Excited to catch some fish in Nashville? Then Nashville Kats Fishing has a trip with your name on it!

These waters are known for Catfish, Flathead, and more – with any luck, they'll make your reel scream. On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

Capt. Ryan runs a 24' SeaArk aluminum fishing boat with room for 3 passengers. It has and all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it so you know if 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.

It's recommended to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is not allowed.

Your trip with Nashville Kats Fishing is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

Best Bday fishing ever!
6 Hour AM Trip 7am-1pm on April 24, 2026 • 2 adults
Just wrapped up an incredible day fishing with Captain Ryan on Old Hickory Lake and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better birthday experience 🎣 Captain Ryan was amazing — super knowledgeable, knew exactly where to go, and had us on some seriously good-sized catfish. You can tell he really knows these waters and loves what he does. Everything was easy, fun, and just a great vibe from start to finish. Hands down the best birthday fishing trip ever. If you’re in the Nashville area and thinking about going out, this is 100% the guy to book with.

Such an awesome time!!!
4 Hour Trip – Evening on July 5, 2025 • 2 adults
Me and my wife have been wanting to go on a catfishing charter for a long time, we finally decided to while I was off work for a week and I’m so glad we did it!!! We usually bank fish close to where we life so this was a whole new ballgame. We caught 7 in all, my wife caught 4 and I caught 3. The last one she got was 32 pounds!! We released everything we caught but we didn’t catch any less than 13 pounds! It was awesome!! The captain was a great guy and we’ll definitely be trying to come every year from here on out! 10/10!!

I had a friends Son fly in from the West Coast and he wanted to fish. I booked with Ryan and am so greatful I did. We landed an 18 pound Blue Cat in the first hour and then proceded to catch a 24,26,38 and a 43 along with a few 15-20’s during the 6 hour trip. Ryan is awesome! We enjoyed great conversation, laughter and explosive fishing. cant wait to go again!

First catfish charter!
4 Hour Trip – Evening on July 12, 2025 • 2 adults
I found this charter for my wife and son who were in the area for a baseball tournament. Captain Ryan Lawrence put them on fish they’ll remember for a lifetime. He made it easy to navigate through the logistics of making the trip happen with unknowns and a small window of time, and obviously also knows how to navigate his local waterways and produce some great fishing and memories!
