Your Expert Guide on Bass Lake

The Man Behind the Net

Independent and locally based out of Miller's Landing

I’m Mike Beighey, and I’ve been fishing Bass Lake since I was in grade school. I’m a true local, and for over 60 years I have been fishing this lake with friends and family.

Unlike large commercial operations, when you book with me, you fish with me. You get the benefit of decades of local knowledge from someone who knows this lake's patterns and hidden spots better than anyone. I pride myself on having the patience to accommodate every skill level—from seasoned anglers looking for a trophy to families with children holding a rod for the very first time.

My philosophy is simple: Fishing should be fun, safe, and successful. That’s why I operate with a straightforward promise: 100% Hook Guarantee: If you can't get a fish hooked, the trip is on me.

Come aboard my 21ft Sun Tracker, relax, and let a local expert handle the details. I look forward to making your trip the highlight of your vacation.

Our Target

Fish Species We Target

Kokanee Salmon and Rainbow Trout are the only two species that we guide for.

Rainbow Trout

We enjoy steady action on Rainbows all winter long, but the bite really ignites as the weather warms up. Spring and early summer usually offer our most productive days, where it's not uncommon to have double-digit hookups before lunch.

Rainbow Trout

Kokanee Salmon

These energetic landlocked salmon typically start biting in late spring and provide thrilling action all summer long. Known for their acrobatic fights and delicious meat, they are a favorite target for anglers looking for a challenge.

Kokanee Salmon

The Vessel & Tackle

And The Gear We Catch 'Em With

We use only the best to ensure your success.

The Boat

21 Ft Sun Tracker Fishing Barge

Comfort on the Water: We fish aboard a 21-foot Sun Tracker Fishing Barge, specifically chosen for its stability and open layout. The boat is shaded for the comfort of the people fishing. Unlike cramped fishing hulls, the barge offers plenty of room to walk around, comfortable seating for everyone, and an exceptionally smooth ride.

Capacity: Comfortably accommodates up to 5 guests.

The Rods

Lamiglas

Professional Grade: We proudly equip our boat with Lamiglas rods, the industry standard for strength and sensitivity. These high-quality rods give you the control needed to feel the bite and confidently land trophy Kokanee and Trout.

The Tech

Scotty Downriggers

Precision Depth: To ensure we get the bait exactly where the fish are hiding, we use Scotty Downriggers. Known for their precision depth control, these units allow us to target specific water columns with accuracy, leading to a more productive day of fishing.

The Guide Is Licensed, Bonded, And Insured.
