Cap'n Tim Guide Service
There's a fish with your name on it in Pottsboro and Cap'n Tim Guide Service will help you catch it!
Striped Bass, and more can be found in these waters if conditions are right. On these trips, it’s common to spin using light or heavy tackle.
Trips with Cap'n Tim Guide Service are open to the whole family, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
Your vessel for the day is a 23' Falcon Striper Deluxe with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures.
You will need to purchase a Texoma fishing license ($12) before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.
Don't leave home without sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. You are welcome to bring other drinks, snacks and a cooler. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on beautiful Lake Texoma with Cap'n Tim Guide Service!

10/10 Guide & Outing!
We had a great day on the lake with Captain Tim! He was everything you could want in a guide: friendly, genuine, patient, funny and knowledgeable! He knew everything from the best place to find last minute fishing licenses on a Sunday to different island names and bird species to local restaurants to all the best spots to help us bring home 6 fish. We had two 10yo kids with us, one of whom had never been on a boat or fishing before. She was casting like a pro after a few tries and caught 3 fish (2 completely on her own). Tim was very calm and patient with the kids and both girls really felt comfortable with his guidance. He even asked if we’d like to bring the kids out to a secluded beach to swim in the lake for a little bit and they had an absolute blast - it was a perfect ending to our 1/2day (4hr) boat trip! By the end of the trip we felt like old friends. We would highly recommend Tim’s services and are already referring him to friends.

Fishing trip with captain Tim
With the conditions of the water, I was worried we wouldn’t have a good time. But captain Tim came in clutch. He was able to find not only where the fish were but came up with an excellent vision on getting them to bite. We ended up with over 20 catches when the other guides in the area were reporting 3-10 catches. Captain Tim is definitely who I’m going to for my next fishing trip at Lake Texoma!

We had a great experience with Cap’n Tim. He was kind, educational, got us on a ton of fish, and made it all a great experience. Tim had incredible rods and tackle and a nice boat. All 4 of us ended up limiting out. Fantastic day with the best guide you can get!
