J.D. Roberts is an all around outdoorsman, and cowboy. He cut his teeth in 2011 guiding horse packed fly-fishing trips in Yellowstone, and has fished all throughout the American west, fishing over 200 rivers. Since he has been back home in Texas, he has been laser focused on the Brazos River. He has made a name for himself, catching some of the largest bass to come out of the Brazos. He’s spends over 225 days on the river throughout the year, tracking the patterns of every species the river has to offer. That includes the multitude of wild game, and waterfowl that roams our beautiful river. JD has a gift for translating his knowledge to others, and a true passion for getting people from all walks of life on the water.
