Lake Lewisville delivers some of the most consistent fishing action in North Texas, and Capt. Clint knows exactly where to find the fish. This 29,000-acre reservoir sits just northwest of Dallas and stays productive year-round, but afternoon trips have their own special advantages. The fish are often more active after the morning boat traffic dies down, and you'll enjoy cooler temperatures as the day progresses. Clint runs a clean, well-maintained boat with plenty of space for three anglers to fish comfortably. He's been guiding these waters for years and has dialed in the seasonal patterns that make the difference between a good day and a great day. The relaxed afternoon schedule gives you time to learn proper techniques, ask questions, and really get into the rhythm of fishing. Don't worry about bringing anything except your fishing license – rods, reels, tackle, and bait are all provided.
Capt. Clint specializes in light tackle fishing and jigging techniques that are perfectly suited for Lake Lewisville's white bass and hybrid striper populations. Light tackle means you'll feel every bite and fight, making even smaller fish feel like trophies. The jigging approach involves vertical presentations with small lead-head jigs tipped with soft plastics or live bait, dropped down to where the fish are holding. Clint uses his electronics to locate schools of baitfish and the predators feeding on them, then positions the boat so everyone can get their jigs in the strike zone. This technique is incredibly effective because it mimics the natural movement of shad and other forage fish that bass can't resist. You'll learn to feel the difference between a bite and bottom contact, how to work the jig with subtle lifts and drops, and when to set the hook for solid hookups. The beauty of this approach is that it works in different depths and structures throughout the lake, so you're never limited to just one spot.
White bass are the bread and butter of Lake Lewisville, and they're absolutely perfect for light tackle fishing. These silvery fighters typically run 1-3 pounds and travel in large schools, which means when you find them, the action can be non-stop. They're most active during spring and fall, but summer afternoons can produce excellent fishing, especially when they're chasing shad in deeper water. White bass hit jigs aggressively and make several strong runs before coming to the net. What makes them so popular with anglers is their willingness to bite and their excellent table fare – these fish are some of the best eating you'll find in freshwater.
Hybrid striped bass, or "hybrids" as locals call them, are the trophy fish of this trip. These cross-bred beauties combine the fighting ability of striped bass with the adaptability needed to thrive in Lake Lewisville's environment. Hybrids typically range from 3-8 pounds, with some real giants pushing into double digits. They're more challenging to pattern than white bass but incredibly rewarding to catch. Summer afternoons often find them suspended in deeper water, following schools of shad and ambushing anything that looks like an easy meal. When a hybrid hits your jig, you'll know it immediately – they make powerful initial runs and keep fighting all the way to the boat. These fish have become increasingly popular with North Texas anglers because they offer that "big fish" experience without having to travel to the coast.

Whether you're introducing someone new to fishing, planning a small group outing, or just want to escape the daily grind for a few hours, this trip delivers exactly what serious anglers are looking for on Lake Lewisville.

Morone SaxatilisHybrid striped bass are the lake's premier gamefish, combining the best traits of stripers and white bass. These powerhouse fighters typically range 3-8 pounds but can push 15+ pounds. They cruise deeper structure like creek channels, humps, and dam areas in 20-40 feet of water. Fall and winter months are outstanding when they're feeding heavily before cold weather. What sets them apart is their incredible fight - they'll make long runs and really test your drag. The meat is firm, white, and fantastic eating. They're structure-oriented fish that love current breaks and drop-offs. Pro tip: focus on areas where creeks meet the main lake during low light periods. Use larger jigs or live shad, and be ready for a battle when one hits.
Morone ChrysopsWhite bass are scrappy fighters that typically run 10-12 inches and pack a lot of punch for their size. These silvery fish with dark horizontal stripes love to school up in open water, especially around points and creek channels in 15-25 feet. Spring through early summer is prime time when they're most active and aggressive. What makes them special is their willingness to bite and their excellent table fare - sweet, flaky meat that's hard to beat. They'll hit small jigs, spoons, and live minnows with enthusiasm. Here's a local trick: when you find one white bass, there's usually a whole school nearby. Once you locate them, work the area thoroughly with 1/8 ounce jigs in white or chartreuse for consistent action.
