Captain Dylan May

Carson-Newman University

Lakes Available To Fish:

TN - Douglas Lake, Cherokee Lake.

"Dylan was extremely knowledgeable and great at breaking things down in a way that actually made sense on the water. He helped me better understand my electronics and showed me small adjustments that immediately made a difference. The session felt very relaxed but also incredibly productive. I learned more in a few hours than I have in months fishing by myself."

Zach Wolfe

Carson-Newman University

Lakes Available To Fish:
TN - Douglas Lake, Cherokee Lake

“Zach was awesome to work with and focused on helping me become a better angler rather than just catching fish for the day. He explained patterns, lure selection, and decision-making in real time which made everything click. I appreciated how hands-on and encouraging he was throughout the trip. Definitely worth it if you want to level up your fishing knowledge.”

-Brad R

Derek Rodriguez

Adrian College

Lakes Available To Fish:
MI - Lake St. Clair, Lake Erie

"Derek did an outstanding job explaining not just where to fish, but why the fish were there. He was patient, easy to learn from, and made complex concepts with electronics and boat positioning simple to understand. I left the day feeling much more confident running my own boat and finding fish on my own. Highly recommend fishing with Derek if you want to improve your skills."

What Anglers Are Saying

Each angler is selected for their ability to teach, communicate, and help you improve. Not just put you on fish for a day.
Andy Westfall
Douglas Lake

University Anglers has been extremely helpful in making me a better and more knowledgeable bass angler. I have used their services multiple times and have been more affective on the water, especially after their virtual coaching. Everyone I’ve worked with there has been extremely professional and shows a genuine interest in wanting to help me grow as an angler. The most recent time I used their virtual coaching they were extremely flexible and went above and beyond to meet with me a couple days before a tournament I was in. I ended up catching a winning bass at at that big bass tournament and if I hadn’t used University Anglers I wouldn’t have known what to do to catch it!

The amount of knowledge I gained using electronics was insane. I don't have the time to figure this all out all my own. I will be booking more trips across the south with University Anglers.

Corbin Abate
Ft Loudon Lake

University Anglers was worth the time. I can confidently say that without their help I wouldn’t have had the success I did on my high school trail. I would 100% suggest Tyler and his crew.

We don’t just help you catch fish today. We teach you how to catch fish tomorrow
