We are only taking reservations for the selected dates and spots are very limited! For these 7 days of every month we have put a package together for all anglers to take advantage of which includes a ReelFly visor and long sleeve tee shirt for 2013 salt water season! The rates will remain the same of $500/day for two anglers and will include lunch, water and necessary equipment, (gratuities and  fishing licenses are not included in price). Trips can be tailored to your needs/wants to fish for the all mighty Tarpon, Redfish, Tripletail, Speckled trout etc.  A typical days itinerary will be as follows: On the water by 5:30 a.m, out for Tarpon in the morning and Redfish on the flats during the afternoon hours and return to dock by 3:30-4:00 that afternoon. A GoPro camera will be mounted on the boat to capture your experience and the video footage can be purchased for an additional $50.

As most of you know, the run does not last long but, when it's on......IT'S ON! Let us take you where the action is best and put you in the areas that are most concentrated with fish.  This year we will be running the trips out of our Beavertail Polling Skiff, so the day will be comfortable and productive.  Days are limited, call soon to reserve your spot!

Today was the first day T.P.W.D opened the DRAP system and calls came flooding in trying to make reservations.  I urge anyone interested in doing this amazing trip to BOOK NOW in order to allow enough time to arrange all the logistics involved.  <img title="devils river fishing" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/brentonlog.jpg" alt="devils river fishing" width="350" height="234" /> This trip is truly amazing and a must-do for any serious angler wanting to fill their bucket list of fishing adventures.  The smallie i'm holding here is the AVERAGE size fish you will find on this river and there are some even bigger pigs waiting for you. <img title="devils river tents" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/P2290164.JPG" alt="devils river accomadations" width="350" height="263" /> <img title="devils river" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/devils_river_048.JPG" alt="devils river scenery" width="351" height="263" /> Devils River Trips http://www.reelfly.net/news/devils-river-trips http://www.reelfly.net/rss/devils-river-trips fishing adventures Sat, 05 Jan 2013 13:09:00 -0600 <img style="float: left;" title="devils river fishing" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/P3050211.JPG" alt="devils river trips" width="400" height="300" />The time has come to reserve your trip on the sacred Devils River.  This year, we expect to arrange 5-7 trips from March to May and it's extremely important that reservations are made within the next couple of weeks. As of the new year, TPWD is issuing daily permits in an effort to limit entrance to individuals who visit.  Just 12 will be assigned each day and several other regulations are in place that will need to be addressed well ahead of time to ensure all the "i"'s are dotted and "T"'s are crossed.  As of right now there are NO Saturdays available for access during the month of April. With all this said, on to the good stuff.... The Devils River is truly marvelous! If the pristine scenery doesn't capture your attention, then the monster Bass cruising the crystal clear waters will surely do the trick! This year we will be offering trips at $900 per person (min of 4ppl, and max of 6) to include two full days of fishing within a 15 mile stretch.  All permits, camping supplies, meals, shuttling and one night of lodging will be provided. Video footage of the excursion can be purchased as well.  Itinerary: Upon arrival to the Comstock area you will check in to your comfortable accomodations. There, you will spend the evening resting up and planning for the big adventure.  The group will depart the morning after and launch at an undisclosed location to float and fish the entire day before arriving at camp on the rivers edge.  Once there, a lodge tent with cots, tables and chairs will be set up along the rugged banks of the Devils River, to reflect on the day's events and catches over dinner. The next morning following breakfast, we will head out on the second leg of the journey, floating and fishing the majestic waters until sunset concluding another ReelFly Fishing adventure.    WARNING: This trip is not for the weary, disabled or faint of heart. If you are a diehard fisherman, this river is calling for you! Dry Fly Bite http://www.reelfly.net/news/dry-fly-bite http://www.reelfly.net/rss/dry-fly-bite fishing adventures Tue, 01 Jan 2013 13:54:00 -0600   <img title="Kayla" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/brent.JPG" alt="Guadalupe River Fishing Report" width="200" height="150" />  Fishing right now is excellent! The last four days have been non-stop dry fly action and the water clarity is perfect for sight-casting to big cruising Rainbow Trout.  Above is first time fly fisher-woman Kayla, who landed her first trout on a stimulator pattern yesterday and fought several more throughout the afternoon.  We have another stocking coming VERY soon and fishing will continue to get better and better, but now is the time for dries and emergers!  Todays Pro Tip:  Be sure and check your fly line to make sure you have it dressed and cleaned so your line will ride up on top of the water, rather than below the surface; as this will cause fish to see your line and turn off off your fly.  Fish are being very skittish right now because of the water clarity, so when drifting nymphs consider using clear, white, or yellow strike indicators and flourocarbon leaders/ tippet. White Bass season is just around the corner and slots are filling fast, so call and reserve your spot soon.  The end of January or the first part of February should be excellent!  This year we will be using the Beavertail to get you on the action which will undoubately be awesome in the upcoming weeks!  The next few months offer so many opportunities for anglers, so get off the couch...or out of the office and come take a ReelFly Fishing Advenure with us! <img src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/brent2.JPG" alt="" width="320" height="240" /> Guadalupe Fishing report http://www.reelfly.net/news/guadalupe-fishing-report http://www.reelfly.net/rss/guadalupe-fishing-report fishing adventures Fri, 14 Dec 2012 18:37:00 -0600 The Guadalupe River fishing right now is excellent!!! We have so many BIG fish in the river and conditions are great despite the low water flows.  Ryan and I have been on the river guiding almost every day this season and the fishing has only been getting better! We have only a day or two open for December and January is booking fast! We can accomodate groups up to 6 ppl with help from Judson with Hell and Back Outfitters and we hope to continue to be on the river daily and take you where the fishing is best.....away from the crowds.

