Keeping it real guide service.

Weekend Half Day Trip–Private (AM)4 adults

Jacob was fantastic from the moment our crew showed up to the boat until we were walking away from the dock with our catch cleaned and in a bag. very attentive to making sure we were on fish and helping the young anglers every step of the way. It was a tough day for fishing and our count was low, but they were large fish and it wasnt from Jacobs lack of trying. I will recommend this guide service and definitely use them again.

    Great trip!

    Weekend Half Day Trip–Private (AM) • 7 adults

    Had an outstanding experience fishing with Jacob on Lake Texoma! This was my first time with a striper fishing guide, and our group had a mix of experienced anglers and complete beginners. Jacob did a great job making sure everyone was involved, comfortable, and catching fish. The boat had plenty of room for everyone to fish comfortably, and Jacob was patient, professional, and worked hard to make sure we had a successful day on the water. No matter your skill level, he takes the time to help and makes the trip enjoyable. If you’re looking for a great guide who genuinely wants everyone in the boat to have a great experience, I highly recommend booking a trip with Jacob. We’ll definitely be back!

    Lifetime memories made

    Weekend Half Day Trip–Private (AM) • 9 adults • 7 children

    THIS IS THE ONE!! If you’re looking for an unforgettable fishing experience, I can’t recommend Captain Jacob highly enough! This morning he took our eight grandsons out on a half-day guided fishing trip, and it exceeded every expectation. Captain Jacob was the perfect combination of professional, patient, knowledgeable, and fun. He worked tirelessly to make sure every one of the boys had opportunities to catch fish, learn new skills, and enjoy every minute on the water. One of the highlights of the day was when one of our youngest grandsons caught the biggest striper Captain Jacob said has been caught on his boat all year! You can only imagine the excitement—not just for our grandson, but for all of us. It made an already incredible day even more memorable. Watching the excitement on their faces and hearing their laughter all morning was priceless. Thanks to Captain Jacob, our grandsons made memories that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Thank you, Captain Jacob, for your kindness, expertise, and the genuine care you showed each of our boys. You didn’t just take us fishing—you gave our family an experience we’ll treasure forever. We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a first-class guide and an outstanding day on the water!

    We had an awesome time fishing with Jacob at Keeping It Reel Fishing Guide!

    Monday-Thursday AM • 4 adults

    He gave us clear instructions to find his dock, was early, completely prepared, and knew exactly where to take us. He explained how deep to fish, what we were looking for, and made sure we knew what we were doing . He's super knowledgeable and easy to be around. We caught a ton of fish... but don't worry, we left a few out there for y'all. One thing I really appreciated was that he cleaned every fish, bagged it all up for us, and even gave us some tips on the best way to cook them. If you're looking for a guide, I definitely recommend Jacob. We'll absolutely be booking another trip!

    Highly Recommended

    Jacob was outstanding from minute one. Everything was ready for us when we showed up, and we were out on the water within 10 minutes. He was very professional detailing some of the finer points of striper fishing. He was also very patient with my 13 year old. Most importantly, he put us on the fish. At the marina at 5:45, and limited out by just after 9. We probably landed 50 fish total in that time. I would not hesitate to recommend Keepin it Reel (Jacob) to anyone who wants to do a striper trip and will certainly call him anytime we want to go again!

    An absolutely day with Jacob with Keeping it Reel

    Weekend Half Day Trip–Private (AM) • 2 adults

    My 3rd time doing this and my best time ever on Lake Texoma with Jacob of Keeping it Reel. Jacob is a highly experience professional fisherman who absolutely knows what he is doing. He is beyond accommodating. He put us on the fish all day and when they stopped biting we husted to another spot and caught more fish- we caught our limit. It was so much fun, relaxing, and a much needed break ffrom the hustle and bustle of life. When we go again, we will be going with Jacob and Keeping it Reel!
