  Outstanding Gentleman who is an outstanding Guide

  Half Day Trip - 2:00 PM on October 1, 2025 • 2 adults

  The first guided trip my wife and I have ever taken. Fantastic experience right from the beginning. Booked with Ridge for our anniversary, absolutely the best time on the water. Fishing almost 40 years and I learned new techniques and new favorite baits. Fish from the little ones fought like monsters to the big ones that tried to pull the boat. Ridgeline a Fantastic job putting me on a dream fish. 18 inch smallmouth, best fight with a fish I've ever experienced. Definitely will book again, maybe a chilly spring morning. Give Ridge a chance, if they're biting he'll find them for you to try and catch. Yes, I missed quite a few bites til I got the hang of them. Thank you so much for a great day on the water.

  fish and fun

  Half Day Trip - 2:00 PM on June 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

  Ridge got us on the fish right away. he had good gear and continuously switched things up to find the hot bait. he kept us in the strike zone with trolling motor and boat effortlessly but we still had to make the cast which we love. coached my 9year old son up on reading the water and making the best cast. the guy is a pro and equally important cool guy to BS with for a half day. highly recommend you wond be let down.

  Fishing with Ridge

  Half Day Trip on March 31, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

  While we were visiting the area for Spring Break we decided to book a river fishing trip. Our first one ever and it completely exceeded our expectations. Captain Ridge was the best! He is very knowledgeable and gave us great tips for catching fish. We caught 14 fish!! We had great conversation while fishing on the river. He was very good with communicating with us about trip details. Thank you for a great experience.🎣

  haulin’ bass!!

  Half Day Trip on August 21, 2026 • 2 adults

  we had the best time with captain ridge - we caught bass on the first cast and the last! ridge was super knowledgeable and patient and we had a great time on his home river. we highly recommend ridge if you’re looking for something fun and outdoorsy to do in the pigeon forge area.
