Extremely friendly and helpful staff. I came in here to grab some worms for my kiddos first fishing…read moretrip, and to ask where the hell is there some damn coverage from the Texas heat lol (there is none FYI). I was directed to a little pond/lake not too far away and I spoke with the woman who works here or owns the place (I wasn't sure. She's super sweet and funny) and I purchased an umbrella that at the time I'm sure my spouse thought was a funny thing (he's hardcore lol) but my very white baby was gonna burn like an egg in a hot frying pan if I didn't. I also got the cutest bonnet for her. My kid caught herself a fish in 10sec from the first cast at that spot and a few more to follow. Those were the best darn worms my money could buy. 5 stars

Mark provided an AMAZING FISHING TRIP!!! He was simply stellar! Sure he knew the good spots and…read morebest bait. Sure all the other guides were calling him for tips because they weren't getting bites. But! Mark made fishing fun and exciting for those of us that prefer to cast/reel and not so much with touching the fish. He kept all our poles well baited and in the water! We caught our limit and had a blast!

Four words: HIRE A FISHING GUIDE!…read more Epic day on Lake Texoma, catching plenty of Stripers! Our fishing guide, RANDY, put us on fish from the get go. He knows this lake, inside and out. We had originally called another company (that advertises obnoxiously here - couldn't escape their ads). When we called, they were all booked up for weeks. I decided to look on Google maps to find other guides nearby. So glad we did!!! "Adventure Texoma" (not to be confused with another place with a very similar name!) popped up. Mark answered the phone, had availability when we wanted to book, and said we'd be with Randy. Easy-peasy. We showed up with our $12 Lake Texoma fishing licenses (acquired in town), and Randy supplied everything thing we needed to fish! We had 6 poles in the water for the most part, and lost count of fish, but it's tied over a dozen a piece! My husband also caught a good sized catfish (our largest fish of the day)! I also caught a freshwater drum, and the largest striper of the day! We agreed to call it a draw. Decided to catch and release them all. Probably should have kept one of the bigger stripers. Nevertheless, what a fun and fulfilling day! We we comfortable, and Randy is an easy guy to talk to. Thanks for everything!

The best tackle selection I have ever seen. I was in Gainesville, for a work appointment with a…read morecustomer, and happened to search "fishing tackle" to kill some time. Low and behold, I discovered a fishing oasis in a small town outside of Gainsville. This place has a whole metal building dedicated to plastics. You can buy bait by the oz or the pound of all different selections including name brand stuff. Inside the lodge has all the hard baits, weights, hooks, rods and reels. Super impressed and will be back. The prices are kind of high but the customer service is good and the selection is unreal.

They do have an array of fishing, swimming and outdoor enjoyment items for decent prices.

Aaron was fantastic! Great communication leading up to our trip.

Didn't matter to Aaron - he tried all his tricks - live bait, jigs, moved around to different spots. We caught a few. The real fun came with the jug lines:) I had told Aaron we actually prefer catfish so if he could set some jugs we would love to take home a bunch of catfish. We pulled some big ones out of the lake! He cleans everything and bags it for you - just provide the cooler to take it all home. Aaron met us at 7am and we didn't return to the marina until about 4. This was fine for the boys - they can use the bathroom over the side of the boat - ladies be warned! I'm sure he would have take taken me back but... Also it is always cooler on the water than you think it will be! Aaron has a great boat and top notch equipment - we will definitely use him again!

He new how to work with the boys, got them totally excited, and after 3 hours we had caught 72 fish - 1 catfish and mostly striper and sand bass. At the end, he cleaned all of the fish so they were ready to cook. We plan on coming back again in the summer and will definitely be booking with Aaron again.
