I can promise you my guides do not pull anchor at these times. If you are catching fish and still have bait you will continue to fish – These times are approximate times.

We can also accommodate corporate or large group fishing guide trips. There is nothing too small or large we can not handle.

During winter months be sure to bring lightweight and heavy jackets, sunscreen, rain gear and a camera.

During summer months be sure to bring sunscreen, rain gear and a camera.

We offer soda, beer, sandwiches, water and sunscreen at the shop. For groups we have a local restaurant that will make breakfast and lunch sandwiches if you request. Each guide has a cooler on board.

Wild shiner fishing is the choice bait for large mouth bass. We also offer artificial trips. At this time wild shiners are $20/dozen 1/2 day 4 dozen.

Guides have 20′ Bass Boat Equipment furnished for shiner fishing and will furnish rod and reel for artificial if needed. It is best to bring own equipment for artificial that you are accustomed to.
