I booked the full day instructional trip with Captain Gilbert. I was having issues transferring from pond hopping to learning how to fish on a lake, and he had some great advice and tips and lessons on how to adjust for lake fishing as well as things to add to my skill set. On top of this, he was extremely friendly, patient, great at explaining things at the different levels I needed it, and easy to get along with! I highly recommend using Captain Gilbert for your next fishing adventure!

Gilbert was the perfect captain - knowledgeable, kind and patient.  We fished Joe Pool Lake, and it was obvious he knew the lake extremely well.  We caught quite a few bass and had a great time.  He also let us use his trailer to practice towing, where it became clear that the man was simply made to teach.  Whether you are new to fishing or just want to go fishing without any hassle, you can’t go wrong with GTB Outdoors.  We will definitely hire him again.

Booked a guide trip with GTB Outdoors and was not disappointed. We are avid bass fisherman who came out to TX for the Bassmaster Classic and the chance to catch a TX size largemouth because as they say, “everything is bigger in TX”. We’ll on my last cast of the day, I scored this 9.85 pound lunker and it made our trip every better. Book your trip with GTB Outdoors. Very knowledgeable, very personable and will make you love fishing even more!!

Wonderful fishing day trip on Joe Pool Lake! Gilbert is a wonderful guild and incredibly knowledgeable about the art of fishing. He made me feel comfortable the whole time and he is always there to help you and answer questions.  He took me fishing around the entire lake which was beautiful. I would definitely recommend Gilbert for your next fishing adventure. I know I will be back again.

I’ve done several salt water fishing charters and been wanting to get into fresh water. Gilbert gave my son and I a great experience. We both were able to catch our first bass. The boat was in immaculate condition. Most important Captain Gilbert was very friendly and knowledgeable.  Would definitely recommend for all ages. Especially if you are wanting to take the little one.
