Welcome to Lakerat Bowfishing! We . All you need when you come bowfish with us is a valid Texas fishing license and an itch to stick some fish. All ages and skill level are encouraged to shoot! We provide the boat, the bows, the arrows, the lights, and we know where the fish are! All you have to do is show up and start shankin'! Day trips typically run from 10am-2pm or from noon-4pm. Night trips start at sunset. Your time does not start when we leave the ramp. It starts when we start fishing. I make sure you get a FULL 4 HOURS of fishing, and take in to account the time we spend going to and from the ramp and from spot to spot. We provide ice and bottled water in a big cooler with plenty of room for you to throw your ice cold “refreshments” in, if you want to bring some. We’ve been bowfishing for over 20 years and guiding for 10. Our goal is to ensure that you have one hell of a time and make some memories you’ll look back on for years to come. We can’t guarantee that you will kill a fish, you may be a terrible shot… but what we can guarantee, is that you will have multiple opportunities to stick some fish and we will try our best to help you get your aim dialed in until you get the hang of it. Just remember, aim low, then when you think you are aiming low enough, aim lower. We mainly fish Lake Whitney, but special trips to other lakes or locations can be arranged. We have experience on many lakes in Texas, from hunting gator gar on Lake Falcon to shooting grassys on Texoma to redfish and sheepshead in Venice Louisiana. We can set up a trip just about anywhere. Just shoot us a message and we will get something set up for you if you want to fish a different lake or make a weekend bowfishing trip somewhere.
We also offer “Regular” fishing trips. Whether you are looking to catch a limit of striper, shoot some carp and gar, stock your freezer with a whole mess of catfish, plan a weekend full of fishing, or want to target some trophy sized fish, Lake Rat Charters has you covered. With over 2o years of experience on the waters of Lake Whitney, we can “hook” you up with a trip to remember. We offer a variety of different options to suit everyone, from beginner to seasoned angler, from 5 to 95, from couples to corporate trips, we’ve got everything to ensure your trip will be one for the books!
Many guides offer trips that end when you catch your limit of striper. If the fishing is good that can easily be within in first hour. At Lake Rat Fishing Charters our trips last a full 4 hours, with us there is none of that catch a limit and you’re done nonsense. If your group catches your limit in 45 minutes, we will find a different species to chase. Go slab for whites, drift for some blues, see if we can’t find a mess of channel cat piled up somewhere, or we can go catch some BIG baits and see if we can’t hook into a real trophy striper that wants to pose with you for a picture. Many bowfishing charters are the same way. They start their timer when they leave the ramp and make sure they are back at the ramp right when your 4 hours is up. Not us! We make dang sure you get a full 4 hrs of fishing. Not riding around in the boat. Not driving to or from the fishing spots. 4 full hours of actual fishing time. Check out our options, see if we have anything that peaks your interest and shoot me a text or e-mail with any questions you may have. We can do morning trips, afternoon trips, night trips, full days, multi-trips, bachelor parties, freezer filling trips for an upcoming fish fry, we can even plan all inclusive full weekend trips… Whatever you have in mind. Lake Rat Fishing Charters can make it happen!
