Can’t recommend Captain Gregory highly enough to anyone looking for a fishing charter around Chattanooga. The crappie weren’t biting a lot, but the white bass sure were. We also caught a nice large mouth and 2 really nice catfish. My wife absolutely loved her first experience fishing from a boat and the only complaint I had was that she caught so many I had to spend all afternoon cleaning fish. This was the first fishing charter I’ve ever done and Captain Greg was great and made my me and wife very comfortable throughout the whole process. He also gave great instructions about the location - everything before we actually went fishing. If you are looking for a good fish charter in this area do not hesitate to book with Captain Greg. We will be back soon.

Had a great day fishing with Captain Gregory.  In spite of poor water conditions, we still managed to find plenty of fish.  The previous night there were severe storms and the water was pretty dirty.  I did not see anybody catch anything in the other boats that were on the water at the same time. I think it’s a safe bet that you will do well if you go out with this guy.  We caught white bass (lost count how many - they were very active) 2 yellow bass, some crappie, a bluegill, 2 largemouth and one spotted bass. Best fish was one of the largemouth at ~4lbs.  I highly recommend Captain Gregory, and since I’m in Cleveland for business somewhat regularly, I plan to look him up every time I make the trip.

I booked a trip with Smith Fishing Adventures to experience spider rigging and trolling crank baits on planer boards for crappies.  What an amazing experience…Captain Greg is a wizard at this specialized fishing technique!  He went straight to his pre-planned “honey holes” and we were on the fish in no time at all.  With his state of the art electronics and his knowledge of the target species we were able to stay on the fish all morning.

His boat and equipment are top notch and very specialized from his 16’ graphite spider rods all the way to his use of the Live Scope to make his client’s fishing adventure a truly one of a kind experience!  I have been on so many chartered fishing trips in my lifetime from walleye fishing on Lake Erie to deep sea fishing for King Mackeral and I would rate my spider rigging crappie trip on Lake Chickamauga right up there with my all-time favorites!

Gregory Smith is a gem of a fishing guide! My buddy Jerry and I had an unforgettable experience on our trip with him. Greg’s company was delightful, and his expertise made the entire excursion a joy. We’re already planning our next fishing trip with him. His gear is top-notch, and his understanding of the local waters is unmatched. Can’t recommend him highly enough!

Captain worked hard to find us fish, unfortunately there was a tournament the same day with the boats flying across the water. It spoiled a few of the areas that should have been great fishing. He worked hard to find to us a spot, and even gave us some extra time. I highly recommend him.
