Holding the Line Guide Service

(7 reviews)

Three of us caught 130 fish in four hours and it was SO much fun!…read more Bob Maindelle is no ordinary guide: he graduated from West Point with a BS in engineering and made a living in and out of the service as an environmental engineer and minister. He worked with Mepps to develop his signature MAL lure which we used exclusively on the trip. He has a custom designed center console boat crammed with LOTS of state of the art electronics, including FIVE Garmin LiveScope monitors with a separate LiveScope transducer for each side of the boat. All of us were amazed at the ability to see our lures go up and down and see the fish respond to them. We chose Bob Maindelle because we wanted a good lesson besides catching a lot of fish. He totally delivered on this with detailed demonstration, description and coaching on the very specific ways he fishes the MAL lure vertically and horizontally. He had separate rod and reel setups for vertical and horizontal fishing: slower reels with softer tips for vertical fishing and faster reels with stiffer rods for horizontal fishing. Bob also gave use a good lesson on how he uses his marine electronics. He uses a Humminbird Solix as his primary fishfinder in for sidescan mode and it is linked to his Minn Kota i-Pilot Linked trolling motor so he can mark a location on the fishfinder's touch screen and then send the trolling motor back to that exact location with a few more touches. He carefully explained the importance of positioning the boat downwind of the mark before commanding the trolling motor, so that the boat will be positioned correct when it arrives at the marked location. His attention to detail is exactly what I expected out of a West Point engineer, but he has an excellent ability to explain things so that less technical individuals can understand. Bob also pulled up Canyon Lake on his fishfinder map and showed us a bunch of places for us to try fishing on our home lake. We will certainly bring our boat up to Lake Belton for Bob's on-the-water sonar training class to make sure our electronics are properly installed and the settings tweaked to maximize our units' fish-finding potential. Based on Bob's demonstrations, we will be adding additional electronics to our boat to improve our fishing. White Bass fishing is fast-paced with lots of fish being caught. It is PERFECT for younger anglers who need a lot of action to stay interested. It is LOTS of fun for all ages. Bob makes it all so easy and fun and he is reasonably priced.

Bob with Holding the Line was excellent with our kids, ages 6 (girl) and 3 (twin boys). I had never…read morebeen fishing before but I had a great time. We caught something like 70 fish! It was really beautiful out there near Salado. Thanks so much Bob, we'll definitely be back!
