Captain
Bobby Crabtree

Member since February 2018 Rutledge, United States
Background
Fishing is my true passion, I spend most of my days on the water and follow the migration patterns of Striped Bass. I really enjoy helping kids and watching people of all ages catch their first trophy fish. I fish mainly live bait but will use any means necessary to put fish in the boat, including downriggers, planner boards, umbrella rigs, and artificials. I am a licensed Captain through the US Coast Guard. I can launch from either Bean Station TN or Jefferson City TN.
Techniques
Live Bait or down riggers, and I also like pulling planner boards with huge gizzard shad.

The bite was just okay

VERIFIED   Half Day Trip (AM) trip on March 26, 2023
Capt Bobby did a good job of finding the fish and bait, but the fish didnโ€™t bite most of the time
