Trophy bluegill guide service in TN

[tnpondmanager]

Hello all, thought I'd introduce myself on here. I have a small pond management company in middle Tennessee. I do everything from aquatic vegetation control to fish stocking to fish feeder sales to aeration installation to yearly management plans; one of my best bass lakes recently gave up six largemouth from seven to nine pounds each for two anglers over two days' fishing (the landowner just informed me yesterday and I'm working on tracking down photos of the fish, of which he says there are several). I also have been spending my own money for the past three years on a handful of ponds ranging from a half-acre to twenty-two acres, which I don't own but for which I have an agreement with all of the landowners that allows me to offer guided trips on the ponds for trophy bluegill. When I started working with the ponds, they were in pretty bad shape - the bluegill in most of them averaged 2-3", were just morbidly stunted. So a lot of hard work and more money than any sane, underemployed person would spend on somebody else's land later, the 'gills are starting to get pretty big


We're open for business now. The cost of a trip includes a custom rod - here are a couple photos of the rod I made for my first client, who is coming back in October:





Here's a bluegill rod I made recently for a bluegill enthusiast in Indiana:



Here are a few photos of bluegill and shellcracker that have come out of my ponds this summer:























PM me if you'd like more info. Thanks for having me on the site - it's a really cool place!
