    Default Help need fishing guide

    I have just been informed that I will be entertaining my SIL the last week of July; and while I would prefer to limit this experience to those venues with cold AC that just won't work. Any recommendations for fishing guides for Lake Russell, Hartwell, and Santee would be GREATLY appreciated. And any ones to avoid even more appreciated.

    TIA,

    stan

    I picked neither the time nor the participants. July sucks. And I am certain HE facewhatevers. This is a prime example of letting wife and daughter plan.

    Thank you WKSK I appreciate the info.

    Nathan Key with Shad Slinger Charters if you want to striper fish in the upstate is the best in my opinion. I've been with him to take clients out 3 or 4 times and have never had a bad trip.

    Striper fishing on wateree, murray, Hartwell, or clark hill would be your best bet. It won't be open on Santee.

    Plenty of catfish guides on any of those lakes and most will night fish so it is not 100 degree.

    i was hoping for Sister In Law.....sorry

    You'll have fun but it is a tough time of year for fishing. agree with others that a striper guide is the way to go. might as well stay closer to home, IMO

    For Largemouth on Hartwell use Jason Burroughs or Tyler Campbell

    For Lake Russell largemouth Jason Burroughs.

    Lake Russell striper and hybrid use Ricky Tipton. Let me know if you want their contact info

    As always the brain trust comes through! Quack, please send me info on those guys, thank you. Centurian, thanks for the night idea; that has some real merit. Now if I can only find a client to insist that I be out of the country that week everything will be dandy.

    For a overnight tent camp/ catfish guide trip Black Bart is your guy.

    Unless it's raining, too cold, too hot...

    Other than that, Bart's your mang.
