Kick'n Bass Guide Service

A large school of fish is one thing that puts me in a really good mood but there is also something else that makes me very happy while out on the water. Seeing my customers hooked up to a nice fish really makes my day. Welcome to my website!

I LOVE to FISH and MEET NEW FRIENDS! My goal is to share my lake knowledge and fishing techniques with you to make your day on the water both fun and rewarding. My greatest satisfaction is seeing a happy fisherman with a big smile on his or her face.

I've been a fishing nut for most of my 59 years and have lived on the shores of Kentucky Lake since 1998. I'm on the water every day whether I guide or not searching for those special areas that attract game fish and finding out the best baits and patterns that work here on Kentucky Lake. I am in the business to pass on things I have learned to you, the angler. Not only will I put you where the fish are, but I will also teach you how and where to use lures and techniques that you may have only read about.

My home is Kentucky Lake but my fishing and guiding experience is not limited to just this area. Since 1981 I have guided Wilderness Canoe Trips in the Quetico and BWCA as well as canoe trips in Missouri, Arkansas, and Virginia.

You are in good hands. I am U.S. Coast Guard and KDFWR licensed and insured as well as CPR and First AID Certified.

I look forward to meeting you and I hope by the end of the day, the friendships formed and the fish caught, will provide memories to last a lifetime!
