Southern Fried Charters – Rodman Reservoir

Southern Fried Charters invites you down to Interlachen FL., to spend the day fishing for trophy Largemouth Bass on world famous Rodman Reservoir.

Rodman has legendary largemouth bass fishing offering angler’s an excellent opportunity to achieve that new personal best. Every year many double digit fish are caught and released.

Captain Chris Davy has decades of experience on this body water giving you the advantage needed for a successful day. All tackle is provided along with ice and water. The Captain uses spinning rods but, if you have bait casters or other rods you would prefer, by all means bring em. 

Wild caught shiners are the bait of choice (NOT INCLUDED IN COST) and most double digit fish are caught using them. There is an extra cost for bait but, well worth it.

I grew up in Nashville, TN, before it was cool. As a small kid, we fished every pond and creek within 20 miles of my house, often by horseback. Certainly, it was different times, but my passion for finding fish never changed. Then it was Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass, Rainbow and Brown Trout, along with Crappie and Catfish. As a teenager, I fished on a boat called Honey Chile in Sarasota/Longboat Key, FL. It was there I learned the pursuit of “big fish.” I knew then when I was old enough, I'd be heading to FL to live and fish. I always wanted to be a professional fisherman and, in the mid 90's began tournament fishing for Kingfish. The adventure took on a life of its own, and by 2012 I started hosting the Southern Sportsman Radio Show in Flagler County and did so for 8 years. Fishing and being a guide is my life, and the real reason I do it, and love it, is to be a special part of other people’s memories with family and friends.
