Fishing Goal:
I want people that fish with me to learn, enjoy, and
catch fish.  Whether you want to just catch numbers
of fish or go after a Big Bass, I will do my best as a
guide to accomplish your goal.
Bass A Specialty Guide Service was formed in the year 2003 when I retired after
being a policeman for 31 years. During the time I was working full time I fished as
much as possible in local tournaments and just also for fun. While fishing was
able to meet many pro anglers and guides that encouraged me  that I could do the
same thing. After retirement we moved to Richland Chambers lake where  I began
taking friends fishing, they also asked me why I didn't start a guide service?
After taking the plunge into the professional guide business I determined that it
was much harder to get started than I first thought,  fishing trips were few and far
between. After a time I  began to get a few trips and now that has grown into what I
had hoped it would. I don't let anything get in the way of having fun on the water, I
enjoy what I do and love meeting new people, I always attempt to learn something
new from everyone I go fishing with, someone always has a new idea or fishes in a
different or better way.
I love to structure fish and deep water is a challenge, you have to learn to read the
graph and maps to locate the good structure that will produce the fish, however if
the fish are shallow that is where we will look for them.
I attempt in every way possible to see that my customers have a great day on the
water, we will make every effort to see that customers catch good solid fish,
however there are times when even the pros can't catch many fish. Fish have
never read a book that tells them where they should be and when the should
cooperate!
I specialize in Largemouth bass, however if they are not cooperating and the
customer wants to chase other species we will do so.
We fish from modern boats that have electronics and trolling motors, they are as
comfortable as they can be, however comfort depends on the weather and wind
conditions. If the weather is very bad and we have to cancel the trip we will
reschedule for another time. I can furnish all your tackle or you can bring your own
favorite. If someone breaks or looses the tackle it will be added to the bill. The trip
is for eight hours on the water, if the customer wants to go in for lunch we will do
so, if they want to eat in the boat that is OK also. I furnish water and ice, no other
beverages or food is furnished. No alcohol is allowed in the boat during the fishing
trip, that doesn't’t mix with fishing. Tips are accepted and are appreciated, I
accept cash or check on local banks, no credit cards are accepted. Deposits of
$50.00 are required and will be refunded if the cancellation is due to reasons
beyond the control of either party.
