Moby Dick's - Private Pond Fishing — Local services in Texas

The first thing to know about Moby Dick’s Private Pond Fishing is that paying for a private fishing spot does not guarantee you’ll catch fish. I’m sure they stock the pond and maintain the fish population, but it’s clearly not at a level where you can expect consistent bites—even catching anything at all isn’t a sure thing.

The pricing is $15 per person for two hours, regardless of whether you’re fishing or just waiting, with an additional $5 per hour after that. The lake itself is beautiful, with several docks and fishing piers, and they offer boat and golf cart rentals if you want to explore more of the area. You can also rent fishing rods, but we brought our own gear.

That said, the fishing experience itself was disappointing. We were given catfish bait (sausages) and the appropriate hook, yet nothing was biting. The only thing we used from our setup was our rod and fishing line, so technique or bait selection wasn’t the issue. Other people fishing at the same time only caught two small fish during our entire visit. Despite the impressive pictures at the entrance and on Google Maps, our experience didn’t match what was advertised.

However, if you’re coming for a relaxing time outdoors rather than serious fishing, it’s a nice spot. There’s a grill available, and I’d recommend bringing food to cook if you plan on staying a while—especially if not everyone in your group is fishing.

Bottom line: if you’re looking for a peaceful outdoor spot to spend a few hours, this place is great. But if you’re serious about fishing, you’ll likely have better luck at a...

Brought our boys here for spring break and it was our second stop for spring break after a stay at a local resort. My boys said they enjoyed the fishing and the stay at the cabin more than the resort . (I agree ) the best part of the stay was Andy and his wife, they greeted us with a smile and went out of their way to accommodate and make sure our boys had an amazing time and catch fish! Any time we needed something (bait)we messaged and they were available. Andy checked on everyone down at the pond every hour or so asking if we needed anything or just had helpful tips on where to catch the best fish.. we caught multiple fish (huge bass, crappie, massive catfish & blue Gil) each throughout the few days we were there . The small boat to rent was easy to use and perfect for my sons and I to get out on the water as first time boaters. Nothing fancy but it did the job!! We will definitely be back for some more great...

1000 out of 10** Not only is the cabin beautiful and content, the owners (husband & wife) have gone ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure my child had a wonderful time fishing. We had yet to stay a full 24hrs and were astonished by this place. The owners even (he did not have to) offered a ride around the pond to other pavilions and docks when it began to get hot. My kiddo was so greatful for them helping get some catfish, bass, perch, bluegill, sunfish and others. We were grateful for Andy's help. Everything was cleaned and sanitized. It is peaceful. It was perfect and exactly what we needed for the short get away. I only wish we took more pictures.

We will definitely be returning. 😊😊😊
