The lakes of Georgia hide within them a lot of secret fishing spots, underwater holes, and tricky bays. Fish Slayer Fishing Guide has been fishing the mountains and lakes of Georgia his whole life, he knows this are better than the back of his hand and he's here to share that expertise with you.

The boat you'll be fishing from is a 19-foot NauticStar, built in 2017 – it still has that new boat smell to it. It's powered by a solid Yamaha outboard engine, with 115 HP of power. That's quite enough for this shallow boat as it can develop a maximum cruising speed of 35 knots, sliding across the lakes in no time.

Captain Len Slay loves fishing the lakes to his bones so much, you can bet he wants to catch the fish even more than you! You'll go after a variety of species such as Catfish, Walleye, Striped Bass, Spotted Bass, and Hybrid Striped Bass. Spinning, jigging, drift fishing, and trolling are the techniques that work best in this area and Captain Len is an expert in all of them.

Pickup is available from any dock on Reregulation Reservoir or Carters Lake, the distance is not important. All equipment required is provided by the captain. Live bait is also available and prepared for the customer before you arrive. There is no minimum age for kids with Fish Slayer Fishing Guide service and young anglers are welcome to enjoy the amazing lake fishing this area has to offer!

    Great fishing trip!

    Extended Half Day Trip (AM) on June 9, 2026 • 4 adults

    Len is a great fishing guide! Caught fish all day, when one method shut down Len knew how to change up his approach to catch more. Enjoyed the trip and the conversation. A group of three and we all enjoyed the fishing trip! We let Len pick the lake to fish based on current conditions. Well done!

    Tough Fishing conditions but great results

    Half Day Trip (AM) on August 4, 2025 • 2 adults

    I've never had luck on Carter's lake so I thought I'd use a guide to show me how it's done. Unfortunately there was a cold snap, high winds, and threat of rain, so chances were not looking good. Captain Len found the best spots and gave us a good chance to catch fish despite the conditions. Both my daughter and I caught plenty of fish, including some good size stripers. He was a pleasant guy to chat with and was very knowledgeable of local reservoirs. I'd definitely go with captain Len again.

    We had a great day!

    Extended Half Day Trip (AM) on July 1, 2025 • 2 adults

    My wife and I booked a trip with Fish Slayer “Len”and from the word go, he had us on fish. Len was friendly and really easy to talk with. We started out early morning and had a terrific experience the whole trip. I really liked that when the biting slowed down in one spot, we didn’t linger on a single place too long. We left with a cooler full of fish, some great pictures, and some really good memories about our shared experience.

    Great trip with Captain Len!

    Full Day Trip on June 14, 2024 • 2 adults

    My son and I came all the way from Washington State to fish for big Stripers and were not disappointed! Captain Len got us on fish right away then the fishing died, as it can in the summer heat. Len stayed at it, though, pulling out all the tricks, never giving up, and keeping a cool head. He was able to find us even bigger and more fish than the cool morning had offered! My son and I were very pleased and fully enjoy our day on the water with Len, we will definitely book again with Len in the future! You will not be disappointed with Captain Len, a great guy to be on the water with!

    Great trip on the water. Captain Len was knowledgeable and had everything we needed. Weather cooperated but the fish were a little slow. Main objective was for my grandson to catch his first striper. Thanks to Len that mission was accomplished. All in all, a good day. We will be back.

    The fish had their mouths closed this day, but captain Len did his best to get us on the fish. Only caught a few, but a bad day of fishing is better than a good day at the office. I’ll be back next year with Len
