Lake Brownwood Fishing Guides
It’s easy to rent a boat and drop a line in the middle of Lake Brownwood or head to a cove or creek surrounding the lake to fish. But going with a guide can take the guesswork out of finding where the fish are during any given time of year. Visit all the secret spots to fish with local Jason Cotton who owns Fishing Addiction Guide Service in May, Texas. Most of his business comes from word-of-mouth, but you can find him at Fishing Addiction on Facebook.
Box R Outfitters, based in Cross Plains, Texas, offers a four-hour guided fishing trip on Lake Brownwood. You’ll board a pontoon boat on this Lake Brownwood fishing excursion. Your guided experience includes fish cleaning, but be sure to pack your own drinks and snacks.
