Background
Captain Jay Eichler is the owner and operator of Lake Fork Guide Service. He has been fishing since he was a young child and guiding professionally for over 20 years. With more than 2 decades of experience, Jay has mastered the local waters and knows all the honey holes around. He enjoys sharing his passion with his friends and whoever steps aboard his boat.
Techniques
Artificial bait. Several of the most popular bass fishing techniques. Texas rig, Carolina rig, drop shot, weightless swim baits. Crank baits from shallow, medium to deep. I enjoy teaching any type of technique you are interested in.
