Kevin PostRepeat angler5.0VerifiedOutstanding day on Guntersville—Tim delivers
6 Hour Trip (PM) on March 26, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had an outstanding day on Lake Guntersville with Tim McNair. He’s the real deal—friendly, knowledgeable, and dialed in on the fish. We caught 76 bass between the three of us, with the biggest going 5 lb 14 oz. Tim kept things fun all day—we were laughing as much as we were catching. And the homemade cookies from Taylor Wilde were a great touch (seriously good—thanks, Taylor). It’s not only about the fishing…we witnessed a ‘dog fight’ between a bald eagle and an osprey! If you’re looking for a productive, enjoyable trip with a guide who knows his stuff, I’d highly recommend Tim.
Patrick FoleyRepeat angler5.0VerifiedExperienced local guide
8 Hour Trip on September 24, 2026 • 2 adultsTim provided in depth knowledge of the river systm out of Gunthersville. Experience with the river topography, water temperature, currents and evolving vegitation allowed us to use his extensive supplies of reels, jigs and 21 ft boat to best poition ourselves to land over 80 bass in two days. Excellent experiece from a true Bass Master who takes time to mentor and add to your existing skills.
Kyle MusgroveRepeat angler5.0VerifiedCaptain Tim was Awesome!
8 Hour Trip on June 29, 2026 • 3 adultsWe had a fun day on the water even with a tough bite in the morning. Captain Tim did not give up and we did not give up on him. We ended boating over 40 fish with a few 4-5 pounders mixed in. Had a great first experience on Lake Guntersville and would 10 out of 10 recommend booking with Captain Tim. Thank you Captain Tim for an Awesome day on the water one my two boys and I will not soon forget!
Phillip Atkins5.0VerifiedBest Birthday Present!!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 25, 2026 • 2 adultsBought my son a trip to go out and Bass Fish for his 15th birthday. Captain was down to earth “good ole boy” with a great set of skills that put us on some nice Bass. Plus, he had great gear for us to use. To top it off…we got to enjoy homemade cookies…compliments of the Caotain’s better half!! Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Great early morning trip!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 16, 2026 • 2 adultsCapt Tim was wonderful. Took really good care of us and made sure we were on the fish. Also when my grandson needed to cool down he was so good to get us to shade supplies him with a cold water and got us back in. It was a good trip considering the fish just were not that active. 11 in total! Not bad. Thanks Tim!
Rebecca Whitaker5.0VerifiedGreat Day on the Lake
6 Hour Trip (PM) on May 24, 2026 • 2 adultsMy son and I had a great day on the lake with Captain Tim. His fishing stories were very entertaining, and he knew right where to go so that we would have the best chances to bring in the catch. Almost a full day of rain added to the adventure - our best fishing trip. we will be back!

6 Hour Trip (AM) on March 24, 2026 • 3 adultsTwo 17 year olds say this is one of the best experiences they’ve ever had. Captain Tim was communicating before to ensure everyone had the correct gear, experience level and expectations. They caught a variety of fish, including some good-sized bass. Cap. Tim had a lot of good stories and really personable. 100% recommend!
