Expert-Guided Fishing on Lake Murray

Reel in the Big Ones on Lake Murray

Get ready to wet a line and make some memories on Lake Murray! Our 4-hour fishing trip is perfect for anglers of all skill levels looking to tangle with some hard-fighting Striped Bass. We'll be cruising the lake's hotspots, with your experienced guide sharing local knowledge to put you on the fish. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time holding a rod, we've got you covered with all the gear and know-how you need for a successful day on the water.

What to Expect on the Water

As soon as we push off from the dock, you'll feel the excitement build. We'll spend most of our time trolling - that's when we slowly cruise with baited lines in the water, waiting for that telltale strike. It's a relaxed way to fish that's great for chatting and enjoying the scenery while still having a good chance at hooking into something big. Keep your eyes peeled for other species too; depending on the season, you might just reel in a bonus catch! This laid-back approach makes our trip perfect for families and newbies, but don't worry, seasoned anglers - there's plenty of action to be had.

Top Catches This Season

Our main target on Lake Murray is the hard-fighting Striped Bass, but we're always ready for whatever decides to bite. We use a mix of live bait and artificial lures, trolling them behind the boat to entice those big stripers. Your guide will be right there to help you set the hook when a fish strikes and coach you through the fight. We'll also show you how to properly handle and release your catch if you're not keeping it for the dinner table. And speaking of dinner, if you're lucky enough to land a keeper, we'll even clean it for you so it's ready for the grill when you get home!

Species You'll Want to Hook

Striped Bass: The star of the show on Lake Murray, these powerful fish put up an awesome fight. Stripers, as we call 'em, can grow upwards of 30 pounds in these waters. They're most active in the cooler months, but we can find them year-round if you know where to look (and we do!). There's nothing quite like the rush of a big striper peeling line off your reel - it's an experience that'll have you coming back for more.

Blue Catfish: While we're primarily after stripers, don't be surprised if you hook into one of Lake Murray's monster catfish. These whiskered giants can reach over 100 pounds, though most catches are in the 5-20 pound range. Blue cats are opportunistic feeders, so they'll often hit the same baits we use for stripers. They're excellent eating too, with firm, white flesh that's perfect for frying up at your next fish fry.