Now, the fish appear to have moved off the redds (spawning beds) and are beginning to spread out some. This week has been tough with the full moon, cypress needle litter and barometric pressure, but......it will get much better VERY soon! Patterns that have been working well for us include, yellow sucker spawn egg, sparkle blood worms for attractor patterns and scuds size 20 in olive & tan, Rainbow Warriors and lightning bugs for droppers have been the ticket.  Because the water is so clear, fluorocarbon tippet and white or clear indicators may help you get more bites.....Remember that the fish have been tasting lately and you need to have the hammer cocked when the indicator moves, or you will spend the day frustrated and missing fish.   <img title="male trout on the guad" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/trout_fishing_pic_for_news.jpg" alt="guadalupe trout" width="500" height="375" />   Canyon Lake is fishing good right now for Crappie and Stripers, structure for crappie and drop offs with full sinking lines for stripers.   Port O' Connor Is awesome right now!  The flats are full of big healthy Redfish and the water is crystal clear for sightcasting to the fish.  Be aware however, that the water is so clear that the fish can also see you well ahead of them and spook easily in the thin, clear water.  Remember to wear colors that help you blend in with the water or sky, the AQUA vanish with skyward camouflage would be a good choice for anglers headed to the salt right now. We fished the flats this weekend and despite the great conditions, we found the fishing to be tough due to the Redfish's lack of appetite. We did manage to land a few though and found white baitfish and shrimp patterns to produce. Nothing top water or gold were getting a look. <img style="margin: 2px; border: 2px solid black;" title="poc fly fishing" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/ashley_redfish.jpg" alt="ashley redfish" width="300" height="400" /> Merry FISHMAS! http://www.reelfly.net/news/merry-fishmas http://www.reelfly.net/rss/merry-fishmas fishing adventures Mon, 26 Nov 2012 14:58:00 -0600 MERRY FISHMAS from ReelFly Fishing Adventures!<img src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/IMG_0658.JPG" alt="" width="250" height="375" /> Trout season is here on the Guadalupe River and the fishing could not be better!  Trout Unlimited held their first trout stocking for the season on Saturday November 17th with an average of 2lbs per fish! We have caught some beautiful, big bows over the last week.  The response we got with our Black Friday Special was phenomenal and we're looking to keep fishing with you! December is also a great time to fish, so beat the cold and the crowds and take advantage of our latest holiday specials:    FISHMAS Book a Full Day trip on any weekday from Dec 3-21 for ONLY $325.00 plus tax and receive a ReelFly gift certificate for $20.00!

