With the Native Tennessee Musky population thriving and Melton Hill Musky being stocked yearly, there is no better time to book a trip and catch the musky you have been dreaming of. Based out Melton Hill Reservoir and it's connecting waterways in Oak Ridge, TN, Captain Steven will introduce you to the preferred tactics, baits, and locations while in pursuit of some of the largest muskies in Tennessee. As a leader and trail blazer in the hunt for Southern Musky, Captain Steven provides Full day or Half day trips targeting Melton Hill and Tennessee Musky that are affordable. Despite being the premier, Captain Steven also travels to other nearby waterways like Center Hill, Rock Island, Caney Fork, Collins River and Dale Hollow to pursue the Tennessee musky.

What a great day on Melton Hill Lake with Steve. He knows the water like he has been fishing it all his life. Exactly what our group was looking for and he moved things around to make it work for us.
Awesome guy and expert Musky guide!
