Owned and operated by Greg Crafts, Toledo Bend Guide Service is ready to show you where and how how to catch fish. Greg has fished Toledo Bend since its inception in the early sixties. He lives on the lake and has been a full-time licensed guide since 1993 spending over 200 days a year fishing Toledo Bend.

Greg specializes in fishing for black bass year round. The limit is eight bass per person with a 14 inch minimum length. He will also fish for crappie, white bass, and bream and maintain numerous brush tops for crappie. The crappie season begins in the middle of October and runs through January. They have a creel limit of 25 crappie per person per day with two pounders not being unusual. The white bass run starts in late February and runs through April with plenty of schooling action in the summer. The creel is 25 per person per day. The bream spawn starts in April and runs through June.

Greg also owns Toledo Bend Cottage if you are interested in accommodations for your stay at Toledo Bend Lake.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 14)

SLOW. Water stained; 72 degrees; 0.30 feet above pool. Lake level has been on rise all week, with eleven flood gates open 1 foot each at this time. Best bass bite has been frogs, swimjigs and topwaters around the flooded grass and bushes in 1-4 feet of water. Texas rig and Carolina rig fish coming out of 12-18 feet on main lake humps and ridges. The crankbait bite should pick up any day. Some good reports night fishing with the full moon, anglers are catching fish on spinnerbaits and buzz baits all on the banks. Crappie are hit-or-miss due to the high water. Crappie in the creek and grass are fair. The best bite has been in shallow brush piles with live bait. Report by Stephen Johnston, Johnston Fishing.
