California - Big Mike's Freshwater Fishing Charters
United States


Whether you are an experienced angler or just want to see what all the excitement is about, let Big Mike's Charters take you there. We think you will not find a more experienced, harder working and more professional fishing team anywhere. With over 25 years experience of Chartering Fishing Trips and Charity Tournaments, we have scanned the state and picked the "Best of the Best" for your fishing enjoyment. We know the seasons and the weather, and we guarantee that you will have a courteous crew, a safe voyage, and we will do our best to make sure that you catch fish.

Peacock Bass Adventures and its sister company Golden Dorado Adventures were founded by Dr. Gary Laden, a physician, world record setting angler, writer and photographer with 22 years of experience fishing in the Amazon watershed and throughout South America. They will offer you the best peacock bass and golden dorado operations in South America. With their years of first-hand experience, fishing literally every peacock bass and golden dorado operation throughout South America, they've gleaned the experience to know when and where to schedule your fishing adventure for optimal results. They realize that you will be spending your hard earned money on a trip of this nature and they don’t want you to travel to South America to be met with unfavorable conditions and limited fishing success. They don’t obtain their information about the lodges they represent from a slick brochure or read about them in magazines. They visit each lodge on a regular basis and have personal long-term relationships with all of the lodge owners they represent.
They’ll help you bond with a special client; rekindle an old friendship; share the spirit of fishing with your family or just enjoy a trip with your good fishing buddies.

Rich Tauber's fishing career started in the early seventies. In his rookie season as a professional angler he won the "Western Bass Angler of the Year," nudging out "Hall of Famer" Dee Thomas for the title, and is still the youngest fisherman in history to ever win that title. Four years later he won the largest organized fishing event in the world; the U.S. Open.
Guiding and fishing is not just something Rich does on the weekends, this is his full time job. He started his fishing guide service in 1977, and today is available 7 days a week. Unlike most guides, while on a guide trip, he does not fish. There is nothing worse than hiring a guide who is the first to cast at all the best targets.
The day is yours, Rich wants to make this the best fishing experience of your life. A fishing trip with Rich is sure to be a special experience for you, your friends, or family.

Will Hesch, owner and guide says:
"For the past 28 years, bass fishing has provided friendship, income, sport, relaxation, challenge, dreams, vacations and many of my favorite memories. I taught my wife to fish and she has become an excellent angler. Our son is a “natural” who can catch fish anywhere with anything, when he took his wife on their first date they went fishing! Our granddaughter is another natural and just may be the most passionate angler in our family."
"I love to teach, both of my parents were teachers and it is definitely my second “passion". I have been guiding here on the Central Coast for 20 years, I think you will be absolutely satisfied with the experience of fishing with me on one of our beautiful lakes. Many clients comment that they caught more fish in one day with me than over an entire season on their own. I look forward to the opportunity to spend a day with you and those you love, teaching you how to catch bass so that you, like my son Jesse, can catch bass anywhere you go."

Marc Mitrany is a professional Bass fishing guide and instructor on Lake Casitas, Castaic Lake, and Lake Cachuma in the beautiful state of California. Located just a few minutes from Ventura, between Malibu and Santa Barbara, Lake Casitas is the jewel of the Ojai Valley, where luxury rules and legendary bass fishing reigns.
When you want smokin' bass action, Lake Casitas is the place to cast if you can outsmart one of the really big ones, you might just go home with a world record and millions of dollars. We will provide you with professional bass fishing instruction. Two of the top-10 heaviest large mouth bass in the world were caught in Lake Casitas. It's no wonder that World Wide Fishing Guide and Bassin' Magazine is calling it one of the top five large mouth bass lakes in the nation.
