Captain Junior's got something special lined up for you on Lake Conroe – a relaxed 2-hour fishing experience that's perfect when you want to get on the water without committing to a full day. This isn't about chasing tournament-sized bass or breaking records. It's about enjoying what makes Lake Conroe one of Texas's top-rated fishing destinations while keeping things simple and fun. You'll fish from his comfortable 24-foot Starcraft pontoon that handles up to six anglers, giving everyone plenty of room to cast and move around without bumping elbows. The boat launches right from Kingston Cove, so you're fishing productive waters within minutes of leaving the dock.
Lake Conroe's got that perfect mix of structure and open water that keeps fish active year-round, and Captain Junior knows exactly where to put you on them. The pontoon setup gives you stability that's hard to beat – no worrying about rookie anglers losing their balance or gear sliding around. You'll cruise along the shoreline structure where bass like to hang out, then maybe drift over some deeper points where the crappie school up. The lake's got plenty of timber and brush piles that hold fish, plus those creek channels that run through the main body create natural highways for everything from white bass to catfish. Weather plays nice most days here in Willis, but even when it's breezy, the pontoon's size keeps things comfortable. Captain Junior stocks the basics – rods, reels, tackle, and bait – though you're welcome to bring your favorite gear if you've got preferences.
This trip keeps the fishing methods straightforward and effective. You'll likely start with live bait – minnows or worms depending on what's biting – rigged on simple Carolina rigs or under slip bobbers. Captain Junior's a big fan of letting the fish tell you what they want rather than forcing complicated techniques. If the bass are shallow, you might throw some soft plastics around the docks and fallen trees. When they're deeper, you'll drop down with jigs or live bait on fish finders. The pontoon lets you fish multiple techniques at once – someone can work topwater lures up front while others drift live bait off the back. Lake Conroe's water stays pretty clear most of the year, so lighter line works better than heavy tackle. You'll use spinning gear mostly, nothing fancy or intimidating for beginners. The captain keeps several rod setups ready so you can switch between finesse fishing and throwing bigger baits without retying constantly.
Lake Conroe's largemouth bass are the main attraction, and for good reason. These fish grow fat and happy in the lake's warm waters, with plenty hitting the 3-5 pound range during spring and fall. They love the shallow coves early morning and late evening, but you'll find them around deeper structure when the sun gets high. What makes Conroe bass special is how aggressive they can be – when they're feeding, you'll get that hard strike that jerks the rod right out of your hands if you're not ready. Spring spawning season brings them shallow where they're easier to target, while summer finds them relating to deeper brush piles and creek channels. White bass run thick here during their spring migration up the feeder creeks, creating some of the most action-packed fishing you'll find anywhere in Texas. When they're schooling, you can catch them as fast as you can drop a line, with fish in the 1-2 pound range that fight way above their weight. Crappie fishing stays consistent year-round, especially around the lake's numerous fishing piers and brush piles. These slab-sided fish hover around structure in 8-15 feet of water and make excellent table fare when you want to take a few home for dinner.
