Great Trip Chattahookem Fishing!
Full Day Trip on March 9, 20261 adult

If you get the opportunity to fish with Captain Josh and Chattahookem, take it - you’ll be glad you did! Took an 8-hour trip on 3/9 and had a blast. Caught solid numbers of Spotted and Smallmouth. Had a great time trying the different techniques used on Nickajack. The boat and equipment are top notch, too. Boat has a massive front and rear deck from which to fish and rod/reel set-ups are quality gear. Book with confidence, Chattahookem will put you on the fish! 👍🏼

Wicked
Full Day Trip on July 29, 20252 adults

My lad and I had a wicked time. Josh help me catch the first fish, almost an 18” Smallmouth. Josh, put us on Smallmouth, Large Mouth, and Spotted Bass all day. We traveled 80 miles total, and the boat was amazing. I am thinking of buying one myself. My lad told me he will never forget this trip. He will cherish the memories forever. Thanks again Josh, we will see you soon. Yes, we’re going back for more.
