Spencer joined us on the James River for a few morning hours to see what the buzz was all about. We made the most of a short trip catching hickory shad, blueback herring, and a mess of white perch. Thanks for trusting @goobertimeguideservice to show you around the river.

Matt booked a trip looking for hickory shad. The bite was slow but we caught some and moved to white perch. When the sun went down, we transitioned to catfishing and caught two really nice fish in the last hour of the trip. Congrats on the 28.5lb blue catfish and flathead that was one snack shy of being a Troy fish.

We had Kinta, Mara, Xavier, and Elijah out for a trip on the James. We caught fish on every anchor and drift but it took some time to find some quality fish willing to bite. We had multiple fish in the 15-20 lb range with the highlight of the trip being a 21lb flathead. Thanks for joining us on the water. Can’t wait for the next one!

We had Tina, Lisa, Renee, and Brad out for a morning trip to memorialize their late father, an avid fisherman. We caught a bunch of fish, the highlight being when we caught 4 fish at once, 3 blue catfish and a striped bass. Big fish of the trip were multiple in the 15-20lb range, a 29.5 and a 31lb catfish. Hope you enjoyed a fun morning on the river. Hope to see you again soon.

Spawn is quickly approaching and the large blues will be shutting down. We have a few spots left in April. Grab them while they’re here!

While the big catfish are in spawn we will be giving them a break. We will still provide services for eater fish, crappie, striper, white perch, and flathead catfish in a different stretch of river. These trips can be on the boat, kayak, or whitewater ready. Let’s go catch some fish!

We had Jordan, JJ, and Garrett out for a short trip of night fishing. With a cold front and rain through the trip, the bite was a challenge. We picked through a few small fish before solidifying a new PB blue catfish just under 30lbs. Way to tough it out in the rain!

We went on a scouting mission for an upcoming guide trip and found some slab crappie among many other species. Once we dialed in the pattern it was nonstop action and a heck of a lot of fun. Fished a few hours and finished the morning up with crappie, white perch, yellow perch, bluegill, catfish, chain pickerel, and a nice bass. This style of fishing is a lot of fun for the whole family. Come on out and join us!
