Whenever I'm not competing or on the road, I take great pleasure in guiding clients on fishing or boating trips, whether in freshwater or saltwater. You know, being on the water has been my dream since childhood, and it feels amazing to live this dream every day! Before this, I worked for a large corporation for about 7 years post-college. Eventually, I took the plunge and set up my own company, so I could share my deep passion for the water and outdoors with others. It's been an incredibly rewarding journey!

The best bass fishing experience ever!
Half Day Trip on June 20, 2026 • 2 adults
We had a fantastic bass fishing trip with Captain Chris on Lake Murray! As complete beginners to bass fishing, we learned so much about selecting the right lures, reading the water, and effective fishing techniques. Captain Chris was patient, knowledgeable, and made the experience both educational and fun. Thanks to his guidance, we caught 7 bass and even landed a striped bass! It was an exciting day on the water, and we enjoyed every minute of it. We highly recommend Captain Chris to anyone looking for a great fishing experience on Lake Murray, whether you're a beginner or an experienced angler.

Had a great day catching over 15 largemouth bass on the trip. This was a personal best for me. Learned more about the art of dropshot fishing. Captain Chris can find fish .

Best Fishing Trip Ever
Half Day Trip on June 21, 2025 • 2 adults
Chris & I caught at least 25 fish - predominantly large mouth bass. Chris is an amazing captain and person. He taught me how to use the electronics and how to fish Lake Murray. My fishing experience during and after the trip is 1000% better due to what Chris taught me. I’d highly recommend him to anyone wanting to catch fish on lake Murray.

We caught a lot of fish on our half day trip,and several big ones. Our guide was very friendly,and shared his knowledge with us. Chris knew the water very well. I would recommend this guide to anyone ,and hope to get back down to Lake Murray myself and get another guided trip with him.
