My wife and I moved up here in 2019 partly because of my passion for Bass fishing and Clearlake being known worldwide as "The Bass Factory."

I have loved fishing all my life but have been mostly Bass fishing for the last 16 years - almost exclusively at Clearlake for the last five years. The Crappie are so big here that I can’t resist fishing for them when the bite is on. We catch 50-100...

My wife and I moved up here in 2019 partly because of my passion for Bass fishing and Clearlake being known worldwide as "The Bass Factory."

I have loved fishing all my life but have been mostly Bass fishing for the last 16 years - almost exclusively at Clearlake for the last five years. The Crappie are so big here that I can’t resist fishing for them when the bite is on. We catch 50-100 in a matter of a few hours.

While I am passionate about fishing, My/Our biggest passion is serving the Homeless in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Every week my wife and I are joined by a team of people from 3 Churches serving the Homeless with food, showers, clothing and other resources that are available to them. Learn more about “Open Arms Ministry” here.

While living in Clearlake I have taken dozens of people out on the lake fishing from all ages 7 and up. My goal has always been to make sure we have fun. Of course, catching fish is a big part of that equation.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
