Lots of fun!
Half Day Trip on June 18, 20263 adults

Captain John was awesome. He picked us up from our dock in the morning which was very convenient. We caught several types of species like Yellow Bass, White Bass, small Striper Bass, White Drum, and Blue Catfish. Fun boat and everything was provided for a satisfying fishing charter. John was very helpful with bringing fish on the boat and de-hooking. My two sons and I would definitely call on Captain John again, on our next visit to Tennessee.

Capt. Murray leads an excellent fishing trip.
Half Day Trip on October 14, 20253 adults

During our half day trip, each of us caught about 15 fish including large mouth bass, yellow bass, white bass, catfish, and drum. Capt. Murray gave excellent instructions and provided us with all our tackle. He removed most all the fish from hooks for us and never slowed down on showing techniques to improve our fishing. All his equipment was clean and in good working order. What a wonderful time we had! I strongly encourage you to sign on with Capt. John Murray.

Spotted Bass
