Electric City Fishing Charters

Electric City Fishing Charters is located in Anderson, SC. Captain Roth has been a licensed USCG boat captain and running fishing charters for the last 8 years and was born and raised on Lake Hartwell. With lots of experience and a friendly attitude, he can easily turn any beginner into a successful angler. Join him regardless of your skill level – you’re going to upgrade them anyway.

You’ll be fishing on a 21’ Sportsman center console that accommodates up to 4 guests. She’s powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine and a wireless trolling motor. The boat also features modern navigational electronics, a live bait tank, and a cooler. Simple and functional, this boat has everything you need for a successful day on the water.

Choose your trip depending on how long you want to stay on the water. You and the captain will target Bass species such as Largemouth and Spotted Bass. You won’t specifically target Hybrid/Striper but there is a chance you’ll catch them as well. You’ll use light tackle spinning gear. If you prefer bait casters, you may bring your own rods/reels. All trips offered are artificial baits/lures only, no live bait.

The captain covers your rods, reels, lures, and tackle. You’ll need to prepare your fishing license before the trip starts and pack some snacks and drinks. Customers are allowed to keep their catch, or catch and release. However, the captain does not clean the fish after the trip.

Find out why Bass is the most popular freshwater fish in the US. Electric City Fishing Charters is ready to take you on this adventure!

Hey, my name is Captain Roth. I have been a boat captain now for 8 years. I was born and raised in Anderson, SC, and home away from home is Rabun County. I have fished Lake Hartwell, Lake Burton, and Lake Rabun my entire life. Come join me and fish on a 22ft Sportsman as we target Largemouth, and Spotted Bass on Lake Hartwell, Lake Burton, or Lake Rabun. I currently live in Anderson, SC where I am an Elementary school teacher! If you would like to know anything else feel free to ask! Let's go fishing!
