We had an incredible experience fishing with this guide! From the moment we got on the water, it was clear we were with an expert. He knew the lake like the back of his hand and put us right on the fish. His timing and knowledge were spot on—every spot we hit produced, and we stayed busy reeling them in the whole trip.

Even better, he was super laid-back and easy to talk to, which made the whole day feel relaxed and fun. It honestly couldn’t have gone better. And the highlight? My son landed a 20-pounder! Definitely a memory we’ll never forget. Can’t recommend him highly enough—everything was perfect.

Just wanted a day out on the water fishing from a boat. No stress. No carrying gear or worrying about forgetting stuff. Brought drinks and snacks and we were set. Captain Gary is just good people. My brother and I usually catfish…but when the catfish were not biting, Gary put us on to Sand Bass. What fun. Planning to go back when the Blue Cats are active.

If you’re looking for a laid-back, knowledgeable, and genuinely great fishing guide, look no further than Redneck Fishing on Lake Tawakoni. This guy is the real deal—an experienced fisherman who knows the lake like the back of his hand and is all about putting you on the fish.

We booked a six-hour trip with him, and from start to finish, he went above and beyond. He was flexible with our late start, made sure my wife and friend were comfortable, and wasted no time getting us on the fish. By the end of the trip, he had filleted and cleaned 10 to 15 pounds of fish for us, bagged them up, and did it all without expecting anything extra. That level of service is rare these days!

Beyond the fishing, Gary from Redneck Fishing is just an incredible person—full of stories, with a military background and a deep love for fishing and family. Spending the day with him felt like fishing with an old friend. His passion for the sport is unmatched, and he knows all the secret spots to ensure you don’t leave empty-handed.

If you want an honest, hardworking guide who will put you on the fish and treat you like family, book with Redneck Fishing. We’ll definitely be back!

Despite the wind, and the chop on the water, Captain Gary was able to put us on some quality fish! Family had a blast! We love hearing your stories, Gary. This was my second trip with Redneck Fishing Tours, and I can’t wait for the next one! God bless!
