Joe Hilliard let me know several days prior to the trip that the weather was looking very tough. He offered to let us reschedule with no strings attached. He had no obligation to do so and, from a pure business perspective, was contrary to his best interest. To a corporate guy like me, what an amazing thing to know such goodwill still exist. That, plus he worked his ass off, was early, brought a cooler full of food and drinks, had more bait than we needed, hustled around the boat managing all the rigs, took pictures, damn I donโt think I could have scripted it better. Weโre looking forward to the next trip!

Thanks for the review. Had a great time despite the weather.
There are a lot of choices for guides on Lake Lanier, and Joe Hilliard is a great one!ย Heโs a great guy, has a well equipped boat and lots of knowledge about where and when to fish for striper.ย We had fun all day and, more importantly, asked a lot of questions about fishing techniques and his boat, which he freely answered all of them.ย I will be following a lot of his recommendations when Iโm fishing on my boat.ย Thanks again Joe!
Had a great time! Letโs do it again.
I have been on several trips with Captain Joe Hilliard and I am extremely impressed with his skill set to locate and catch some nice stripers on Lake Lanier. He and Jeff always give kudoโs to certain charter guys that has a great reputation on the lake but I beg to differ. Joe is a super nice guy and I would highly recommend anyone to set up a trip and watch him work.ย He is amazing and has a proven track record.

Thanks for the good review. Had an awesome time! Canโt wait till the next trip.
My wife booked us a 1/2 day trip for my 60th Birthday. Captain Joe and his first mate Jeff kept us busy and on fish. Stripers, Crappie, Hybrids and Spots were all hitting.ย Really enjoyed the experience and will be booking a future trip.
Had a great time! Thanks for booking.
Always have an AMAZING time with Joe. Boat and equipment are clean and top notch. State of the art electronics that Joe knows how to use. He will not only put you on the fish, but he can explain what heโs doing to locate and catch them. If you want a great time on the lake and the chance to catch quality fishโฆโฆ..book your trip with Joe!
Always a great time fishing with you.
