No fishing experience required, just show up ready to cast a line. This beginner friendly trip heads out onto the calm waters of Clear Lake with a licensed fishing guide and USCG certified captain handling everything from steering to baiting hooks, so anglers of any skill level can settle in and enjoy the ride.

Rods, reels, tackle, and bait are all included, along with a cooler stocked with ice, bottled water, and soft drinks. Guests age 17 and up will need a valid Texas fishing license (day passes run about $15 online) and everyone completes a quick waiver before departure. Whether or not the fish are biting, four hours on Clear Lake Bay bring sunshine, fresh air, and plenty of good memories.
