This charter is dedicated to promoting the exciting sport of carp fishing. Their goal is to share the enthusiasm and enjoyment carp fishing has brought into their lives while raising awareness about how rewarding carp and smallmouth buffalo fishing can be. They aim to support efforts to recognize carp and smallmouth buffalo as legitimate game fish and to contribute to the conservation of these beloved species.
My friend and I had an incredible experience fishing with Kevin and Lee. It was our first time trying carp fishing, and it exceeded all expectations. They provide an excellent setup, from establishing a comfortable camp with fresh coffee to expertly casting multiple rods baited with the carp’s favorite cornmeal balls. Though it was a quick outing, we had plenty of bites and even landed an impressive catch! Kevin and Lee handled the fish with great care and captured some memorable photos for us. – Jonathan, Captain Experiences
Truly outstanding! Cory and Kevin were fantastic guides. Kevin’s deep passion for helping anglers catch their biggest fish really shines through. Although the weather was challenging on my trip, I still gained valuable knowledge about fishing in Texas as a newcomer. Despite the tough bite and a bit of bad luck, I would confidently book another trip with Kevin anytime.

“Euro” Carp fishing involves a specialized bait fishing technique using European-designed equipment crafted specifically to target massive Carp. This method is also excellent for pursuing Smallmouth Buffalo during the fall and winter months. This gear is not available locally; in fact, there's only one retailer in the entire U.S.—an online store based in Oklahoma!
Key features include 12-foot rods, large pit reels built for managing powerful fish, and the capability to cast up to 100 yards. Each rig is equipped with bite alarms that alert you the moment a fish bites, along with reels set to free spool so the fish can run until you reach the rod. Then, the real test begins: battling a freshwater giant hooked on a size #6 hook as you fight to bring it to the net!
Once landed, every fish is handled with utmost care—unhooked safely, weighed, photographed, and released back into the water unharmed. All gear focuses on fish welfare, including landing mats that protect the fish during unhooking and slings designed for safe weighing and release.
Our team provides all the specialized gear you might not even realize you need—your only task is to bring your Texas Fishing License and your best attitude. We'll handle the rest and make sure your fishing experience is one to remember!
