Enjoy a beautiful day on Lake Lanier cranking in one of Georgia's most sought after game fish, Striped Bass! These Stripers fight hard and are excellent on the table. Big Bite Charters is here to help you catch them! Captain Andrew will teach you the best ways to go after your trophy and catch fish more easily on any future day of fishing.

Captain Andrew's quick 24' Blazer Bay boat is equipped with the latest Hummingbird, Minn Kota, and Power Pole technology to constantly keep you on the bite. The boat is powered by a 300 HP Mercury engine that will take you to your fishing spot in no time.

Striped Bass is the start of the show but it's not your only target. You can also go after Spotted Bass and compare the action you get from these targets. Try out different techniques and see which one brings the most success.

All the fishing equipment, bait, lures, rods/reels, tackle, and coolers of ice is provided free of charge. The only thing you need to bring is your food/drinks for the day and a GA fishing license. You may also request a pickup by boat anywhere on the lake as long as it's within a reasonable distance from the fishing grounds.

Big Bite Charters is looking forward to sharing a great day of catching and unforgettable memories on the water with you soon!

    We had a great time and caught some real quality fish. Andrew really knows the lake and is in tune with the fish habits. We moved around and stayed on the bite all day.

    Best Trip We've Been On

    Weekday Full Day 6 Hour on August 20, 2024 • 2 adults

    My wife and I booked a trip with Big Bite Charters and Captain Andrew Hammond to celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary. We have been on several charter fishing trips in the past but this one was ABSOLUTELY the best we have ever been on. The trip started off good with the captain being at the dock early and ready to get to work. As with any Striper fishing trip we spent a few minutes tracking them down as they always roam around during the night but in no time Captain Andrew found them and had our rods in the water. Let the fun begin! I can't give enough praise for Capt. Andrew. He worked tirelessly keeping our rods baited and in the water for the entire trip. His knowledge, skill and experience is incredible. We not only had a great time catching fish but also an enjoyable, informative, and absolutely delightful time. His equipment is outstanding, clean and well maintained. SO... if you are looking for a awesome charter Big Bite Charters with Captain Andrew Hammond is the one to choose.

    February Striper Fishing

    Weekday Pro Angler 7 Hours on February 17, 2024 • 2 adults • 1 child

    It was a cold cold morning. Bite just wasn’t there all day. We were marking tons of fish all day but just couldn’t get them to bite. Cap Andrew was on the fish. Just this this time of year all the striper just are all over the lake scattered and sometimes they’re hungry and sometimes they’re not. Tons of bait fish in the water and they were chasing them. Weird we fished with herring and rainbow trout. Fished all depths from 5 ft up to 80 ft. Worked ridges, deep channels, dead drops, brush piles and wherever we could find fish. Haha. Just a tough day on the water. But the prize striper came about 30 mins from pushing off the dock this morning. Fun day and learned a lot. Fantastic Guide!

Great attitude, super personality and all-round good guy. He deserves your attention if you're considering a future fishing trip. - Mark from CA

    Half day with Captain Andrew

    Weekday 1/2 Day Morning 5 Hour on June 22, 2022 • 3 adults • 2 children

    Got this trip to surprise my husband for his 40th birthday! I booked it for him and my two kids. My husband and kids couldn't stop telling me about how much fun they had. They told me Captain Andrew was so knowledgeable and helpful and made the trip really memorable. He told them where to meet them and it was the perfect start to my husband's birthday. Thank you Captain Andrew for making this such a fun and memorable trip. Definitely will book again!
