About Captain Bly

Since I was a child, I have always had a passion for fishing. Being on the lake has been my saving grace. In fact, after traveling to the Kentucky Lake area so many times, the local people began asking me where in the area I lived. In 1999, my wife and I decided it was time to make a move. So, here we are.

I have always enjoyed fishing with new friends. When I was a child, I had an uncle that had a resort on Dale Hollow Lake in Tennessee. He also was a guide. I think he received $25 for a cabin per night. He also got $25 per day guiding. I ask him how he could charge people for taking them fishing. He said he had to buy gas for his boat. (18 cents per gallon back then) What a deal!

Now, I take people fishing. I love to meet new people and to see the excitement on a youngster's face when he/she catches a fish. (Sometimes the older ones get excited, too.)

I have over 30 years experience fishing Kentucky and Barkley Lakes. I have a 21 foot bass boat. I am state and Coast Guard licensed and fully insured.

It is not the amount of fish you catch or how big the fish are. It is the memories you take with you when you go home. That's my goal, to make sure you have a good fishing trip filled with good memories and lots of fun.
