Typical results from a spring guided catfish fishing trip with North Texas Catfish Guide Service. Limits of Texas blue catfish are easily attainable in short timeframes fishing in shallow water in late March, April and early May. This is the most fun you will ever have fishing if you are after numbers of blue catfish.





More typical results from a Spring shallow water blue catfish fishing trip on Lake Lewisville or Eagle Mountain Lake with Chad Ferguson of North Texas Catfish Guide Service.





Winter is the time for catching big Texas trophy blue catfish, fish to 50 lbs are very common and multiple big fish in one trip are common results. North Texas Catfish Guide Service has a provem track record of catching big Texas trophy blue catfish.





Another big Texas winter blue catfish caught with Chad Ferguson of North Texas Catfish Guide Service on a guided catfish fishing trip. Catching a big Texas blue catfish like this on rod and reel will change the way that you look at catching catfish in Texas!  These clients from West Texas had a blast fishing with North Texas Catfish Guide Service. We have clients drive in from Abilene, Midland, Odessa, Lubbock and all over West Texas all the time because they know how good the fishing is when fishing with Chad Ferguson of North Texas Catfish Guide Service!




Flathead catfish are occassionally caught on Winter trophy catfish fishing trips but the best time for catching Texas flathead catfish (often called yellow catfish) is in the late Spring and Summer at night. North Texas Catfish Guide Service offers flathead catfish fishing trips if that is what you are after!




My good friend Lane Halfmann joined me for a couple of hours one morning to catch some blue catfish on Lake Lewisville and ended up with his personal best catfish of 10 lbs.

Some long time clients of mine with this MONSTER blue catfish they caught on a guided fishing trip with me for TROPHY catfish! We caught some amazing fish this day.




Here are the guys again with a big monster Texas flathead catfish caught a few minutes after the big Texas blue catfish pictured above. Big Texas catfish like this will really get you warmed up on a cold and rainy winter day of fishing in North Texas

Besides the excellent fishing we like to take time to enjoy the outdoors like this beautiful sunset on Eagle Mountain Lake!




These clients drove in from East Texas for a fabulous day of fishing with North Texas Catfish Guide service during a cool fall day. Limits of blue catfish and channel catfish are common many times of the year on our guided fishing trips.





Our Xpress HD22CC Center Console boat used on our guided catfish trips on Eagle Mountain Lake, Lake Lewisville, Lake Worth and the Brazos River.

LAKE WORTH GUIDED FISHING TRIPS
CATFISH- TROPHY CATFISH - SANDBASS - GAR

CATCH AND RELEASE TRIPS ONLY ON LAKE WORTH DUE TO CONSUMPTION BAN

Anyone that has been around the Fort Worth area for any length of time knows that Lake Worth is a mecca for catfish.  This small 3,000 acre lake is considered by some to be a mudhole but to anyone that has any time at all fishing it they know much different.

Lake woth is packed with some of the biggest fattest channel and blue catfish that you will ever get into in the state of Texas. It has has an amazing white bass population and has huge gar and flathead catfish in it as well.

There is a consumption ban on fish from this lake so all trips are catch and release only but if you don't care anything about keeping fish this lake can be an EXCELLENT choice, especially for the catfishing.

All guided fishing trips on Lake Worth start at the Loop 820 Boat Ramp
