Team Mc Fishing Guide Service

If you're going to cast a line in Northern California, look no further than the Team Mc Fishing Guide Service.

Around here, the fishing is popular for King Salmon, Striped Bass, Cutthroat Trout, Sturgeon, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Brown Trout, and more with any luck. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids, as well as first responders and military veterans, are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You can't go wrong with snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip, bottled water is available on board at no charge!

You'll be fishing aboard a 24' Alumaweld aluminum fishing boat that can carry up to 6 anglers plus crew. It has downriggers and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a portable flushable toilet on board for your convenience.

You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is included for certain types of fishing trips. Such as live minnows for drifting bait for Stripers.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is not allowed.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Team Mc Fishing Guide Service is just a click away.

I have been fishing a variety of lakes and rivers in Northern California since i was a kid in the 1970's. I have built my fishing team from a group of family and friends starting in 2001 to fish in local derbies and tournaments. We started out by donating our time to local groups to get kids fishing as well as veterans on the water also. in 2011 I started the guide service to officially be able to take guests out fishing on the lakes. In 2013, the addition of being licensed as a Captain with OUPV (6 pack) credentials for tidal waters was obtained. After a couple of years, I was able to take and pass the Near Coastal credentials for running passengers up to 100 miles offshore as well. My personal and career background includes being licensed as a Paramedic. Having worked both Fire and Ambulance for many years, allows me to be comfortable in handling any unforseen circumstances that may arise also. I pride myself on providing a safe, and fun, family-friendly environment on the boat for a day. Please contact me for a fun filled adventure and let's go fishing!
