Thanks for visiting CartersLakeGuideService.com! My name is Louie Bartenfield, and I have been a professional fishing guide on Carter's Lake since 2004. Carter's lake is known as a "trophy lake" for huge spotted bass, but has monster striper, hybrids, walleye, panfish, and catfish (see links below). I fish over 300 days a year, not just on Carter's, but on several area lakes.

I can accomodate any skill level from "never-held-a-fishing-rod-before" to avid tournment angler. Between myself, and partner guide Bill Payne, we can get you on a successful fishing trip just about any day of the year. Give us a call, or send a booking request today!

 I've spent thousands of on water hours teaching sonar interpretation including Side Imaging Technology, graph orientation, sonar sight fishing and clear water techniques such as drop shots, jigging spoons, suspending jerkbait, deep water cranking, Fish Head Spins, and any other techniques for deep water structure fishing. If you want help learning your new sonar/side imaging unit, I am your guide !!!

I offer special rates for on water sonar trips, we will go in detail until you fully understand and comprehend your unit.

I also offer Trophy Float N Fly trips throughout the winter months !!!
