It’s Striper Time…Let’s Go Fishing!
Experience the beauty of Lake Hartwell and a chance to catch your limit of Stripers. We will furnish all the bait and tackle. There is no hidden cost for you. All you need to bring is your food, drinks, clothing according to the weather, and a cooler large enough to bring home your fish.
Portman Shoals Marina (gas dock just beyond the Galley Restaurant) is the departure point for our trips. See the Reservations page for rates and specials.

I have been fishing with Wayne White and Fish Tales Guide Service for over 10 years. His experience and knowledge of everyday fishing has made me a better fisherman. We often catch our limit and sometimes larger 18 and 20 pounders. I even had a few that were much bigger but couldn’t win the battle. Wayne has been an excellent resource for corporation excursions and highly recommend as a guide.
We hired Wayne White from Fish Tales Guide Service. We caught some striper and large mouth bass on a day when most people caught nothing. Wayne has excellent knowledge of lake hartwell and how to catch striper. We had a great day on the lake fishing with Wayne and we already are planning our next trip with him. I have fished Lake Hartwell all my life but each time I go with Wayne I learn something new about the lake. I would recommend giving Fish Tales a call today and get started on your next fishing trip
My wife and I have only fished a handful of time, and never fished for Striper before. Fish Tales showed us the ropes and we ended up catching fish like we were pros. I’d be surprised if anybody knows more about Lake Hartwell and catching Striper then Wayne White.
I enjoyed the lake and fishing with Fish Tales so much, I went back to Florida and put together a family reunion on Lake Hartwell. We all went fishing and caught over 100 lbs. of fish.
Just give Wayne White a call. I have fished with him over the last 3 years. He is the utmost professional and one of the best guides that I have had the pleasure to spend time on the lake with. Sit back, watch and listen. You will be a better fisherman when you are done.
