About Your Trip

Get ready for an unforgettable day of fishing on the Tennessee River with Captain Aaron! Specializing in the pursuit of Blue Catfish, Flathead Catfish, White Bass, Bream, and Skipjack, Captain Aaron knows these waters like the back of his hand. Whether you're an experienced angler or a newcomer looking to reel in some big fish, this trip is designed to give you the best chance at hooking into some serious action.

Captain Aaron’s 2472 Sea Ark is built for comfort and performance, accommodating up to 4 guests with plenty of room for everyone to fish and enjoy the day. You’ll have all the necessary fishing tackle and bait provided, so you don’t need to worry about a thing—just bring your snacks and drinks in a small cooler. While the gear’s covered, be sure to bring your fishing license, and don’t forget your rain gear and bug spray just in case. (A quick note: please avoid spray sunscreen if possible, and if you smoke, bring something to discard your cigarette butts responsibly.)

As we move into the fall season, the cooler water temps make for some exciting fishing opportunities. October brings hungry fish on the prowl, and with Captain Aaron’s expert guidance, you’ll be in prime position to land some serious catches. But don’t stop there—if you’re looking for real trophy fish, some of the best action of the year happens in January and February! Whether you're chasing those fall bites or planning ahead for winter trophies, Captain Aaron is excited to show you the best of what the Tennessee River has to offer.

So pack your essentials, dress for the weather, and get ready for a day filled with tight lines and big fish!
