Sean Signore, Captain at Southern Outdoor Sportsmen
I have been fishing all my life. I grew up in Virginia fishing the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers for just about everything. Smallmouth bass to giant catfish and Striper. Over the last 9 years, I was a guide in Tampa Bay and in the summers I would guide in Alaska for Salmon and trout.
Now I have moved to East Tennessee, North of Chattanooga where my last guiding adventures will begin. There are 2 major Dams in my area. Chickamauga and Watts Bar Dam. Both offer fantastic Fishing and a chance at a fish of a lifetime!
You will be fishing from a luxurious 2022 24' SeaArk Big Easy with all new equipment, tackle, and electronics to find and land your trophy. Don’t forget to buy a fishing license before the trip!
You will fish the famous TN river in eastern Tennessee in the Chattanooga area for large Blue and Flathead catfish. There are also Striper in the River near the dams where we will catch our bait. After bait is caught we will motor down river to find your new personal best catfish. 4 and 6-hour Charters are available for up to 4 people max.
Any legal species you catch throughout the trip can be kept. While there will be free drinks available for your convenience during the tour, you are welcome to bring your own food and/or beverages. Ready for a family vacation? Bring your loved ones to our family-friendly business to join in these experiences.
Plan your trip today and go on the water with Southern Outdoor Sportsmen!

My wife and I had a great day fishing with Captain Sean... We caught a variety of fish!! My wife and I both caught our first "SKIPJACK" and they were both extremely good ones!!! My wife and I are bank fishermen, and Captain Sean provided us with enough of bait to take home and fish with!!! Captain Sean went above and above to ensure that we had a lovely trip, and he succeeded!!! My wife and I can't wait to go out with Captain Sean again soon... You couldn't ask for a finer Captain than Sean; he truly goes out of his way to make sure you have a good time!!
