I have been fishing Lake Texoma for 35 years and a full time guide running ~150 trips per year for 6 years. For me, it can't be a 'job' since fishing is my passion and I enjoy sharing that passion with others of all skill & experience levels. I own two 23' Falcon Striper Deluxe with high end electronics and trolling motor. All of our fishing tackle is top of the line TFO rods, Pflueger & Pro Qualifier reels and Power Pro Slick fishing line.

    10/10 Guide & Outing!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had a great day on the lake with Captain Tim! He was everything you could want in a guide: friendly, genuine, patient, funny and knowledgeable! He knew everything from the best place to find last minute fishing licenses on a Sunday to different island names and bird species to local restaurants to all the best spots to help us bring home 6 fish. We had two 10yo kids with us, one of whom had never been on a boat or fishing before. She was casting like a pro after a few tries and caught 3 fish (2 completely on her own). Tim was very calm and patient with the kids and both girls really felt comfortable with his guidance. He even asked if we’d like to bring the kids out to a secluded beach to swim in the lake for a little bit and they had an absolute blast - it was a perfect ending to our 1/2day (4hr) boat trip! By the end of the trip we felt like old friends. We would highly recommend Tim’s services and are already referring him to friends.

    Thanks so much! Really enjoyed having you and your family out. The girls were great and so glad they had a great time! Looking forward to next time when the fishing conditions improve! It was certainly a beautiful day on the lake and great fun. Thanks again! Cap'n Tim

    Fishing trip with captain Tim

    Half Day Trip (AM)

    With the conditions of the water, I was worried we wouldn’t have a good time. But captain Tim came in clutch. He was able to find not only where the fish were but came up with an excellent vision on getting them to bite. We ended up with over 20 catches when the other guides in the area were reporting 3-10 catches. Captain Tim is definitely who I’m going to for my next fishing trip at Lake Texoma!

    Cap’n Tim for the WIN

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 4 adults

    We had a great experience with Cap’n Tim. He was kind, educational, got us on a ton of fish, and made it all a great experience. Tim had incredible rods and tackle and a nice boat. All 4 of us ended up limiting out. Fantastic day with the best guide you can get!

    Response from Captain

    Thanks Brad! I had a great time with you guys. You have a great crew!
