Worth The Catch Charters – Chautauqua Lake
+8Jamie Worth invites you to experience the stunning waters of Chautauqua Lake. Captain Jamie, with years of local experience, will be your guide for the day.
These waters are known for Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, and more – with any luck, it won’t be long before "Fish on!"
On these trips, it’s common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle. Capt. Jamie also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.
If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are also a good idea to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
You’ll be welcome aboard a 22’ Ranger bass boat with a capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with a fighting chair, all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures.
You will need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. 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.
You can’t go wrong when you bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with Jamie Worth!
