Guiding

Capt. Bert has been a fishaholic for over 50 years and has fished for everything from small panfish to 200-lb. tarpon.

He worked as a fisheries biologist for three decades with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources in the Waycross Office, so he is very familiar with everything southeast Georgia.

His specialty is fishing the Okefenokee Swamp, but he fishes almost all the systems within a few hour drive of Waycross.

Let Capt. Bert put his decades of experience in finding the peak bite to work to put YOU on the best bite possible in southeast Georgia.

Whether crappie or bass in a lake, redbreasts on a river, or big bowfin and pickerel in the Okefenokee Swamp, Capt. Bert can put you on the bite of a lifetime. Give him a call or send an e-mail to customize and schedule a trip.
