Southern Monsters Guide Service

Get ready for a real-deal fishing experience with Captain Daniel Armstrong, one of North Texas’ most dedicated full-time guides. With years of experience on the water and a family legacy rooted in fishing, Daniel brings unmatched knowledge and a personal touch to every trip. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned angler, this is where your next great fishing story begins.

Captain Daniel runs private and group fishing trips on three of Texas' top freshwater lakes: Lake Texoma, Lake Ray Roberts, and Lake Tawakoni. Each location offers a unique bite and a chance to reel in a variety of local favorites. Depending on the time of year and the lake you choose, you can target Striped Bass, White Bass (Sandbass), Hybrid Bass, Smallmouth Bass, and both Blue and Channel Catfish. These waters are known for producing quality fish—and lots of them.

From cooler months packed with big Blue Catfish to warm-weather runs of surface-feeding Stripers, Daniel times each trip to put you where the action is. All trips are family-friendly and tailored to fit your pace, whether you’re casting with kids or chasing trophy fish with your buddies. Need a corporate trip for a larger group? Daniel and his trusted crew of guides can handle that too.

Your ride for the day is a 23-foot Falcon Boat, powered by a 350 MerCruiser inboard-outboard engine. It’s designed for comfort, stability, and safety. Onboard, Daniel uses a Lowrance HDS 8 with side and down imaging and a Humminbird graph for navigation and mapping. These tools help locate schools of fish fast—so you spend more time catching and less time searching.

Daniel provides all rods, reels, bait, and gear. Just bring your valid fishing license, weather-appropriate clothing, drinks, and snacks. He keeps things simple, efficient, and fun—focusing on what matters most: making memories on the water.

When you book with Captain Daniel Armstrong, you're not just choosing a trip—you’re choosing a guide who’s passionate, prepared, and proud to share the lakes he grew up on. Join him for a fishing trip that feels less like a tour and more like fishing with a lifelong friend who knows where to find the fish.
