“BIG Fish ON” 2011 Boat Records Fall in the Final Week of the Year!!
We closed out 2011 in style by breaking several Lake Lanier 2011 BIG FISH ON Lake Lanier Fishing Guide Boat Records.
Scott Shenk kicked things off by landing a nice 32 pound Striped Bass December 29, 2011 while his sons Ryan, Anthony and Warren were cheering him on. This was not only Scott’s biggest Striper but also his FIRST! He is probably ruined for life. Great job guys.

This was also a week of multiple species as Anthony caught a nice 6 pound catfish while his brother Ryan was reeling in a small Striper. That’s right; a catfish caught on a free line Herring while fishing for Stripers!

Warren then decided to get into the act with a nice Lake Lanier Striper. We also caught a good number of spotted bass, which made it three different species for the day!

Not to be outdone, on News Years eve Patrick “no socks” Hayes also caught a 6 pound catfish while his friend and host Reed “O” Smith was landing a Spotted Bass. The 6 pound catfish tied the 2011 boat record set just two days before.

Within 15 minutes Reed “O” Smith then caught a 6 lb Large Mouth Bass, which are fairly rare in Lake Lanier and our first Large Mouth in several years. Clearly a 2011 boat record.

Then Jack “Lucky” Barton got into the game by landing a nice Lake Lanier Striper, which set the boat record for number different species in one 5 hour trip. Nice job done by three 16 year old young men.

This was a great year for Big Fish On Guide Service and we would like to thank all of our clients for their business and most importantly for their friendship.
Sincerely,
