Hook N Up River and Lake Guide Service is located in Dadeville and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.
Capt. Randy will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 4-hour trips and 8-hour trips, mainly fishing for Striped Bass depending on the season and conditions on the day. Also, spotted bass, white bass, crappie and catfish can be targeted. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, jigging, and spinning.
Your fishing adventure starts on a 26’ Angler Qwest boat that can safely take up to 10 anglers. This boat comes with a fighting chair and wireless trolling motor.
All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Please make sure to buy a valid fishing license ahead of time. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip. The boat will be supplied with waters, be sure to let the captain know if you have any questions and feel free to bring your own drinks and snacks, no chips please.
Book your trip now and hit the water with Hook N Up River and Lake Guide Service.

Caught a bunch of stripers and learned about different techniques to catch them. Very clean and stocked boat. My daughter and I had a lot of fun. I would recommend Randy for anyone looking to catch any fish the lake has to offer.

due to scheduling problem, we went out on very windy day at the wrong time of day. Captain warned us of poor time to fish. Captain tried every trick and worked hard but fish not biting. I look forward to going again when Captain says is time.

Captain Randy has obviously been doing this for a long time. He was able to put us right on top of the fish on a summer afternoon in July. We had a half day session in the afternoon and came home with 7 big striped bass. The whole time he was talking with the whole party answering whatever questions we had, engaging in good conversation, and let us watch him fillet the fish at the end of the day.
