Kingfishers Guide Service
+52Spend the day with Kingfishers Guide Service and let them show you what makes the fishing in Townville so memorable! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Fisher can tell you all about the local fishery.
These waters are known for Striped Bass, Hybrid Striped Bass, Largemouth Bass, Spotted Bass, Catfish, and more – with any luck, you’ll hook into a few! During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. For the more adventurous among you, there’s bowfishing.
Children are welcome, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks to keep up those energy levels!
Your day begins aboard a 25’ Sea Pro center console that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.
Before coming aboard, you will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. Don’t leave home without sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with the Kingfishers Guide Service!

AMAZING family fishing fun!
Half Day Trip AM on March 18, 2025
We had the BEST time catching well >30 fish with our 2 young kids (6-8)! I’ve never seen anything like it! At one point they were biting everything we threw out! Loved that we were able to spend quality time with our kids and foster a love for nature. Fisher was a wonderful guide/fisherman and very knowledgeable. He let the kids do everything we did, and we all had an absolute blast! Would absolutely use him again in the future and recommend him to others. Thanks, again, Fisher!

Fisher is King
Half day for up to 2 people on July 31, 2024
I sent my 15 year old son and his friend out with Fisher recently for an evening booking, and they had a great time. They loved his knowledge of the lake and the fact that he took the time and patience to explain and teach them some useful techniques, especially since they are both relatively new, and very excited about the sport of fishing. As a bonus, Fisher even picked them up and dropped them off at the dock of the house we were renting, texting me in advance and making sure I would be there also. Nice touch for a single parent on vacation with several teenagers. It was so very convenient, but I'll add was arranged in advance, so I wouldn't necessarily except that but if you're close to portman or broyles ramp you should at least inquire for sure. We would definitely book with Fisher again. Brian Seay

Family fun on evening trip
Summer striper fishing EVENING on June 18, 2025
Fisher was very knowledgeable and helpful. He scouted out locations for us ahead of time to ensure we caught fish. He did great with my boys ages 13 and 15. They both caught lots of fish and were very happy. He was on time and courteous. Enjoyed our trip and would book him again.

Summer striper fishing MORNING on June 14, 2025
We had a wonderful time yesterday. Fisher was very knowledgeable about striper fishing and a lot of other things. We really enjoyed the fact that his wife Savannah was helping us with the Bates and the polls. We’re looking forward to the next trip.

I’ve lived on Hartwell my whole life and been fishing it since I was a little kid. I’ve learned a lot about the fishery over the years and continuing to learn more everyday. There’s nothin I love more than taking people out and putting them on fish and having the best time while doing it!
