Omar puts us on fish every time we go out.  Our last 2 day trip resulted in cleaning over 120 White Bass and Hybrids… And Shelly brought in the biggest Hybrid she has ever hooked.  We’re looking forward to our next trip in a few months.  Thank you Omar for your skill, friendship and passion for fishing. Love ya Brother.

Our family really enjoyed going out on Grapevine Lake with our guide, Don, from Luck O’ The Irish Fishing. We caught plenty of fish and had loads of fun. Don was fun to talk with and a highly knowledgeable fisherman and gave great advice on things to do and see in the area. We highly recommend Luck O’ The Irish Fishing.
