description
Though we have many great rivers in Texas, the San Marcos is unique as the heart of it starts right on the edge of the Texas Hillcountry. It is regarded as one of the most biologically diverse aquatic ecosystems in the Southwestern United States. Bubbling up from San Marcos Springs in the middle of San Marcos and the Texas State University campus, the river is crystal clear and resembles an aquarium. As it flows southeast out of town the river takes on a darker green hue and is surrounded by areas of lush habitat. With constant flows, great aquatic vegetation, and a predominantly deep river bed, this watershed has all of the key factors for being a prime time fishery, and it is! We float this trip in 14’ AIRE Whitewater Rafts with plenty of room for two anglers. Expect good fishing and beautiful scenery.

Deposit
A 50% deposit is required at the time of booking to secure your trip.
Cancellation Policy: All deposits are refundable up to two weeks before your scheduled date. We will do our best to re-schedule your trip before your deposit is forfeited. Cancellations less then 24 hours of your trip will result in a full trip rate charge.
Weather: All safety concerns due to inclement weather will be called based upon the guides judgment. Once you hop in the boat, a trip has started. Poor weather during the course of the day may happen but as long as it is safe we will continue to have a good time! All trips will meet at the agreed upon time and location. Prior to the start of the trip, the guide will make the call whether to proceed or not. If it is decided bad weather is imminent we will do our best to modify the trip length or reschedule to another date. If neither parties can agree upon another time/date then a full refund will be issued. This policy is in place to ensure we make every attempt to get you on the water. The weather changes by the minute in Texas and even though the forcast the night before the trip may look poor, the next morning conditions may have changed.
