When you're looking for a perfect weekend getaway with your friends and family, booking a fishing guide at Lake Grapevine is one of the best ways to spend your time. Just a 40-minute drive from Dallas and Fort Worth, you'll find yourself on a gorgeous shoreline, surrounded by waters where the fishing keeps going year round. With enough knowledgeable guides in the area, even novices can pick up a rod and catch some lunch.
Lake Grapevine is smaller than other lakes in the area, but rivals them when it comes to fishing action. You can go after several types of Bass, such as White, Hybrid, Striped, and mainly Largemouth. There's also a surprising amount of Blue Catfish that love the lake's structure, especially around the dam area. If catfishing is your thing, you can also catch Channel and Flathead Catfish here. Last but not least, catch tasty Crappie that love to swim near boat houses.
If you're taking a trip with your kids, a half day trip may be just what you need. Most anglers offer both morning and afternoon options, so you just need to decide what time fits better for you. An eight-hour trip will give you enough time to improve your game by the end of the day and maybe even catch a trophy-sized fish.
For your fishing trip at Grapevine Lake you only need to purchase a freshwater license. Your equipment is covered by your guide and most of them will clean your catch free of charge. After your trip, enjoy the catch in one of the lake's restaurants.
