Frequently Asked Questions
We try to answer any question that has to do with National Bass Guide Service
or fishing in general. Here are a few that we get a lot.

DO YOU GUARANTEE FISH?
No one can do that, or should. We guarantee that we will do our best to
make sure you have the opportunity to catch fish and to have a good time while
learning all we can show you. Your own personal skill-level and the attitude of
the fish will dictate how well you do. We believe that if you give a person a
fish they will eat for a day, but if you teach them how to fish, they fish a lot
more and skip a bunch of meals.

WHERE DO YOU FISH?
We fish the tidal Potomac River, which includes Maryland, Virginia, and
the District of Columbia. There is a 60 mile stretch that we fish not including
the other creeks and tributaries along the Potomac. We fish the same areas the
pros do during the BASSMASTERS Top 150. This diverse fishery can accommodate all
skill levels. The Potomac offers excellent topwater action, while also providing
challenging deep and shallow structure fishing. We can teach you to use just about
any bait. Most of our spots are just minutes from the ramps. We use ramps very
close to Washington, DC, Crystal City, and Alexandria. For your convenience, we
can also meet you at other ramps along the river in Maryland and Virginia.

DO YOU OFFER SANDWICHES?
No, we do not. We are not licensed with the health department to offer
or sell prepared food. We have an on board cooler to keep your food
and beverages cool while we fish.

CAN WE KEEP OUR FISH?
We practice catch and release as part of our conservation effort. If you
would like to have a fish mounted, we have a taxidermist who can do a replica mount,
and ship it to you when it is completed. A replica looks like the real thing, and often lasts longer. If you want to eat fish, there are other
species that are better eating than bass, like catfish, which we will allow you
to keep. Keeping snakeheads is also encouraged! They are a GREAT eating fish!

DO YOU OFFER DISCOUNTS FOR MULTIPLE DAYS?
Yes, if you make a reservation for more than 2 days of fishing with us,
we will discount it for you. Call us for more information about the discounts.

DO YOU OFFER CORPORATE OR LARGE GROUP TRIPS?

your group.
