Tim Mccarthy

Member since January 2024 Whitney, United States
Background
Fishing has been my passion since the 1st time my dad took me to the lake! I have fished Lake whitney and Possum Kingdom my entire life! I love the fight of a big fish and strive to give folks that same feeling! Come aboard my boat and make some memories! All groups welcome! No group too big or too small, we can accommodate you! We look forward to hearing from you!!
Techniques
Depending on the conditions and the bite, we will either spot lock or drift fish with live bait! I like to find an area holding a lot of bait and drift until we come across a big school then spot lock right on top of them!
