GOOD KAYAK GUIDES? - 02/12/16 04:30 PM
Who are some of the good ones here in the DFW area? thought about getting with one or two for crappie and hybrids to learn how to key in on em especially using the fishfinders!!

Matt or Shane Davies
www.shanedaviesguide.com. Granted, I don't think Shane uses a fish finder. He just knows how to catch em.

Shane Davies, I've never been with him but have fished around him alot and seems to know the river behind Whitney pretty well.

This ^..I've fished with Joe and Matt on several occasions and these guys can put you on them!
They've been consistently posting stringers of slab crappie over the last few days on FB

The other two I would reccommend that know the creeks and crappie around here are Tarponfly and Carver.

Thank you guys for the recommendations. For the past five years I've been about as hardcore of a kayak angler as there is. Last year I decided to make a life change and start taking people kayak fishing for a living. I've fished kayak bass tournaments all around the country and consistently done well. Growing up in Texas and living all over the state afforded me the ability to fish just not in North Texas but everywhere from East Matagorda and Galveston Bay, to the border lakes of Amistad and Texoma, and just about everywhere in between. I love to fish and most importantly now I LIVE to fish! Species doesn't really matter I'm proficient at finding and catching a multitude of fish species.
dating back a few years, here is my kayak tournament fishing history:
2012 P.K.A.A - O.H Ivie North VS. South (4th)
NTKBF Purtis Creek (4th)
NTKBF Mineral Wells (2nd)
2013 NTKT Ray Roberts (6th)
