Collab with panfish bill now known as fishing with billy

East Tennessee Catfish Adventure

Billy is a great guy and a lot of fun to go catch a few with. He took me out and we did a youtube collab couple of years ago got on several nice blue cats with his knowledge of the area. I recommend any trip with him.

Response from Captain

We had a great time on the water!

    Best trip we coukd gave hoped for

    East TN Multi-Species Trip2 adults

    Rain was forecast, so we thought it might ruin our plans, but it was only light sprinkles on and off. Our guide gave us options and made the trip remarkable. Great fishing knowledge of spots, baits and techniques - and we caught over 20 fish in less than 4 hours. Including a striped bass that was the largest game fish i ever caught! We had a great time!

    Reported Catch
    Striped Bass
    Freshwater Drum
    White Bass

    Thank you again for allowing me to be your captain! That Striped Bass was an awesome catch!

    Nice haul for family dinner!

    East Tennessee Catfish Adventure2 adults

    We had a great time with Captain William on what could have been a slow day but came home with a nice batch of catfish for family dinner. Caught some on the reel and some from jugging, about 15 in all ranging up to 5 pounds. We were only interested in eating-size catfish and caught more than enough to be well satisfied. It took a knowledgeable guide to get there however! Thanks for everything!

    Response from Captain

    Thanks for the kind words! Glad you had a blast and scored those catfish. Come back anytime!

    Fast and furious!

    Grandson and I were on fish within minutes of entering the river and it was non-stop fun. We caught seven different species of fish and our Captain worked hard to keep lines bated and wet. Highly recommend!

    Amazing trip and captain

    East TN Multi-Species Trip

    Me and my son had an amazing day on the water today, my son caught his first fish and I caught my biggest fish. The boat was in the water and ready when we got there and he had live bait and cut bait at the ready. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a fun and successful trip and his work definitely paid off. Will %100 be booking again when back in Tennessee.

    Really Great Trip

    East Tennessee Catfish Adventure2 adults

    Cpt Billy was very knowledgable on the area and good fishing spots. We caught a total of 6 catfish. It was a great day, and I would recommend him to others interested in catfishing.
