Also please provide your own IGFA approved measuring device if you wish to submit records. I will have an IGFA certified scale on hand to assist with your record submission. Definitely think about your wife/significant other and kids for the records as well! The small fry, junior, and women’s categories have plenty of records that we can break!
Pre-baiting on guided trips can be added for an additional fee if distance and timing allows me to travel to the lake in advance. The pricing may vary based on gas and bait prices.

What To Bring On Trips- Food and drinks for the day, cooler, boots/water shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty, and waders in cold weather. Rain gear might also be good to bring depending on the time of year. I provide chairs, a folding table, shade canopy, and a cooler on all of my trips if needed. Usually we fish with all of my fishing equipment on my trips which is ready to go. If you choose to use your own equipment, please ensure that the line and rig setup is approved by me. I usually recommend braided main line of at least 30lb test, with the optimal setup being 50lb test braided line, 12 foot 3.5lb test curve carp rods, reels with at least 300 yards of braid line capacity plus backing line.
