On a chilly, windy day in January I fished with Captain Colton at Lake Hudson, hoping for a couple of spoonbills and a bunch of big catfish, and that’s what I got. First I caught 2 spoonbills immediately; I could have caught many more, but mostly I wanted the big blue catfish. In the remainder of my 5 hours I caught 24 blue catfish. The one spoonbill we weighed was 32.98 pounds, and the catfish we weighed was 24.74 pounds. What a morning of fishing! Colton Scoggins puts a fisherman right on the fish. Thanks, Colton.

Due to thunderstorms we had to postpone our trip. Instead of mid-July we rescheduled to a very hot August day! We wanted to leave early to avoid the heat. So Captain Colton gladly obliged and had the boat ready to go an hour earlier than usual.

We cruised to our fishing destination as the sun came up. It was very beautiful. The gentle breeze and the beautiful scenery were magical as the sun began to wake up behind the tree line. It didn’t take long and we started bringing white bass into the boat. After a couple of hours and a couple dozen fish we headed back to dock. Once there, Captain Colton filleted and bagged our bounty. We beat the heat and headed into town with an ice chest full of fish and stories to tell over breakfast.

We were very satisfied with our trip and definitely recommend a charter with B&C.

I fished for 5 hours on Fort Gibson Lake on a Wednesday morning in July with Colton Scoggins.  I caught 24 white bass (see above), 2 hybrid bass (see above), and 1 channel catfish.  I hooked 3 other fish that got away on the way to the boat, including a huge one (big catfish?).  The fish I caught were all in the 14-17 inch range, and the action was continuous.  I have the highest respect for Colton as a fishing guide—the fishing was outstanding, and the conversations (when we had enough time) was very enjoyable.  I highly recommend B&C Fishing.

I cannot say enough good things about our fishing trip with B&C Fishing. From the very start Bob was friendly and immensely likeable. Even before we had arrived he called to make sure we had made it through some construction without getting lost. He was very knowledgeable about the lake and answered any questions we had easily (there were a lot especially with a very inquisitive eight year old on board). Bob showed infinite patience with my son, answering all his questions and involving him in everything we did from reeling in lines to helping steer the boat for a time to helping clean the catch. We all landed big spoonbill and Bob knew just where to go to find them. I would recommend B&C to anyone looking for a fun and exciting fishing excursion especially if you’re planning on bringing children along (the drinks and snacks definitely helped).

To finish off the day when I realized my phone was almost dead from taking so many pictures and I had forgotten a charging cable for the car Bob graciously gave me one to use so we could find our way home. This level of service and attention to detail is hard to find and I can’t say enough how grateful I am to have booked with such a fantastic operator.
