Lake Travis Bass Fishing: Your Texas Adventure

Ready for some of the best bass fishing Texas has to offer? Hop aboard for a 4-hour morning trip on Lake Travis that'll have you hooked from the start. As a local guide, I'll show you the ropes (and the rods) as we chase after those hard-fighting largemouth bass. Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, this trip is all about having a blast on the water and maybe landing the big one. So grab your hat and let's hit the lake!

What to Expect on the Water

We'll kick things off bright and early, when the bass are most active and the lake is calm. I'll provide all the top-notch gear you need - we're talking premium rods, reels, and the latest in fish-finding tech. As we cruise to my favorite fishing spots, I'll fill you in on the lay of the land (or should I say, water). We'll target those bass hangouts - submerged trees, rocky points, and hidden coves where the big ones like to lurk. Along the way, I'll share some local knowledge and fishing tips that'll up your game. And don't worry if you're new to this - I'm here to help with everything from casting to setting the hook. It's all about having fun and hopefully putting some fish in the boat!

Techniques & Tackle Talk

On Lake Travis, we mix it up with a variety of fishing techniques to keep those bass on their fins. We might start off casting topwater lures at dawn, watching for those explosive strikes that'll get your heart racing. As the sun climbs, we'll switch to finesse tactics - drop-shotting or throwing soft plastics around structure. I'll show you how to work a jig through cover or how to walk-the-dog with a Zara Spook. We use artificial lures exclusively, which means more action and less downtime. And let me tell you, there's nothing like feeling that tell-tale thump on your line and setting the hook on a big ol' Lake Travis bass. It's addictive!

What Anglers Are Saying

Don't just take my word for it - here's what some recent guests had to say about their trip:

"We had a fantastic morning fishing with Captain Wyatt. We pulled in so many Bass we lost count. They were a very nice size. We even caught 3 at one time. And Captain Wyatt was very willing to make our day perfect, from untangling line to changing up our bait. I would highly recommend him as your fishing guide. Tight lines to you" - Bertie

"Great trip, caught dozens of nice size bass. Captain was great! Had the good spots and great equipment. Would highly recommend" - Jason

"We had an amazing time on our recent fishing trip! The location was beautiful, and the fishing was fantastic! We caught several fish and learned a lot from Wyatt. Overall, it was a perfect day on the water, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing fishing experience. Can't wait to book our next trip!" - Skylar

Species You'll Want to Hook

Largemouth Bass: The star of the show on Lake Travis, these hard-fighting fish are known for their explosive strikes and acrobatic jumps. They can grow up to 10 pounds or more in these waters, with the average catch being in the 2-4 pound range. Spring and fall are prime times, but we catch them year-round. There's nothing quite like the rush of a big largemouth smashing your lure!

Crappie: These tasty panfish are a favorite among anglers for their delicate flavor and fun fight on light tackle. We target them around brush piles and submerged trees, often using small jigs or minnows. Spring is the best time to catch crappie, especially during their spawning season when they move into shallow water. It's not uncommon to catch a bunch once you find a school!

White Bass: Also known as sand bass, these fish are famous for their exciting spring runs up the rivers and creeks feeding into Lake Travis. They're aggressive feeders and often school up, which can lead to fast and furious action when you find them. White bass typically range from 1-3 pounds and put up a great fight for their size. They're a blast to catch on light tackle and make for some excellent eating too!
