    The Reel N Time Experience

    Your day is built around the season, the current bite, and your group, whether that's first-time anglers, families, or experienced fishermen chasing a personal best.

    Good To Know

    Common questions

    Before You Go

    Every guest needs a fishing license, but only one. Georgia and South Carolina honor each other's fishing licenses on Clarks Hill Lake, so a valid license from either state covers you on the whole lake. Captain James will confirm the meeting place, start time, and what to bring before your trip.
