Looking to reel in some quality time with your crew? Troy's Guide Service has you covered with our Large Group Charter. Whether you're planning a company team-building day, a family reunion, or just want to get a bunch of friends out on the water, we've got the boats and know-how to make it happen. Picture this: multiple boats, loads of fishing gear, and expert guides all at your service. It's like having your own private fishing fleet for the day!
Our Large Group Charter is all about flexibility and fun. We can accommodate anywhere from 12 to 48 people, spreading you out across several fully-equipped boats. Each vessel comes stocked with top-notch rods, reels, and bait, plus a seasoned guide who knows these waters like the back of their hand. We're talking about serious fishing potential here, folks. Depending on the lake and time of year, you'll be going after hard-fighting striped bass or hefty catfish. And let me tell you, there's nothing quite like the rush of everyone hooting and hollering when someone lands a big one!
When you roll up for your charter, we'll have everything ready to go. Our guides will give you the lowdown on the day's game plan, show you the ropes if you're new to fishing, and make sure everyone's geared up properly. We'll hit different spots on the lake, trying various techniques to get those fish biting. Might be trolling for stripers or bottom fishing for cats - whatever's working best that day. And don't worry if you've never held a rod before; our guides are patient teachers and love nothing more than seeing a newbie catch their first fish.
There's something special about being out on the water with a big group. The friendly competition, the shared excitement, the stories that'll be told (and maybe exaggerated) for years to come - it's all part of the experience. Our large group charters are perfect for mixing it up, too. You can switch between boats throughout the day, try different fishing spots, or just kick back and enjoy the ride if you need a break. It's like a floating party, but with the added bonus of potentially catching dinner!
Striped Bass: These hard-fighting fish are a favorite among our guests. Stripers, as we call 'em, can grow to impressive sizes in our lakes. They're known for their powerful runs and the satisfying 'thump' when they hit your lure. Spring and fall are prime times for stripers, but we can find them year-round. When a school of these bad boys starts feeding, it's non-stop action that'll have everyone on the boat hollering with excitement.
Catfish: Don't let their ugly mugs fool you - catfish are some of the most fun you can have on the end of a line. We're talking about fish that can easily top 20 pounds, with some monsters pushing 50 or more. They're bottom-dwellers, so we'll use special rigs to get your bait right in their feeding zone. Catfish are active year-round, but the summer months can be especially productive. There's nothing quite like the bend in your rod when a big ol' catfish decides to take your bait!
Every season brings its own highlights, but this year we've been seeing some real beauties come aboard. Striped bass in the 15-20 pound range have been fairly common, with a few lucky anglers landing 30-pounders. On the catfish front, we've had several groups bring in cats over 40 pounds - real rod-benders that'll test your arms and your drag! Remember, it's not just about size; we love seeing the smiles when someone catches their personal best or their very first fish. Those moments are what make these trips special.
