I have always had a huge passion for the sport of bass fishing. At an early age I became immediately enthralled with the sport. I now fish professionally on the MLF tour and love sharing my passion for the sport and teaching others.

    Very personable and knowledgeable.

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Our guide was on time and ready to go. He is very knowledgeable about the lake. He knew where all the channels were, breeding areas natural springs, etc. We caught 12-13 nice sized bass. He was very accommodating and was quick to fix any issue with equipment that arose. He was easy to talk to and had us back right on time. We will definitely be using him again. Great experience!

    Reported catch:
    Largemouth Bass

    Hard fishing day great experience and captain

    6 Hour Trip (AM) • 3 adults

    Had a great time! Fluctuations in weather and just an off day. He tried really hard to get us fish but they did t seem to be biting and heard from every boat that we came across. Captain was awesome and patient with new angler and was trying his best to rig things up to get us on the fish.

    Booked this fishing trip for my husband & 16 year old son. They had a great time & caught a lot of fish. Top notch boat & equipment. Joe communicated well. Would book with him again in the future.

    A pro but did not guide. Disappointed that the customer service was not there. I bought this as a gift for two family members and one person did not fish because the guide was too busy doing his own fishing. Did not offer water on a four hour trip or offer to clean fish as described.

    I was thrilled that he came to pick us up. He had an amazing amount of fishing poles, lures, and different fish finders. He knew exactly where to go and he told us why we were fishing there and we caught fish. My only complaint is I would have liked Joe to spend less time fishing and more time helping my husband catch fish, because this was his Father’s Day present. We all had a great experience. I would give him a 4.5. I could only give him a four or five so I chose a five.

    Took my two sons out fishing and they were a little new to casting artificials. He worked with them and helped keep them entertained throughout the morning.
