Team Nitro Ken Pro Guide Services

If you want to explore the plentiful waters of Lake Sam Rayburn alongside a friendly and knowledgable guide, then join Team Nitro Ken Pro Guide Services and get ready to reel in anything from Largemouth Bass to Catfish. Captain Kenneth Cates has over 28 years of professional guiding and tournament fishing experience, and he loves educating his guests about these fishing grounds – as well as providing a fun and productive day on the water! You can also get a training in Lowrance electronics since Capt. Ken is an expert.

Capt. Ken lives on Lake Sam Rayburn, so it’s fair to say that he really does know it as if it was his own backyard! When he’s not exploring these waters with guests, he likes taking part in fishing tournaments. Whether you’re looking to take your family on a memorable vacation, or want to brush up on your skills in preparation for a big tournament, he’s your man. He’s happy to accommodate children aged 4 and above.

You’ll be heading out to the lake onboard a 22’ Nitro Z21 bass boat. Her name says it all – she’s perfect for chasing Bass and other lake-loving species! She can accommodate up to 3 anglers. She’s decked out with top-of-the-line gear, including GPS, Lowrance electronics, life jackets for all ages, and an ice box.

Capt. Ken is extremely knowledgable when it comes to Lake Sam Rayburn – he knows these waters like the back of his hand, from the the top river at the north end, to mid-lake areas such as Veech, Indian, and Black Forest, to the south end areas including Buck Bay and Needmore. If there’s a certain species you want to go after, he’ll know the best place in the lake to target! Expect to bottom fish and jig for Largemouth Bass, Crappie, and Catfish.

Your trip includes top-quality branded rods and reels, light and heavy tackle, and live and artificial bait. You can request for your catch to be cleaned and filleted, too. Grab a fishing license and join Team Nitro Ken Pro Guide Services for a fun and educational adventure!
