Ricky's Guide Service, I began my guide Service in 1976 and made both you and myself a promise that I would help teach you and all others that fish with me everything I can about fishing whether it be for bass to bluegill and all about this Great Lake.

As a child I grew up hunting and fishing the old river bottom and when they began making a lake of the river I watched it as it grew all the way to what we see today. Now for over 42 years I have served as your licensed guide and I promise you today that I will do whatever I can to show you the best fishing trip I can when you fish with me. So remember if you're looking for a guide then why not give me a call and let me show you a great day on the water and also fill you in on some of Lake Palestine history.

Call today at 903-530-2201 and book your day or days with the longest running guide Service on the lake. And last but not least thank you for checking out my post. I'm Ricky Vandergriff your fishing guide.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 27)

GOOD. Water normal stain; 63 degrees; 0.48 feet above pool. The lake continues at the full level, giving lots of area for spawning activity. However, the weather continues to be uncooperative, keeping the water temperatures about 5 degrees lower than normal for this date. The fish are moving in through the staging areas, but in 2-3 days they are pushed back out by north winds and lower temperatures. All species can be caught and fishing is good, but the bite periods remain short. Best bet is to watch the wind forecasts for south to southeast winds at less than 10-12 mph, and watch the moon position for the classic rise, set, and meridian times. Blue catfish remain very good on live minnows and cut bait. Hybrid stripers are good trolling rigs, but they tend to move out of an area quickly, a pattern that will continue until the strong shad spawn develops. Report by Jim Beggerly, Jim’s Fishing. Crappie fishing is good on jigs and minnows in 1-15 feet of water. About half of the fish have already spawned. Bass fishing is good in 2-8 feet of water on plastics around structure and baits that displace water on grass lines and edges of structure. Report by Sam Parker, Freshwater Fishing Adventures.
