Professional Licensed Guide / Touring Tournament Veteran
MY FISHING PHILOSOPHY
First and foremost, client satisfaction is my priority. As a full time guide, freelance outdoor writer and touring pro, I am aware of the constantly changing tactics and techniques facing today's angler. I strive to stay abreast of these changes in order to educate both the beginning angler and the seasoned tournament fisherman on strategies that can be applied to any body of water.
PROFESSIONAL GUIDE SERVICE
Roger has over 10 years of tournament experience on Lake Sam Rayburn. Fishing in local, regional, and national tournaments, he has consistently placed in the money in circuits including Red Man, Anglers Choice, Everstart and Honey Hole.
SAM RAYBURN LAKE
Sam Rayburn offers some of the best fishing to be found anywhere in the nation. Nestled among tall pines and native hardwoods. This sprawling, Corps of Engineers impoundment, has very limited lakeside development, and as a result, it's uncluttered shoreline abounds with wildlife, including deer, eagles and migratory waterfowl of all kinds. With a current lake record of 16.80 lbs, "Big Sam" has few rivals for the title of "The Bass Factory of Texas".

ANGELINA RIVER
Flowing from the Sam Rayburn Dam, the Angelina River snakes it's way though over 40 miles of lowland river bottom. The oxbow lakes and natural sloughs along it's length abound with bass, crappie and catfish. One of the real bonuses of the river, is the healthy population of Kentucky "spotted" bass. While not as large as their largemouth cousins, these "spots" are purebred river fighters, and will test an anglers nerve when battled in the many laydowns that line the river's shore.

Crappie Trips
From Mid April through October, I offer 5-hour crappie trips from a 24-foot pontoon boat. I can accommodate up to 6 anglers and supply everything you need for a fish catching event of a lifetime. Most of these trips will see in excess of 50 keeper crappie boxed with many trips running 100 plus fish. A deckhand will be on board to help with baiting, retying and other duties. All you need to do is sit and enjoy the action. There is ample shade underneath the 10-foot roof area, and a padded deck on the back for the sun worshippers in your crowd. This is a great option for groups with children, elderly or a bunch of friends that just want to get out and catch some fish and soak in the beauty of Sam Rayburn

Tips for deckhand are appreciated!!

You will need to bring drinks, camera, and a cooler, 48 quart or larger, to take your fish home. Everything else is provided. The boat is slipped at Powell Park Marina, so all pontoon trips will originate from there.
