    Made my son's 12th birthday special!

    4 Hour Trip – White Bass (with Guy) • 2 adults • 1 child

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience with The Fishing Guy and his wife, Jackie! They went above and beyond to make my son’s 12th birthday truly special and unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, they were incredibly welcoming, patient, and accommodating, especially with making sure my son felt comfortable and excited the entire trip. The highlight of the day was watching my son reel in several firsts, including his very first crappie, white drum, and white bass! Their knowledge, guidance, and willingness to teach made all the difference, and you could tell they genuinely care about creating a great experience for their guests. If you’re looking for a guided fishing trip with great people who know their stuff and truly go the extra mile, I highly recommend The Fishing Guy!

    Night hybrid fishing • 2 adults

    Our hosts were incredible. They left no stone unturned to ensure that my son and I had a memorable experince. Not to mention, all the fillets that are in the freezer now. I would highly recommend if your in the Belton area looking to land some torpedos at the end of your hook.

    Mr Guy Coleman was a great Captain! This experience was great for me and three kids. Mr Guy was not only knowledgeable of all things fishing he was wonderful with my kids as they enjoyed the whole trip with him. We land some fish during our trip which made the trip more memorable as it was our first time fishing as a family and on a boat. I would recommend him to all my friends and especially family as Mr Guy Coleman is funny and enjoyable the whole time. Thank you again and will be returning for another trip.

I think this first time fisherman is hooked!!! He looked like a pro, even doubling up on white bass with the slab technique. What a great day! His limit caught by 10 a.m.
