The boat you’ll be using is a 21’ Excel Catfish Pro that can sit up to 3 guests. It runs on a 150 HP Suzuki outboard and is outfitted with a fishfinder that uses GPS technology and a Minn Kota Ulterra self deploying trolling motor.  We are Coast Guard compliant with the new required regulation of having Type 1 Coast Guard approved Personal Flotation Devices aboard for each person.  We also keep an emergency radio on board.

The lovely species you can chase on your trip include Catfish and the occasional Striped Bass and Drum. You can use heavy tackle bottom fishing, trolling, as well as drifting and dragging to reel in your catch. If you plan on keeping what you catch please bring a cooler with ice. We release all big fish. Also, alcohol is not allowed on the trip.

Captain Billy takes care of all the needed rods, reels, and tackle. You should bring some food and drinks as well as your Tennessee fishing licenses.

These bountiful freshwater grounds are waiting for you, come aboard and have a great day of fishing in Tennessee!
