    Great trip!

    AM Lanier Half Day Trip Special on September 11, 2026 • 4 adults

    Had a great trip with Captain Josh Horton! He put us on fish all day and I ended up landing a nice trophy spotted bass. Josh clearly knows the water and worked hard to keep us on the bite. Highly recommend if you're looking for a productive, fun day on the water!

    Fishing with Josh

    AM Lanier Half Day Trip Special on March 7, 2026 • 2 adults

    First time my brother-in-law and myself fished for stripers. That was the goal and we told our guide. Neither one of us had ever caught one. It was a foggy day so we got started late but within 45 minutes on the lake we had our first striper. 10 lbs plus. within another half hour we had our second striper. we had met our goal in less than two hours of fishing. That was it for the stripers but we continued to catch largemouth bass and spotted bass all we good size. It was a great day with a lot of action with no problems. We will be back.

    What a nice time, great adventure

    Half Day Trip – Lanier Special (PM) on July 19, 2025 • 2 adults

    One of those days that even without catching any fish the afternoon was a blast, hanging out with my youngest son and just enjoying the experience. Big shoutout to the Captain, what a nice guy, super kind and always willing to provide a good service for us, all in all amazing. I am planning on coming back very soon! Thanks Captain.

    Even a bad day of fishing can be good

    AM Lanier Half Day Trip Special on April 6, 2025 • 3 adults

    Josh and the boat was great for me and my two sons. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We struck out with some bad weather and bad luck on the fish biting, but at least we each caught one. Would highly recommend Josh for others looking to get some fishing time in and learn some too.

    So Much Fun!

    Half Day Trip – Lanier Special (PM) on April 8, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    My 12-year-old and I booked a half day trip with Mr. Robert and Josh and had a blast! My son caught 3 bass within the first hour! It was really cool to spend that time with him and in the company of such great guides. We’ll definitely book another charter again!

Top Notch Guide Service
AM Lanier Half Day Trip Special on October 10, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child

Josh and his dad provided excellent service. Josh and his dad kept us well supplied with different rods ready to go with artificial and live bait and coached us with their expert knowledge. The goal was for my 10 y/o son to "get a win" by catching a bass. It was pretty cold and windy that morning, although it did warm up closer to noon. I'm thinking other guides would have cancelled, but Josh got us out there. We did end up getting a fish, even though they didn't seem interested in biting. I highly recommend Josh Horton for your fishing adventure.