Huge schools of Jack Crevalle, like the photo above, and large pods of rolling Tarpon are being sighted everywhere outside the jetties and just offshore. Flats are full of tailing Redfish and the list goes on! Conditions have been excellent with calm waters in the morning and a light sea breeze during the afternoon to keep us cool.  Now is a great time to come down to the coast and enjoy wonderful weather and fantastic fishing. Best places to fly fish http://www.reelfly.net/news/best-places-to-fly-fish http://www.reelfly.net/rss/best-places-to-fly-fish fishing adventures Mon, 30 Jul 2012 18:52:00 -0500 Best places to fly fish? -A topic that most always comes up when anglers are reminising about their day on the water with an ice cold beer.  No matter the place or the fish, there is a phrase that always comes to mind when we recall moments from our best fishing..... "You gotta pay your dues"- Whether you're on the river nymphing for that 28" rainbow, or fishing structure for a 12lb bass- maybe sightcasting to tailing Redfish in the flats early in the morning when the water is glass, or perhaps, hooking a 100lb Tarpon screaming line out. it holds true. The fact is, you'll only get those opportunities when you're on the water wetting a line. I've learned that the best fishing is circumstantial, based on the day you happen to be out and the luck that happens to be following you.  Granted, having knowledge about the areas you are fishing, feeding habits, effective techniques and so on, will help you, but catching the fish of a lifetime is not going to happen overnight. It takes real desire and sometimes continual efforts, but each attempt is another memory made on the water. Life seems to be in a big hurry these days and it can be difficult to get away to fish due to the busy schedules we think we have to keep.  In the end it's the busy schedules that keep us- from living and fishing and making those memories!  Because these fishing stories are so important to us, ReelFly Fishing Adventures has now moved into the techno world and capable of recording your memories.  That's right, while your reel is smoking and you're making those school girl noises, we can be recording those moments for you! Now equipped with an HD GOPRO head cam, we are able to capture footage of your adventure as a souvenier to take home to show the world.  Now's the time! Port O Connor is currently the hot-spot and is predicted to stay that way for few more months.  Large schools of Migratory Tarpon are rolling in the gulf, while giant pods of Redfish are tailing in the flats.  We are scheduled to be on the water everyday until Aug 10th, helping clients chase these memories, but are ready to take your reservations from Aug 11- on for you. Take a break and let us help you make those memories that will never be forgotten.  <img style="margin: 2px auto; border: 2px solid black; display: block;" title="Tarpon on the fly" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/P8130751.JPG" alt="Tarpon on a fly" width="600" height="450" /> Texas Tarpon http://www.reelfly.net/news/texas-tarpon http://www.reelfly.net/rss/texas-tarpon fishing adventures Sun, 03 Jun 2012 19:16:00 -0500 <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/scvdxOrm79U" height="300" width="350" frameborder="0"></iframe> ReelFly Fishing Adventures presents....... Ryan Hitzfelder with his Texas Tarpon, caught in Port O Connor!

We fished yesterday in the flats where Ashley caught this nice 23" Redfish that was surronded by about 20 more as big or bigger! The flats are full of fish and the weather has been great.  Most of our shots yesterday were within 20ft of the boat and fly of choice was the the shrimp/crab clouser.  The bay was to rough to get to the Tarpon, but Redfish and trout are fishing so good, it's hard to get away from the flats anyway.  Being that the bay is a little rough its important to find grass flats that will help filter most of the water making very clear and esy shots at tailing Redfish and cruising Redfish.  Get a day in mind and give us a call to set up your trip to make some memories!   Beavertail Flats Skiff http://www.reelfly.net/news/beavertail-flats-skiff http://www.reelfly.net/rss/beavertail-flats-skiff fishing adventures Thu, 24 May 2012 15:19:00 -0500 <img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Saltwater fly fishing" src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/bt.jpg" alt="New beavertail flats skiff" width="700" height="419" /> ReelFly Fishing Adventures is expanding to the coast!  We are now taking reservations for Tarpon and Redfish trips in Port O Connor.  I've been fishing Port O Connor for about 10 years and recently decided to expand our services there in the summer months.  Above is my new Beavertail polling skiff guide boat which I will be using for our trips this summer.  Port O Connor is an excellent destination for fly anglers of all skill levels with endless grass flats offering up-close polling opportunities for Redfish and Trout and even the all-mighty TARPON!   We fished Tues with Capt. Jack Campbell and Capt Kevin Townsend for the silver kings and despite the rough seas from a westerly wind had luck on the fly.  Throughout the day we had around 30 Tarpon roll around us over 80lbs and some even over 100lbs.  Around 2:30 p.m. we found a pod of Tarpon in the 40-60lb range holding in a cut in about 15 feet of water off the rocks and managed to boat a really nice 40lb fish and hooked another one the same size. If you’re looking to get away this summer to an excellent place for some amazing fishing, give us a call and let us help you plan your trip.  We can customize your trip with lodging, gear and of course fishing to fit your needs and get you in the action!  Full day trips are $500 for two anglers and include lunch, gear, flies and memories that will last a lifetime!

We floated the Devils River for two days followed by a one day float trip on the south Llano with great success!  Despite the harsh head winds upward of 35mph and the full moon curse we managed to land several good size fish on the fly.  ReelFly Fishing Adventures is now offering overnight camping trips on some excellent rivers for very affordable prices.  For overnight trips we have a 8 person lodge type tent that easily sleeps your group on comfortable cots.  For overnight trips we require four anglers and use both drift boats to accomodat 4ppl to two full days of guided fishing on the Colorado River, Llano River and Devils River.  I would highly recommend the Redington Predator rod for your spring season, the rod easily cast big flies through 30mph + winds with amazing accuracy.  The Predator is now my favorite bass rod and you can pick this affordable rod up at our fly shop in Sattler.  Call now to reserve your spot for the spring and summer months!  Fishing is awesome now.....and getting even better by the day! <img src="http://reelfly.net/im_images/P3050222.JPG" alt="Devils River samllmouth" width="300" height="400" />  4 person overnight camping/ fishing trip prices are as follows: Colorado River $425.00 per person, 4 person minimum. (includes any equipment needed, two full days guided fishing, all meals and water.  Each angler will have their own cot provided in a large tent with plenty of room for gear storage.
