Watkins Fishing Guides
Tate’s Fishing runs trips out of Gainesville. This listing takes you on a Gainesville angling journey. Captain Tate himself will make sure you experience the local fishery in style. Plus he is great with kids, so bring the little ones to fish, too!
He specializes in light tackle and trolling while focusing on Bass. Spotted and Striped Bass will be your main rivals while fishing from a 24’ Sea pro boat. Luckily, the boat has wireless trolling motor so you’ll approach your trophy catch without spooking it.
The boat can accommodate up to 5 anglers and it’s equipped with an ice box to keep your catch cool. All rods, reels and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters – fishing. You’re welcome to keep all legal species caught during the trip.
Fishing licenses aren’t included, so make sure to get them prior to the trip.
Book your trip now and hit the water with Tate’s Fishing and Charter.

So much fun!
Tate was a phenomenal guide. We had a blast, we brought our two little girls and he was so patient. Caught 8-10 nice sized bass and a catfish. Thanks so much, definitely recommended.
