Chad was such a great guide. He was well prepared and knew exactly where to go. He took the time to explain why we were trying the different techniques, what to do in different situations, and explained the gear he was using. We caught a lot of fish but more importantly to me, learned a lot about how to fish on lake Gaston.

Chad was awesome made the grandkids day special. Chad went out of his way to make sure we caught plenty of fish n explained all the different fishing gear that he used n for me n my wife it very knowledgeable for what we need to do to learn to fish on our own.Overall it was beyond my expectation.we had a great day.Thank you
Captain Chad was great and was very respectful and helpful to the kids.

🎣 Unforgettable Fishing Adventure – 20-Inch Bass Catch of a Lifetime 🐟 Captain Chad Keeter gave us an amazing 1/2 day on the water! From start to finish, he was professional, patient, and full of knowledge about the best fishing spots. Thanks to his guidance, we caught the biggest fish of the day — the longest measuring in at an impressive 20 inch bass! It was an exciting and memorable experience that we’ll be talking about for years to come. If you’re looking for a top-notch fishing trip with big results and great vibes, this is your guy. Highly recommend! Southern Fishing Tour.

Chad was a excellent teacher. He gave my 12 year old son a lot of useful information.
