Background
Captain Wilber is the owner and the Captain of Fintastic Striper Fishing Charter. Captain Wilber is the areas only Bass Pro Shops Prostaff for Striped Bass. He has been fishing since an early age and has 30 years fishing knowledge on East Tennessee lakes and has taken his passion into a business for the past 7 years. One of his favorite things is to introduce children to fishing and the outdoors. He works closely with Capt. Bobby Crabtree, a seasoned Striped Bass fisherman, and runs the boat along with Capt. Wilber.
Techniques
Live bait fishing is my preference but I will use any means necessary to put meat in the boat.
