Book your next trip with Garrett Turner Fishing and find out what you're missing in East Texas fisheries, learn live scope details and how to read it.

There's no guarantee when you're fishing, but I will do what it takes to get you a limit and stock your freezer! It will help with some casting/fishing experience, but I will teach you some tips for success.

On these trips, it’s common to jig using light tackle, but when the bite is tough we will turn to live bait.

Your adventure begins aboard a 21' Skeeter bass boat with space for 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Garrett has rods and reels, wearable life jackets and tackle for you. Live bait is available!

Before coming aboard, it 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.

It's always wise to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, come aboard with Garrett Turner Fishing and get hooked!

Best Charter Ever!!!!
4 Hour Trip on June 28, 2026 • 2 adults

Captain Turner was an absolutely amazing captain! He is extremely knowledgeable about fishing, fishing electronics, & boating. In addition, I have to say he was a total blast to hang out with as well! The guy went above and beyond in every regard possible. He made sure to take the extra step anywhere he could to make sure we had the very best fishing experience we possibly could have. Less than 15 minutes from the dock he already had us on fish and filling the cooler. In total we caught 30+ fish with Cap. Turner. He took care of everything from locating fish, teaching us how to most effectively catch them, how to use the rods & reels, how to quickly interpret the electronics. If you book with him, he will ensure everything is taken care of so you can focus solely on catching and fighting the fish. He has multiple spots, relocates if needed, and knows exactly what to do to make sure you go home with a cooler full of fish. We managed to get a mixed bag with primarily Crappie, some Bass, and a catfish. He also filleted and cleaned our fish and made sure we left with lots of fish to fill the freezer! 100% would book again and recommend you do as well!

Yet Another Great Trip
4 Hour Trip on October 11, 2026 • 3 adults

Captain Garrett did a great job today putting us on the crappie on a day that they were being finicky with the bite. He did an awesome job helping my daughter with using a spinning reel and learning how to use the view finder to catch some good size crappie. He also made a good call on moving lakes because of the wind and kept the higher winds from scuttling the trip!

Dad's day out
4 Hour Trip on June 21, 2026 • 3 adults

It happened coincidentally that our trip with Garrett fell on Father's Day. Garrett took me and my two sons out and put us on the crappie today. My oldest, 31 years old, caught his first ever fish and it was a slab! His brother wasn't going to be outdone and caught a slab on his first catch today. Practically every crappie brought in was a slab. Captain Garrett knows his stuff and he was very focused on making sure we all had a good time. Looking forward to our next trip with him!

Great guide!!
4 Hour Trip on August 8, 2026 • 3 adults

Garrett was amazing this morning. The heat can make it difficult to catch Crappie right now, but he was patient with us and took us to several places, used different rods and made sure we were able to catch some keepers!! Great knowledge of the lake and positive, respectful attitude, too!! If we return in the fall, we will be booking with him again!

My son and I had a blast with Garrett. He was extremely nice, patient, had great equipment and put us on the fish. We asked a bunch of questions and he always took the time to explain what he was using, what he was doing, etc...was a great experience, can't recommend him enough!

    Garrett was a wonderful host on his boat and took us to the crappie. We were constantly pulling in crappie the entire 6 hours. We will definitely book with him again and recommend it to everyone.
