Lake Norman Catfish Guide Service
Lake Norman Catfish Guide Service
Excited to catch some fish in Denver? That's what Lake Norman Catfish Guide Service is here for!
Catfish, Hybrid Striped Bass, and more can be found in Lake Norman and nearby Mountain Island Lake. Catfish bite all year long, but the best fishing is generally mid-March thru the end of May, and then July 4-mid October. Once the water cools off November-February, we tend to target the hard fighting Hybrid Stripers.
Kids are encouraged to come fish! Let me know their size life jacket, if they are too small, you may need to bring one for them.
My boat is a 22' Dual console that holds up to 3 passengers, four in a pinch, with a bimini top and ample seating.
I provide all bait and tackle, you just need to bring the appropriate clothing, a fishing license if 16 or over and whatever snacks/lunch and drinks you want. We generally do catch, photograph and release fishing, but if you are interested in keeping some to eat, let's make a plan before we launch.
I generally ask to limit having much alcohol on board, so let's chat if you'd like to bring something other than water or soft drinks.

Captain Bill is a wealth of knowledge. He didn't just put us on the fish, he actually took the time to teach us about the lake, the patterns, and the techniques he uses. He’s incredibly fun to talk to, and has great stories. Most importantly we caught some big fish! If you’re looking for a top tier guide who is knowledgeable, professional, and great company, Captain Bill is your guy. We will absolutely be booking with him again.
My 9-year-old son wanted to catch a bass for his birthday, and we ended up catching about 30 or 40 of them! Bill was great and knows every single corner of Lake Norman. I highly recommend booking with Bill!
He caught on to everything really quickly. He can come be my shiner scooper anytime. Great having you two on board. That was a really fun day!
had an awesome time today. Caught tons of bass and some catfish.
You two were a hoot! Come back any time!
If you want some good laughs and lots of interesting information, Captain Bill is your guy! He was very friendly and we learned a lot from him! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get in a boat and catch some fish!
Thanks, Brandi! When the bite started, we got so distracted we forgot to take some pictures of the fish! Great having you two on the boat today.
Bill was very knowledgeable and cool to everyone onboard. we would have liked to catch a little more fish but understood they just weren’t biting that day. Family friendly trip.
Sometimes the fish just don't want to play as much as we'd like. I would have loved to send you home with a couple more bags of filets, but hopefully you were able to make a nice fish fry out of the ones that did bite!
