Member since June 2024 Lake Dallas, United States
Background
Capt. Zachary Esch is your guide to an unforgettable fishing adventure. The crew will demonstrate techniques such as bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, or something unique to the area. The only way to learn is to join them on the water.
Techniques
I appreciate a wide variety of fishing styles. For guided trips we typically Jig and use live bait to produce numbers. When I'm not guiding I drift for catfish, flyfish for trout and panfish, and run trot lines.
