The goal of Bronze Back Guide Service is to provide a small mouth bass guide service for you & your family on the Upper James River any where from Brent Creek to Maidens, VA., for pleasure or business. Please see our information page for a map.

We can only make a 100% effort from our guides. There are no guarantees to anything but it is our goal to put you on "BIG SMALLMOUTH" during your trip and have fun while catching big fish. We are a catch & release program. We do take pictures and send them to you in 8x10 format.

As you may be aware from looking at some of the pictures you can see one of the biggest small mouth was caught in the freezing, pouring down rain on March 25, 2006 in the evening hours, please refer to our photo gallery picture number 3. On some days we do fish in bad weather, if the fish are on, it's in our best interest to get you that BIG FISH you came for no matter what conditions. Safety is an issue but, our boats are equipped with pretty fast jets to get you to safe grounds if needed.

We want to put you on the biggest catch of your life and all the while being safe too! We take pride in what we do and are very serious about fishing for BIG small mouth.

This is not a picnic, if you want a picnic than you are looking the wrong guide service. If you want BIG FISH than you have the right guide service. If you would like to book a trip with us and are serious about catching lots of real nice small mouth, please contact us at 804-749-FISH or send us an email to captain@bronze-backguideservice.com.
