with kids, first-timers, and beginners. Many guests catch the biggest fish of their life on their very first trip out with him. Whether it's a family outing, a father-son trip, a first-time fishing adventure, or a group of friends, Steve tailors the day to who's on the boat.
On the water, you'll typically drift and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle, depending on what's biting that day.
Captain Steve runs a 21' Ranger bass boat, comfortably fitting up to 4 passengers. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are all provided. Just show up ready to fish!
Before your trip:
- A local fishing license is required for everyone in your group (available online, or ask Steve for guidance)
- Kids must wear a life vest — let us know ages/sizes ahead of time so the right size is on board
- Bring bottled water, sunglasses, and non-spray sunscreen
- Feel free to bring snacks or other drinks (just ask) — alcohol is fine in moderation
- Some species may be protected or require a tag to keep — Steve will let you know what's in play that day
Ready for a day you'll actually be talking about afterward? Book your trip with Captain Steve today.

I have gone a few charters now and i would rate this towards the top. Captain Steve has a wealth of knowledge and put us on a full afternoon of non stop fishing. we oroginally booked the trip for Lake Lewisville but got a call from the capt due to weather the fishing would be better at Grapevine and that we needed to start earlier for the bite. Glad we took his advice and pivoted, day started hitting a few spots then when we got to the 3rd spot, it was on! All 4 of us were consistently catching fish and landed a plenty big ones and my buddy got on a giant catfish. So clearly the fishing was great and his knowledge is too notch, what really aet him apart was him, man had me and my buddies laughing the whole time! Highly recommend.

It helps when you have four good fisherman like yourselves. Enjoyed it y’all come back again. Thanks, Steve.
My partner and I had a great time fishing with Steve. Communication beforehand was smooth, and he was very easy to chat with during the trip. I had almost no experience fishing, whereas my partner did, and Steve did an excellent job catering to both of our needs. We caught several small bass, and a large ~40 lb catfish. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to go on the lake and have a great time fishing without dealing with the hassle and logistics of driving around and dealing with gear.

Our day with Captain Steve was nothing short of amazing. We'll definitely be scheduling more trips with him in the future. The trip was a b-day gift for my 15 yr old grandson. Within 10 minutes of leaving the dock, we had the first one in the boat. Steve's expirence shines through in everything from gear prep, local lake knowledge, and professionalism. He took 3 novice fishermen and had us landing bass like we'd been doing it for years. When the bass stopped biting, we switched to catfish. A little slower, but instead of watching the clock, Steve was determined to get each of us on a big one before we left even if it meant staying out for an exta hour. My grandson, who is usually pretty low key, couldn't stop talking about the trip the fish, everything for the entire 2hr trip home.
We had an awesome time with Steve on this fishing trip! The service was outstanding from start to finish, and our guide was knowledgeable, patient, and made sure we stayed on fish all day. We caught plenty of fish, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The best part was watching my two kids, who had no fishing experience, leave the trip smiling, excited, and full of confidence. The guide took the time to teach them, encourage them, and made sure they both had an incredible experience. We made memories that will last a lifetime, and I can’t recommend this trip enough!

My family had a blast. My 8 yr old daughter’s first experience on a boat, Steve made it very fun and comfortable for her. He really brought the “fisherman” out of her! It was good conversation and relaxed fishing. I enjoyed just being able to relax on the boat. My son was able to reel some fish in also. Both kids caught in the double digits! They enjoyed it so much. He’s knows where to find them and catch them for sure! If you’re looking for a great guide to catch fish and want a good time I’d suggest booking with Steve.
