MW Guide Service – Bass Fishing on Clear Lake

Captain Matt Willis with MW Guide Service is ready to show you around beautiful Clear Lake. Clear Lake has consistently been rated among the top 5 lakes in the U.S. for bass fishing by Bassmaster magazine.

The name of the game here is Largemouth bass and Capt. Matt specializes in catching them. Fishing on these trips is strictly for sport, and everything you catch will be released. A valid California state fishing license is required for all trips with no exception.

Your boat for the day is a stunning 20’ Bass Cat Caracal with a capacity for 2 passengers. It comes tournament-rigged with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You will have access to all the premium rods, reels and tackle needed to catch fish on Clear Lake. Guests may also bring their own gear but please be sure to let Matt know prior to your trip. Alcohol and smoking are not permitted.

Capt. Matt works with clients of all skill levels, from total beginners to seasoned tournament anglers who want to learn the lake. Hiring a guide on your trip to Clear Lake will make the most of your time. A guide will get you catching fish right from the start, showing you what techniques are working and where the bass are biting.

Now and then, the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen with MW Guide Service!

I have been bass fishing almost exclusively on Clear Lake for over 15 years, and as a resident of Lakeport, I have the luxury of being able to fish here regularly. In general, I have been fishing for as long as I could hold a rod. My passion is giving others the opportunity to discover our amazing fishery first-hand – there's nothing quite like it. I am also a CTA (Certified Tourism Ambassador) for Lake County and work with the Chamber of Commerce to make visiting Clear Lake an incredible experience for all.
