Phenomenal Trip! Couldn't be happier! I knew fishing in July might be tough, but Cpt. Scott found us the fish! We caught 4 Bass over 5 lbs, biggest being 6.5lbs...and my dad had the surprise catch of a lifetime...a 6ft. Gator (they love bobbers!) Aside from the great fishing, Cpt. Scott was just fun to be around, and I couldn't be happier about this trip. My dad and I do this every year and to make these memories with him was priceless. Thank you Cpt. Scott for what is so far the best trip my Dad and I have been on.

Excellent Guide It was a cool wet day with Scott on Rodman. He did a great job keeping us in fresh bait and searching for fish. Being capable of good conversation is vital on days like this Scott had plenty of info on the history and makeup of Rodman. There weren’t many bass for us but some “quality” gar and mudfish (Bowfin/ Dogfish) kept us alert. Warning: Be prepared for sticker shock at the end of your day. We added $125 to our bill for live bait. I recommend Capt Scott if you are looking for a chance to catch a trophy on Rodman Res..

Great experience I’ve been looking into fishing over at Rodman reservoir for a few months now. You guys paired us up with Captain Scott England, and I’m glad you did. We landed around 15 keeper bass primarily ranging from 4lbs -8 may have missed 3 or 4. This guy Scott knows his way around that lake and river. My buddy landed his personal best, and I’ve never caught that many good sized fish on one trip. Thanks again Scott, damn good day.

Awesome Morning A friend and I went fishing a few weeks ago with Capt. Scott. We had a great time catching/releasing about 20 fish in four hours including some nice bass in the 4-5 lb range. Capt. Scott knows Rodman Reservoir like the back of his hand and consistantly put us on fish. We lost alot of bait to bowfin (mudfish) but even they were large and put up a great fight. We highly recommend Capt. Scott and I will definitely use his services next time.

Outstanding trip! My husband and I had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Scott on beautiful Rodman Reservoir. We enjoyed the incredible scenery and caught several large bass each. Captain Scott was extremely knowledgeable and patient with us while we fished. He took the time to point out the local wildlife (Bald Eagles and alligators) and ensured we had plenty of opportunity to soak up the surroundings. I highly recommend Captain Scott, and should we find ourselves in the area again, we will definitely book another trip with him.
