Timothy Bagwell

Member since December 2017 Windermere, United States
Background
I have been fishing for almost 45 years. Im a USCG approved captain and fish the FLW as a pro. I grew up Bass fishing four days a week, riding my bicycle to go fish. I now own the bait shop Get Hooked Bait & Tackle, I also own get hooked magic baits an artificial soft plastic company of 50,000 plus sold at the shop we have hundreds of people come in weekly. We're able to find the best spots and give out the best deals on guided trips with our bait. I do Charters all over the state but i will have us on a lake that is catching. I started guiding because it's like owning the bait shop, I want people to catch fish and what better way than being on the water getting them hooked up! Fishing is my life and our current boat is tuned up to run smoothly on the water to get where we need to go. Nothing makes me happier than seeing people catch fish. Bass is my thing and we have caught them year-round.
Techniques
Wild shiners from my bait shop are the thing to use around here in the area. The bite is good pretty much all year long. We do artificial trips as well but the live bait is always suggested to be the first choice. We fishing this lake 250 days a year so book today and get hooked.
