Belton, TX, United States

Be at one with nature in the peaceful surroundings of Lake Belton. T.C. Fishing Guide Service offers excellent fishing opportunities in central Texas, specializing in catching Hybrid Striper and White Bass. Your trip will be led by Captain Tommy Cochran, a highly knowledgeable local angler who loves nothing more than teaching his tried and true techniques for catching these fish.

Take a trip with Tommy, and you will be fishing from a very spacious 22’ Blue Wave center console, giving you unrestricted views of the lake and plenty of space to fish and maneuver. Fitted with a 150 HP Evinrude E-Tec engine, as well as an anchoring system and an icebox, this boat is set up to provide you a smooth fishing experience, and has been specifically designed to fish these waters.

Fishing for Hybrid Striped Bass and White Bass in Lake Belton is an unforgettable experience, and all the equipment and lures you need for a productive and enjoyable trip are provided. Capt. Tommy will be at hand to help you troll, jig, or spin as you attempt to reel ‘em in.

This picturesque lake is located near Fort Hood and is easily accessible from Austin. Lodging is available in the nearby cities of Belton and Temple.

The peak fishing season is mid-February through May, although fishing can be very good year-round. Whatever the season, you’ll be in for a treat, with Capt. Tommy committed to looking after you and providing you with a great time.

T.C. Fishing Guide Service invites you to give Tommy a call – let’s go fishing!

Tommy is the best, you can't go wrong

VERIFIED

Took my 13 year old son out to hopefully catch some fish and get him interested in the sport. Beautiful day but extremely windy. The wind limited the areas due to the extreme chop (30mph gusts) but it didn't put a damper on the fishing! Tommy was able to get us consistently hooked up and my son had an absolute blast. We're already planning our next trip and will 100% be fishing with Tommy on our next outing in a month or so.

From start to finish Captain Tommy did an excellent job. Communication were great, his boat and equipment were top notch and he was lots of fun. He was very patient with a new fisherman we had on board, good sense of humor, and a lot of knowledge about the lake, fish and environment. He really knows the lake and worked very hard to get us on fish – and he did! We all highly recommend him.

Great Birthday Fishing Trip!

VERIFIED

I decided to surprise my fiancé for his birthday with a fishing trip today. I’ve never really fished before but he’s a fan so I booked a trip with Tommy. He was a wonderful guide and made the entire outing stress free. It was great to just show up with our cooler of waters and just have everything else ready to go. We had a great time and will be sure to book with Tommy again in the future!

Tommy worked hard and put us on a good group of fish. We caught whites and hybrids. 78 total! Tommy did all the work all we did was reel them in! I expect I’ll be booking with him again in the future.
