Who he is on the water

Mike Gerry has been fishing Lake Guntersville since the early 1970s and running Fish Lake Guntersville Guide Service as a full-time USCG-licensed captain for over twenty-five years. He fishes out of a Ranger bass boat with active sponsor relationships and advertises both bass and crappie trips across 4, 6, and 8-hour formats for one or two anglers per trip. His published writing on the guide-service blog covers the best months on Guntersville, what to expect on a guided bass trip, and why the lake ranks among the top bass fisheries in the country — emphasis on teaching and helping inexperienced anglers become lifelong fishermen, not just putting clients on fish for an afternoon. Call 256-759-2270 to check dates before booking; all deposits are non-refundable. Verify the trip format, current rates, and cancellation policy directly with Mike at booking.
