Dieter Melhorn Fishing – Lake Wylie
We run our guide trips year round on Lake Wylie, which is on the border between North Carolina and South Carolina.
The lake has an abundant population of blue catfish, some of which that can surpass 60 pounds! Crappie and white perch are two other species of fish that are abundant and fun to target.
We primarily fish out of a 21 foot Lund deep-V boat that can carry up to four guests comfortably and safely. It is a smooth riding and dry boat even on the windiest of days on Lake Wylie. For some of the shallow water trips in the spring, we fish out of a 19 foot Carolina Skiff.
Catfish are my primary target species, but crappie and white perch are also target species for our anglers.
Be sure to check out my Youtube channel, Dieter Melhorn Fishing, to get a better understanding of how we fish, and the captain you will be fishing with!
We look forward to having you on boards this year!!

Dieter Melhorn is a hard working captain who knows his business. We all had a great time and caught a bunch of fish. Will definitely book with him again.
17-pounder , two 16-pounders , one 10-pounder & several 7-9 pounders !! as good as ut gets !!! great Captain ..wonderful , entertaining abd obviously a CATFISHOLOGIST ...had a blast !!
The boys caught 2 catfish and a few crappy. They were all smiles when I picked them up at the boat dock! Dieter was excellent and gave them a fishing trip they will remember for a long time! This was a birthday gift for my 15 year old and 17 year old boys. They were able to learn more about fishing and tips for catfishing!
Awesome trip! I took my 12-year-old son out on Lake Wylie for his birthday and we both had a great time! Captain Dieter was a ton of fun to hang out with. He knows his stuff, answered all of our “rookie” questions, and is an excellent conversationalist to boot!! A++!!! I highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing family. I’m not sure who got the most out of this trip; the birthday boy, the father, or myself. Good times!

The guide was excellent, the fishing was fabulous. We put 16 catfish in the boat. Four were over ten pounds and two were right at 20 pounds. We highly recommend this guide!!!! You will have a great day on the water with him. We did and will be back.
