I have been fishing Lake Sam Rayburn and Lake Nacogdoches since moving to East Texas in 1989. I have been guiding since 1996 and have spent many hours on these two beautiful lakes chasing fish! My experience on these lakes not only comes from the many hours I have spent with clients, but also from fun fishing with my family and friends and well as competing in local and national tournaments. I have seen the lakes full of grass when the 1 oz. jig was the prime bait to almost no grass at all when I had to put out brush to give the fish something to relate to and carolina rigs and crankbaits were the prime baits. I have had so many wonderful people from all over the world in my boat from beginning anglers to experienced tournament anglers and have made some life long friends!
