If you're up for a freshwater adventure in Georgia, visit Cumming and join Chase In Fins! Captain Bruno Mingione has been fishing on Lake Lanier for 19 years, and he'll be happy to show you all the best spots and techniques when it comes to lake fishing.

His 23' Carolina Skiff center console boat is perfect for exploring these productive waters. The boat can accommodate up to 4 people who can all fish at the same time. It features a wireless trolling motor, so you can target those fearful fish without spooking them. There's up-to-date navigational equipment on board, as well as an icebox and a cooler.

Capt. Bruno will have Shimano, Okuma, and Daiwa rods and reels for you to use, and you'll be fishing with live bait prepared in advance. Be sure to bring your fishing license, which you can get online before the trip.

Lake Lanier is home to different species of Bass, so you'll target Striped, Spotted, and Hybrid Striped Bass on all trips. If you want to take your catch home and have it for dinner, you are free to do so. Keep in mind that there are no cleaning stations in the area, so you'll have to take care of cleaning and filleting the fish.

Spend some quality time with your family in nature, and make some lifelong memories with your kids. Capt. Bruno loves fishing with kids and seeing the excitement on their faces after they reel in their first fish! Life jackets will be provided for them, so you can relax and enjoy your day.

Make sure to dress weather-appropriately, and bring some food and drinks to stay refreshed throughout the trip.

Pack your things, book Chase In Fins, and get ready for a freshwater fishing adventure like no other!

    Half day trip with Captain Bruno

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on April 7, 2021 • 2 adults

    Fun trip despite only catching a couple of fish. Guess that's why they call it fishing instead of catching! The lack of fish wasn't caused by the lack of effort from Captain Bruno. He tried his best to put us on some fish and while we saw some on radar, they simply weren't biting. He gave it his all and even kept us out there longer than the 5 hours for the half trip.

    5 hour trip with Cpt. Bruno

    5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 11, 2020 • 2 adults

    Excellant trip, with one reservation. No fish caught. Not necessarily Cpt. Bruno's fault, it happens. He was doing everything right, but the fish didn't cooperate. Buddy's boat fishing right next to us, the same way, caught a couple of fish. Luck.....

Captain Bruno started as a First Mate in NJ a long time ago and moved to Georgia in 2000. He started guiding in 2003. He's got a wealth of experience in both salt and freshwater fishing, and fishing is his biggest passion. He gets the most enjoyment out of fishing with families and children, witnessing their excitement when they reel in the fish. He always makes sure that his customers are having fun, and he loves spending time with them sharing experiences.
