Goober Time Guide Service
Richmond, Virginia · Fishes James River (Virginia)
This outfit works the tidal James at Richmond, where trophy blue catfish are the headline fish and gizzard shad are the forage that concentrates them. The primary vessel is a 26-foot custom pontoon, and the operation also puts clients on the water in kayaks, rafts and paddleboards for float trips. Schedules run two, three, four, six and eight hours, so a day can be sized to a family outing or a serious session. Launch points shift with conditions, season and target species, and are settled with the captain when the trip is planned. Guests bring their own food and drinks.
