Company Description

Bill Vanderford owns Georgia's oldest registered fishing guide service and offers whole or half day trips on Lake Lanier and the Chattahoochee River.

We furnish everything for fishing except food, drink, and fishing licenses

Bill Vanderford has lived his dream, and now earns his living by fishing almost everyday. He also talks, teaches, and writes about his favorite subject throughout the country.

After a successful auto racing career in Europe, Bill turned to professional bass tournament fishing and simultaneously started his guide service in 1971. Though he won many local tournaments and placed well in national events sponsored by BASS, BCA, and Project Sports, Inc., his love was the slower-paced pleasure of taking other people fishing. So, in 1977, he gave up competitive fishing to concentrate on his flourishing guide business. Since then, Bill has become a fishing legend in this area. In fact, during 1993, he was inducted into the Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame in Hayward, Wisconsin as a legendary guide and the first southerner to receive this honor.
