Join Carter’s Charters for a lovely lake fishing trip in Georgia! Starting out of Flowery Branch, you and Captain Jim Carter will head out to nearby Lake Lanier and enjoy beautiful nature as well as a good chase. The captain is a lifelong angler who’ll make sure you have the best possible chance for landing a great catch and make your trip be as fun as possible. Join him aboard and have a wonderful day of fishing!
The boat you’ll use is a 23’ Ranger center console that can accommodate up to 4 guests. The boat runs on a 150 HP Yamaha engine and uses all the modern navigation electronics that will help you have a quick and safe trip to the fish and back. The boat has also got a wireless trolling motor and is equipped with downriggers, a livewell, and an ice-box.
You and the captain will be bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, and drift fishing for species such as Striped and Spotted Bass as well as Catfish and Crappie. You’re free to keep your catch if you want to and enjoy some delicious meals when back home. Just keep in mind that alcohol isn’t allowed during the trip.
Before you leave, you should have your rods, reels, tackle, fishing licenses, and the food of your choice. Captain Jim will supply you with live bait, lures, and drinks.
Come visit Carter’s Charters and enjoy a wonderful stay on Lake Lanier!

Half Day Trip on July 23, 2024
Just finished the best day of fishing I could possibly imagine with my brother and my 5 and 7 year old children. Captain Jim was amazing with the kids. My daughter was screaming with excitement when Captain Jim helped them catch what my five year old son determined to be a “four foot fish” (He is getting the hang of fishing stories already). Jim took care of everything for us. Just a great day on the lake. Captain Jim is a great guy, awesome fisherman and my new friend. I can’t recommend him enough.

We had great time with our fishing guide Jim on October 30, 2021. He was very friendly and engaged in conversation. The weather was a little chilly, but perfect for fishing. We caught great fish, and we chose to keep our capture. Would and will definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good fishing half day trip. Thanks, Jim, for this amazing experience!
