I am a Bass guide on Nickajack and Chickamauga Lake.

I offer various types of trips from electronics training/ rigging, specific species trips (Smallmouth, Largemouth, Spotted), one on one coaching on a regular basis, and so much more! If you can think of it, I can be your guide! Families making of a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard!

You’ll be fishing from a 21’ Phoenix bass boat with space for 3 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. I will supply rods and reels for you, along with lures.

I am currently serving in the Tennessee Army National Guard in Chattanooga, being in the Guard has taught me attention to detail, patience, leadership triats, and so many more valuable traits that I incorporate each and every day in my Guiding.

Book a trip with me and lets get you Hooked on Bass!!

I’ve been tournament fishing since early 2016, ever since then I’ve found out that I really enjoy teaching. My passion for teaching has lead me to become a guide. My guiding career is just getting started but I have a young, open mind and I’m always looking to catch a bass and put clients on fish! Let’s go fishing!! I am also an Officer in the Tennessee Army National Guard. I joined in 2019 and currently am serving in a Field Artillery Battery. Being in the Guard has taught me many traits that I apply to my guide trips each and every day!
