Looking to spend a special day on the waters of Lake Hartwell? Top Hook Fishing Charters is at your service.

Targeted species include Hybrid Striped Bass and Striped Bass. Feel free to take home any fish you catch within the legal limit. Fish cleaning services are also provided if needed.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Child-sized life vests are available.

You’ll be fishing from a 22’ Sea Hunt center console that holds up to 1-4 passengers plus your captain. It has all the essential fishing tools plus great comfort with many seats. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with live bait.

Before coming aboard, please purchase a fishing license to comply with state regulations (Kids 16 and under are not required). This information is available online, or you can ask the captain.

It’s never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunblock. There will be water offered complimentary, but let the captain know if you wish to bring anything additional. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Top Hook Fishing Charters.

Being on the water has been a true passion of mine my entire life. I have experience offshore in the Gulf of Mexico and catching hybrid bass and striped bass on Lake Lanier/ Lake Hartwell. Top Hook Fishing Charters is family-owned and operated by Capt. Greg Lanier. I am a husband and father of 3 who enjoys taking both kids and adults out on the water. Chasing the experience of reeling in a once in a lifetime catch never gets old and I enjoy being able to allow others the opportunity. Top Hook Fishing Charters would love the opportunity to make your dream come true!
